Server Version#: 1.43.3.10793  
Player Version#: 4.160.0

The update to plex web [4.160.0](https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-web/20528/470) not only adds showing all available ratings but also adds a ugly bold black background to the country certification:

**Before - Version 4.159.0:**

**After - Version 4.160.0:**

Notice the 15 certification in both screenshots. This is ugly and does not match ANYTHING else on the page. IMO it should be removed …

Oh ■■■■, I now see this is how certification is formatted in the updated mobile experience. I guess that crap as started to bleed it’s way into the webux.

Booooo!

Personally, I like it better – the earlier l&f makes the “15” easy to overlook.  
Probably a question of personal taste?!

I think this is a typical “cheese moving” complaint.

The “before” screenshot illustrates well, that the certification number blends too easily into the playtime – particularly if the rating system only uses numbers, and not somehing like e.g. “PG”.  
This annoyed me several times before, so I deem this current change an improvement.

Cool, I’m in the minority again. I’m okay with that.

For me it’s too aggressive and is the first thing that draws your eyes. It stands out and appears out of place. Anyhow, I’ll leave it there…
