Where Did The Planet On The Poly Logo Come From ? Support Apolyton

Perhaps I just failed to notice it earlier, but I am sure I didn't. On the 'Apolyton Civilization Site' link at the top of the page there appears to be a picture of Saturn behind it. When did this happen? I am sure it must have only happened overnight!

I find MOO3 settings to be far easier on the eyes than the default settings.

Ah, that explains it. I was curious why no one else had noticed it... I was curious whether it was something specific to the style I was using...

Whoops, I was a bit confused. MOO3 is probably the best non-default style. It's that SMAC one that nearly caused blindness.

Yes, the SMAC style almost hurt my eyes too, after I used it for a while.

Funny, because the SMAC section in Poly is far from being unreadable.

Maybe some of the posters think that the few minutes they spent with that sytle were almost like an eternity...

I did. But I might try it once more.

The SMAC style is too dark for my monitor, but the Moo3 quite cool. I'm not sure I want to give up the CTP2 style yet though.

Could be great that Apolyton change the page view according to client time or server time, but looking the server load problems I can't imagine this implemented.

I agree with all the people who said that the MOO style is the best. I wonder why more people don't use it.

The planet in the logo makes it look much better.

The SMAC style would go better with one of SidGame's color schemes for ACN.
