Can anyone remind me just what the fuck was wrong with the initial interface anyway, that lead to this edit war? How is making it darker such a good idea?
And, Ismaul - yes, the Codex provided many ideas for the interface. But it's still Elhoim's work, Elhoim's baby. He's been working on it by himself for 3 months, and for it to become a group project, "their project", in the last hundred meters, doesn't seem quite right.
It's not just about who gets credited. It's about who's work it is. I don't know about Elhoim, but if I worked on something for a long time, I wouldn't want someone to come and edit it, even if he didn't want crediting, because then it would stop being my own work, no matter what the credits said.
Also, oltronix, I like your interface from an artistic standpoint, it's much better that Elhoim's original. But still, as far as gameplay goes, is that change really necessary? Does it actually help more than hurt?
