HI Brady,

I've been contemplating this and haven't yet been able to come up with anything I like better than what you've done here:

User:Bradyb1999/Sandbox/Wheat

and the comparable production building test page. I like this better than Barnswallow's mock up that retains the info box constraints.

Personally... I'm way over the info boxes. There is nothing in them I would need to know, as a new player or an experienced player, that I cannot get from the more friendly paragraph Summary.

I like the open layout of images, because many things have more than two states. Think of pets for example - there are easily 5-6 images to portray for each. Even farmyard animals would be great to display:

full / hungry / active / summer decoration / winter decoration

and the tabber fails utterly (udderly) to offer this, whereas the open layout would work great. I'll keep thinking if anything else comes to me, but otherwise, I give your new design a big thumbs up and would be happy to help on the work of transferring pages over to the new format.

BTW, I also Clash a bit still and when I started playing CoC I got a lot out of the strategy pages on the wiki. Our wiki here makes it very hard for players to find help from more experienced members I think. The comparable Gameplay > Strategy Guides, etc. doesn't exist here from our main menu. I guess some would argue it's not needed in a game like HayDay - but even the help or questions/answers section is hard to find.
