[h2] 🎨 Visual Overhaul In Progress
[/h2][p]For over 24 hours, we've been working on a complete item icon rework to make everything more polished, consistent and professional.[/p][p]
[/p][h3]✨ What’s changing?[/h3][p] 📦 Standardized layout: All item icons will follow a unified structure with the same padding, same background, and clean edges.  [/p][p] 🖼️ Fresh visuals: Higher quality illustrations, improved clarity, and stylized consistency.
 🧪 Partially live already: A small portion of the new icons is already available for all beta testers.

[/p][h3]⏳ Update Delay[/h3][p]👉 Today’s update will be postponed to tomorrow evening.[/p][p]We're investing this time to finalize the last 50% of the icons so the full set can go live in one polished sweep.[/p][p]
[/p][h3]👀 For Beta Testers[/h3][p] ✅ A first batch of new icons is already live.
 🚧 The remaining 50% will be rolled out in tomorrow's beta version.
