Im okay most parts of the new patch, Drake and Hurricane nerf had to come on let's be honest.

The only thing I can't really see the point of is the little new gray box around corporation logos. What purpose does it serve? Was is made to make new players distinguish easier between NPC corporations and player corporations?

I for one prefered the sleeker looking no gray box corporation logos better.

I'm not a fan of the grey box either, not like we can change it though.

I hadn't noticed it, but now I have. And I think I like it.

Aesthetics. I know it is a strange concept for some. But aesthetics.

I like it.

I couldn't find what you meant and had to check several logos before I realized that it only applied to the corps that were "full" and thus needed this border to show you where the edge of the logo was.

Having a logo the fully uses the space this gray box has no effect on my logo :D

Yep, this needed a thread.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I dont really mind the grey box because I dont ever spend much time looking at someones or a corps info, what I do mind is the big ass sunburst show system info thing and the 'A' A Route thing. The UI doesnt need more stuff added to it, it needs things taken away or at least an option for a minimal UI.

Seriously- UI guys, when you wanna make changes or 'improvements' to the UI- get into a full fleet of 256 dudes and jump into a system with 1000 already in local, then have a 30-45 minute battle- then decide if you really really need to add this new 'thing' to the stuff already on screen.
