Details: When the dynamic map loads, there is a small blue control panel letting you select the visible layers. I suggest that the new default be: Flags On, all others off. This will closely replicate the behavior of the original dynamic map.
Please please do this. I very much dislike that the 'realms' selection is so high above the 'flag' selection and when you select realms I think the colours look horrible and makes it much more difficult to see what is going on. I like the scrolling and panning but I never use anything except flags. Well, mostly I just use the old political map. I also agree with Indirik that taking off the 'regions' overlay makes it look a lot better as well. That bright red is too garish.
Also, when you click on a region and the info box pops up, how do you get rid of it again? Can you put a little cross in the top right corner or something?
