I'm working on the skin for the new ruleset - it's fun, and I already know how to do it. :) But I have a question for you CKs & players too:
What kind of icons do you like in the sidebar? Do you like them to have text labels right on them that you can read without hovering over them?
The new ruleset has even more buttons than before, and I want to make finding your way around as simple as possible. I'm working on just picture icons (much clearer than the old ones) but I'm not sure if the icon symbolism is going to be as intuitive to y'all as it is to me. Especially when you have Story Items, Maps, Notes, and Spells which all lend themselves to be indicated by little stacks of paper with different things on them.
The flip side is just using buttons with text on them - much more specific, but I guess less charming and fun to me. But maybe that's just me?
What do you guys prefer?
