here two images were suggested and mods said they are equally good.

Which one is prefered? Also this is an opportunity for others to suggest other adjustments.

(I've set the thread type to Needs Help though?)

I'm a bit slow, what's the difference?

The first version has an x and a checkmark next to "wrong" and "correct" respectively.

Fixed the thread type.

As for my vote, the ✅/❌ symbols help.

1.1 [tup]

(The difference between 1.1 and the current is that they use a × and an X respectively.)

1.1. The symbols are a nice added touch and are very easily identifiable over just the words "wrong" and "correct".

1.1, it helps make the image a bit more clear and interesting.

While evaluating both pics, it took me multiple looks to notice the direction of the arrows switches (left to right at the top to right to left in the bottom "right" example). I wanted to suggest somehow making the directionality of the arrows clearer like with a color fade, but it's pretty minor and the change may just be adding visual "noise".

Tweaked it a bit, unsure if for the better or worse.

I personally don't see the difference (I see the faded grey but I don't think it increases clarity) but if it's clearer that's fine.

Yea I can live without it. 1.1 is fine.

Differences I see in 13 compared to 1.1

  1. faded arrowheads
  2. solid bullet points instead of asterisks
  3. bracketed text moved down slightly

I like changes 2 and 3 and am neutral on 1.

Slight preference for 13 over 1.1 but it is slight. Both are better than 1.2 as the cross & tick help.

Works for me then. 13's in and tagged on the page, time to close. (And thank you for whipping it up ~Tropers/Amonimus smile)
