     Introduce a rudimentary way to check if they have the latest version
 of the game. (Part 1)

 The button icons contained superfluous pixels (see attached images [raw-
 attachment:gameversion_icon_old.png] and [raw-
 attachment:gameversion_highlight_icon_old.png]).

 I corrected them (see attached images [raw-
 attachment:gameversion_icon_new.png] and [raw-
 attachment:gameversion_highlight_icon_new.png]).

 This was done using Gimp, keeping in mind to:
 * ensure that the image mode is "RGB" rather than "Indexed", because the
 images use an 8-bit colour map (see attached image [raw-
 attachment:gimp_rgb_mode.png])
 * increase contrast for easier spotting of faulty pixels, e.g. by setting
 Transparency Check Style via the 'Edit->Preferences' menu (see attached
 image [raw-attachment:gimp_dark_checks.png])
 * ensure all wrong pixels have been removed by clicking on empty area on
 the canvas with the "Fuzzy Select" tool using the keyboard shortcut "U"
 (see attached image [raw-attachment:gimp_fuzzy_tool.png])

 The dark colours for UI elements in the Gimp screenshots are caused by the
 theme "Tactile" and do not influence the result.
