Ahoy Ahoy Everyone,
As many of you may know, from time to time we employ full REVAMPs and minor TOUCH-UPs to help beautify and fix some of our precious, older maps. In the Map Foundry, our beloved Classic Map has been under going some minor TOUCH-UPs for the past while. A dedicated anonymous TOUCH-UP artist, with the assistance of all you who have commented in the Foundry, has fixed a number of trouble and irksome issues.
=========================================================
- What Has Been Changed
Lighter army shadows to allow for easier readability of army coordinates.
Color coordination between continents and the legend.
Slight color alteration to the Australia continent.
Territory names visually improved for added clarity and beauty.
Irregular army coordinates properly centered.
***Additionally, the old Classic Map will be temporarily renamed "Classic!" to avoid cache issues.***
We hope that above alterations and changes can make for a better experience on our beloved Classic Map for all, while still maintaining its originality and classic feel.

A runoff vote really isn't necessary considering that all white shadow votes add up to 57%. As Twill mentioned having an option for toggling the artwork is not on the table because it would put other much more interesting and important changes even further behind.
I think this is a Classic the vast majority of members will enjoy. We'll let the dust settle and see how it goes before considering further changes so we can make an informed tweak rather than an emotional one.
Thanks to everyone for voicing their opinion and participating in this important process! We will be sure to notify you of any future major changes long before they happen to avoid anything like this again.
