    Ahh, my eyes! (aka "staff" tag)

    Well, I don't know, maybe it doesn't bother anyone else...

    But the little "staff" tag. You know, like admin, inmate, and such. This new one, staff. Hurts my eyes. Well, maybe doesn't quite hurt, but it sure comes close. At least it really stands out on the page in an annoying kind of way. Could some kind admin maybe make it a little less bright, please? Like dark green maybe?

    TIA

    It makes you think that the person who has that staff-tag is in fact just making a parody on the real staff.

    Don't make too much fun of the tag.
    Markos has been busy with MSPaint for hours to get the tag done.
    It's not cool to make fun of his long hard work.

    I think it's beautiful. Gramphos has done a wonderful job with the Lime color.

    I love lime.

    I "Glow" !
    --
    at least it doesn't look like an overgrown hotdog- like the admin's.

    or some web-animation pre 1998 like the ugly blue ones.
    -

    this is the best looking badge.

    it stands out on both the blue and gray backgrounds of apolyton!

    Too much going on in that little box on the left...
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

    I like the red. It's the traditional colour for warning signs.

    Dark Cloud,

    I think the problem is that the title is too short. "Civ3 Stories Editor" does not break into two lines and has used up the flag space. Add a word or two to the title and see if that works better.

    Extremely Overworked Civ3 Stories Editor should do it.

    Well, I hope he didn't spend too long on that tag.

    I'm glad he's reverted to his original staff idea.

    That might be the problem!

    I'll try some tinkering and see if that fixes it.
