Is it just because I am on a retina screened Mac, or are the icons on the banner really blurry for anyone else?

The YouTube/STW ones seems to be the particularly fuzzy.

They’re just standard resolution bitmap images so are likely to look a bit naff on a retina display. Ideally, that type of thing is done using svg or (not quite as good for a number of reasons) a custom icon font.

Ah, thanks. I did wonder. Guess they will look bad on most mobiles as well then.

They are pretty blurry on my normal PC monitor - though I do view STW at 150% so that probably doesn't help.

Absolutely crisp and in 3D for me. And animated. Pay for the P and you too can have this service 😈

I'd like to believe you, Nick. But Graham's experience suggests otherwise 😈

Ahh. So you're the infamous PG Rahams.

I was of the understanding that this never happens to the admin/mods, so doesn't exist?
