I LOVED the stained glass theme the old UI had.

A comparison between the new and old

Why do beautiful things have to be defecated on? I want my stained glass back. I don't want to hear they are too colorful either.

thoughts?

We still have the stained glass at the top of every UI window. Or at least most. The ones that shuffle in from the sides at least. Inventory, character sheet, skills, etc.

That screenshot is crazy though. The picture on the right looks so foreign to me. I feel like the image on the left is more recent than the one on the right...

Anyway, totally off topic, I was in a horrible mood all day but just got out of one of the fairly regular milestone-esque "here's what the team has accomplished the past few weeks". And it blew me away. Sometimes there's a new monster or something that's awesome, but this time it was just the realization of how things are getting checked off at a constant pace. They are churning away like mad men (and women). Got to see some of the runed skill effects for the first time, and it's going to be an awesome system.
