so whilst you see "oh a ui change for the action bar, they are wasting time" what do you think that 20 minute fix by someone on the art team detracted from really?
it was probably a lot more than 20 minutes, and the point is if you have something thats broken you don't pretty it up. You FIX IT, then make it look nice. Otherwise you get one of 2 things. Either future UI coders are limited by the artwork, or you have to do new artwork.
