Here's what it looks like after working on it tonight.


Wolf Snare

That looks so much better! It will be alot easier to familiarize with as a newb, guaranteed!

I noticed in this vision however, you attacked me. Don't.
Just don't.

Oooobviously it's because you wanted me to fix your ratio.

Wolf Snare

Bro, you're passive. Does this mean you intend to play aggressively? ...I mean, at the very least, you're thinking about it, right?
How hard is it going to be to make this new look a reality? I can't see anyone opposing the idea of simplifying interactions to avoid turn-overs in new members; not to mention it looks awesome! I reckon this should be implemented as soon as possible.

You're good Ollie.

This design will take a fair bit of coding. Much of what I have there doesn't exist. I can make things /look/ like this though.

Wolf Snare

Either way, I like where you're heading with it. Are you planning on eliminating food, or did it slip your mind when making this?

I never got around to making an icon for all the stats. The circle is showing your health, but I still need to get food and networth up there. I'll probably move food next to cash.

Not a fan of the salmon color.
At the risk of ruining Briar's career by disparaging her find of the famous Sackaleaderer horse...

Yes. I wear high heels Krowdon. Any tips on how I should do my hair?

Dark Claws

It's just a fancy name for Pink.
Welcome the most annoying person on Earth, oh look Dark Claws just walked in.

What happens when a permanent resident deletes their account?

Like an assistant

Shadow

Neat. The only thing I would change is make scores entries a little smaller so that you can fit more people on there.
<=holbs-.. ..-holbs=> <=holbs-..

Oh I donno.  I don't think it'd be too bad to implement.

I've got an idea on how to do the "Recent Interactions" summery, as well as cleaner way to do the full list.  Shouldn't be too bad, its just sorting.

GameChat, lol.  We've yet to find a good, light chatbox that would be suitable for including on every page load.  It'd be great if we could re-write the game so we could have chats like Gmail and Facebook - but I don't see that happening. 

A Find on the scores page is I guess doable, not sure I see the point atm.  If we had a thousand players maybe.

Not sure what your idea is for the health indicator ring around the ranking, I suppose we could make it fade between green - yellow - red.  I think that's doable. 
I notice you're still favoring abbrv. the cash/food/loyalty amounts.  Still not a fan, but again doable.
As important as health is in the game though, there should be a numerical % visible somewhere on the page.  I guess you might beable to get around that by having it jump several shades between 99% and 100% health, so its very obvious when you're back to full strength.

Adding little icons to the scores list would be fairly trivial.  You'd have to decide between making players choose from a pre-populated list or loading their own.  Perhaps ones that match the player's race.

The only thing on that page that's currently unattainable is the chatbox.  Otherwise it could probably be thrown together fairly quickly  in a few hours eventually.
A Goldfish has an attention span of 3 seconds...  so do I

The health indicator shows your rank only when it's at 100%. Otherwise it would look something like this:

That, sir, is a pipedream

this looks cool, and the layout looks a little similar to that of facebook, the chat/interactions and message/recent attacks

The messages icons at the top are a blatant rip off of Facebook.

Windy, the health circle is doable. We can use the CSS circles I shows you earlier. We could even use images.
