I hate to be always griping, but does anyone else finds the new paperclip icons for indicating file attachments rather clunky? I like the old tiny "LEV" thing better.
Not that it'll matter I suppose, usually when I see a new level posted, a few seconds later I won't be reading the forums anyway.

I'd have to agree, I liked the LEV a lot better......but then I'm 'old school' and don't like change very well.

We had to change the "Lev" icon, since people started posting screenshots and other attachments. So posts without a Level still had the "Lev" icon, and a more generic icon was required to avoid possible confusion.
I actually like the paper clip, although I also miss the old Lev icon. Sniff!

Oh well, the icons, they are a-changing!
Suggestion from a Newbie?

Why not use one of the emoticons? You know like a happy face or the exclamation point. The paper clip doesn't do justice to the rest of the page, it looks a little out of place.

Well here's my 2 cents....
You should leave the level icon for the levels, and the paper clip for screenshots and other attatchments.
Doesn't that make more sense? You know lev=level?
We sure like to complain don't we?

Yeah, that would be best, but unfortunately I can only use one generic "attachment" icon for the entire forum. Hence the paperclip.
