Please return the Center option. It is the one button that I'm missing so far.

It sucks.  

This conclusion was reached by myself after a period of tinkering with the new system, and it is by no means a fault of the reluctance to relinquish the old in favor of the new.  It simply lacks the features the old system had.  Gone are button options, which have given us the classic "Do Not Click" button at the bottom of T-O's profile.  Gone are underlines.  And most significantly, gone are the justification tools. No longer can we achieve the simple task of centering text on the page without using an unwieldy amount of spaces.  Justification is a necessary part of any page layout, and to remove it is, to me, a very strange move.  I sincerely hope the devs will reinstate many if not all of these features in the near future.

We tweaked the in-game text editor for a few reasons.

First, the thing was huge. As more and more players access the game from mobile devices like iPads (which works great with Illy) or the Windows 8 app, we needed to take out some of the options that most players did not utilize.

Before:



After:



If you still need that fine-tuning and control, you can adjust the HTML. Most players who edited a lot will already be familiar with this.

Please leave any comments or suggestions below, and PLEASE report any bugs here so we can have them all in one place. :)
