Another mildly annoying thing with the Char info… The Info placement is not static. Every time you open the window, it reshuffles the placement of the avatar because it is visibly slow at loading the information and formatting. Additionally, it further moves it up or down depending on if there’s an alliance line or not. Instead of leaving the god-damn avatar static at the top of the area it tries to center it based on the height of the text cell next to it. Who the hell thinks this is useful, practical, desirable and good UI design? What the heck?
This is completely useless. This dynamic placement serves no purpose whatsoever.
Related to the above: I just saw this EXHILERATING line in the blog:
With the Photon theme enabled, new players benefit from:
Improved readability across windows, icons, and text
You care about readability but make the Char and Corp info LESS readable by introducing poor text formatting and the corp branding that inevitably interferes with readability.
Players: How impossibly bad at thoroughly thinking through your own developments and expectations can you be?
CCP: Yes.
