Detaljerad beskrivning
• Vänligen förklara ditt förslag exakt och koncist så att det är så enkelt som möjligt att förstå vad du menar.
When loading the table for my first play of this on this site, a message was displayed along the lines of "the artwork for this game is being reworked by the publisher". (I can't cut-and-paste it here verbatim because I had to start the game, but the specific text is not relevant to my suggestion.)
Whenever this new artwork is ready, it would be very much appreciated if players were given the option to use the current, original artwork of the game. Not only is the original artwork more appealing (a personal preference, certainly), but I suspect that the newer artwork will be more resource-intensive to display, much as the new artwork for Carcassonne has caused a lot of problems for players who don't have the latest, greatest hardware.• Vad har du för webbläsare?

This option has been enabled for Carcassonne players, so there's no principled reason why this should not be available for players of this game, too. Thanks!

That is certainly my intention, provided the publisher allows for it. You bring up a good point on resources. I believe all images are preloaded, even if not used. There is something special I need to do in that case to prevent it. I'll make a note for when the new artwork arrives. Thanks!

Thanks for your quick acknowledgement. :-)
I'm not quite sure what "preloaded" means in this context... but allow me to expand upon what I mean with respect to the Carcassonne tiles:
When playing that game, I use the first edition artwork. However, because the tiles for the Princess & Dragon expansion are only available in the newer art style, these tiles appear in that newer style alongside the older artwork.
Thus, whenever my games load, the older-style tiles appear immediately, and then I watch as the P&D tiles slowly load afterwards—first a blurry version that progressively "scans" to be clearer (wish I knew the technical term for this).
Anyway, it's pretty lame to have this needless resource hit. :-/
Saint Petersburg is currently one of the least resource-intensive games that I play on this site, and it's also one of my favourites overall on- or offline, so I'm really hoping that the publisher's decision will allow me to continue enjoying the game. Either way, thanks for your work on its implementation!

I assume this is asking that it be a *user* preference, like a "skin", and not something that is chosen by the table creator for all players at that table. Correct? That's better for user loading times and such.
Also it makes it clear that this option does *not* have anything to do with whether 1st or 2nd edition card prices are in effect.
I suppose you will need to "doctor" a few of the card images (Judge, Observatory...) so that the price remains independent of the skin.

I strongly agree, and also note that in two other games artwork "enhancements" are an interface downgrade:
Dice Forge (the animation of the dice coming down is seen as very flickering ad distracting gray lines).
7 wonders (where now it is harder to see what others have on limited screen real estate).

The second edition is now available. Art is linked to the chosen edition (as I don't have vintage card matching the second edition delta).
