Maintenance for the week of May 18:
• NA megaservers for maintenance – May 18, 4:00AM EDT (8:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC)
• EU megaservers for maintenance – May 18, 8:00 UTC (4:00AM EDT) - 13:00 UTC (9:00AM EDT)
I always try to position the view so the compass is on the sky, or a solid color background. It makes it easier to edit out in Gimp. But yes, hiding everything would be great.
