I do graphic design on the side, and the Cave pages have been (honestly) bugging the crap out of me. lol; So, I've whipped up something in Photoshop as to what I think could/should be done with them. I don't think I need to show you guys what it looks like now, so I'll just show you what I think could be done with them. The biggest thing is that I think the Cave image is too large. It takes up most of the page. In the effort to stop people from having to scroll a lot in their prides, you've added a large image that you have to scroll past to get to the listing of even smaller prides. I am still a relatively new user here, so I am not sure if the images change or if they will be customizable later. That said, here is my idea; big pic, so I made it a link instead: LINK HERE I moved the "Destroy" button to the top for easy access, instead of having to scroll to the end, and shrunk the image to what could/would be a clickable link to the image. Either by putting it where it is now, when it's clicked, or opening it in an overlay image that'd move over the list. Click it again to shrink it back. Edit: As you'll be able to see in the posts below, they do plan on adding a featured lion among other things. That said, one of the options I thought of would still work well with layers. Hide/Unhide, for less user-lag and/or people that simply don't care to see the image. |

They are going to add a feature to put a lioness on display on that image, plus decors or items, it's not a good idea to make it shrinkable if it's going to work the way staff wants it to work. 0 players like this post! Like? |

I'v always sort of felt the cave image should be the background or something, behind the boxes. XD I honestly have never understood why there is just a large image sitting at the top of the page. Bat, when did they say that they'll be adding lionesses to the image? I must have missed it. 0 players like this post! Like? Edited on 17/08/16 @ 12:55:05 by Fonzie (#58378) |

^ Same. I must have missed that announcement/part of an announcement. That said, it was one of two options I wrote. Second option would be simply having a visible/hidden button. Not everyone is going to want that large image on the top of their pride pages, simply because they're there to get something done, not necessarily look at a picture. [In my head that last sentence comes out harsher than I want it to, that is not my intent; I am not trying to argue, and am just stating my opinion on the matter] 0 players like this post! Like?

it was on the news post introducing caves, they said there is going to be feature like that in future, when you will be able to chose a lioness or lion to put on the cave image. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Thanks! I swear I read the whole thing. ~ Looks again. lol The suggestion still stands though. :) Edit: I don't know how I missed that, but yup, they plan on doing a featured lion there. I still think it'd be cool to have a hide/unhide feature for it. 0 players like this post! Like? Edited on 17/08/16 @ 13:02:45 by LaughingWolf (#90224) |

Weird. I dunno, I'd still like to be able to minimize the picture; I already have trouble loading my lions pages, I don't want a bunch of stuff layered onto my den pages next x.x 0 players like this post! Like? |

that's why there is already a suggestion to make caves really optionable in the game adjustments forum, the fully opt out of caves is the title. So we can disable the caves and go back to old den look 0 players like this post! Like? |

No, I'm taking about the picture up at the top. xD Not disabling caves totally. I already know about that suggestion.. 0 players like this post! Like? |

the picture is a nice thing to be honest, but if we'd want to do anything with it then why just don't get the disable option, so there won't be any at all? Less loading, and as a shrinked one it would need to load anyway 0 players like this post! Like? |

You can actually already change the image size(and even the image itself) with CSS. Example of size change and Example of image change(well, sort of. I placed a drawing of my lioness and a random cub I did over the cave BG). For those with the CSS know how, the selector is this: div.col-md-9.col-xs-12>div>div 0 players like this post! Like? |

Nice. Though I still don't think anyone should have to learn CSS, or even a little bit of coding to get one image to shrink or disappear. Especially with the image (at the moment anyway) being of a rock wall. Many of the younger users may not be able to. Yes the page has an age limit, but honestly there are probably tons of youngin's in here. lol -- The hide/show button, which could be a small pic of the basic cave background like I showed in my preview image, to click on and like on some forums it hides/unhides the 'section' of information. 0 players like this post!

You're not the only one, though I've finally added a second one, with a whole one lion in it (for now). 0 players like this post! Like? |

Young'uns? I'm over 30, I don't know CSS, I don't care about CSS, and I never plan on learning any of it. I would like the option to shrink the image; it takes up my entire screen. Even if there was a featured lioness, I'd still want it smaller. 0 players like this post! Like? |
