We've finally added a news section to the launcher! We are aware that the account section has shrunken a bit because of this, which is why we have also increased the recommended size of the launcher.

Copying my reply from the other thread that popped up even before the official thread:
Quote:Does it [the news section] need to be that big though? I don't have a problem with a news section existing, but could it be say half the height it is currently i.e. two news stories high? It's fairly rare for more than two news items to be posted every day, and if there are more (and people actually want to use this to browse them rather than the website) the scroll function is always there. |

Any chance that news content will support supported languages (fr, de, jp, ru) anytime soon?

Not acceptable if you've got 8+ accounts, see EBR-68334. |

The launcher size isn't an issue. The fact that the news section doesn't collapse/hide like the patch notes/announcement section makes it seem very difficult to use if you have a lot of accounts. If you have over 8 accounts added the news section is STILL larger than the client section part because it just has a scrollbar (A GUI designer would have a lot of comments about why this is bad).

So you can actually resize it on the fly, just reduce the count parameter's value. |

It would save space in the launcher for accounts if you highlighted the latest dev blog, not the full list of stagnant dev blogs that devs hardly respond to anyway.
Alternatively, you could arrange dev blogs, advertisements, and accounts in three vertical columns so I can see a full list of all three.
That took two seconds to figure out, what is seriously the problem with you lot.

Hey would you look at that, no wasted white space. 10 accounts. More advertisement space. No loss of functionality.

At the supermarket, the important things you're most likely to require are in the back of the store. It's so you have to walk past the other things you are less likely to buy, in the hopes that you will see it and decide it's within your budget, and put it in your cart. Putting the accounts off to the right (assuming you read and scan left-to-right) is the same thing.
If you do it the other way, with the less important things on the right, it won't get as much eye traffic.
The accounts list is guaranteed to get traffic, so it's a slight discomfort but smart. Think of it as a compromise, I'm trying to sell this arrangement to vikings and I think they're more likely to understand things like "more advertisement space" and that what I want is placed off to the right.

And then I remember CCP employees are given three EVE accounts, and realize the tiny account menu is satisfactory for most of CCP and a good portion of EVE players.
