Personally... I think they look better. At least it looks like a sun now, rather than some amorphous blob of white light..
I agree, the old effect looked like a star that had issues holding onto its mass.
The new effect is more realistic in my opinion.

And what do you think a star looks like?
That's done with filters.
You mean, like something a camera drone might do?
To allow you to even be looking at a star in the first place? Or even blindingly bright laz0rs on the battlefield?

Sure. Lets downgrade a perfectly good effect just so we can say "Oh yeah, the camera drones do that. mmhm"
The new effect is a lot better than the old one, more realistic.
But could use some more improvement if they have time.

...EVE has nothing to do with realism so please stop trying to find "realistic" reasons for what they did with stars.
Yes, because the recent changes to the plantary graphics and postions had nothing to do with reaslism. 
I'm sure this isn't that last change people won't be happy with, but I do think people are making a "moutain" out of a "molehill" here.

I'm not sure where you get your information and/or data from - but locations of planets have not changed at all, neither are they going to.
"Postions" as to what type is at what orbit, among other things.

Yes we have been working with a Astro Physicist to produce planet types that are more realistic to there orbits and their star systems. Changing planet radius has a game play impact on existing player items so we tried to avoid that at all costs....
...Given that there was still 150 odd planets that we had to change radius on, but that is not bad give there is 67k+ planets in eve...

Except apparently for the 150 they DID move.
Only changed radius of planet (not radius of orbit), they didn't physcially move, since that would play hell with moons and POSes.
