UPDATED 3/15! Home Page Changes 3/13/2008 10:58:53 AM EST USA As previously announced, we have made some changes to the type of HTML that can be used in players home page. Most people will not notice any difference. A few people may have to make some adjustments to their home page. Here is what changed: 1. We no longer allow remote style sheets (these are style sheets located on other computers). You can still use style tags and CSS located within your home page. 2. Make sure to use the correct (long) url for links. This applies to Horseland pages also. (for example: instead of "/vownersd.hlid=1234" use http://www.horseland.com/vownersd.hlid=1234) 3. Don\'t use HTML comments. 4. We do not allow layouts that cover up the ads or navigation at the top of the page. If you have a cover-up layout, please remove it. We will give warnings to those who do not remove them, then they will be cleared by staff. Thanks, Horseland Staff ----- ^ These are the changes we have had to endure. Layout making -- a huge business on HL; without it, many players are left without ways to make money. Players go bankrupt. Players quit. Horseland loses their $30 per year paying customers. Having a gorgeous layout is no longer a luxury provided to us on HL. The quality of the game is disintegrating. We have to do something about this. --- [Update 3/15] - This petition is not at all about cover-up layouts. Most people couldn\'t care less about them. Layouts look just as good without covering up Horseland\'s ads. We aren\'t looking to make Horseland lose money from covering ads. We just want to be able to import our own CSS. It\'s harmless to the ads!

I have been reading through all the messages you guys are sending about how the CSS changes are breaking your shops and it honestly just feels like they are intentionally making it impossible to run a business here. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to reach someone who actually plays the game and understands that we need these layout tools to keep things running smoothly because this current path just seems totally disconnected from what we actually need.

I really never thought this would gain this much steam but here we are and it is honestly wild to see so many people actually speaking up about the layout situation. It feels like we are finally being heard even if the staff is still keeping quiet about the CSS changes which has been driving me up the wall lately.

Seriously? The layouts were the best part of this game. So many of my friends are quitting because of this update.
