In the site finder before you embark to your fortress, the finder is useful, but the results display is distracting and annoying. Instead of blinking green Xes denoting found locations, change the background color of these tiles from black to green, or perhaps blue. In this way, only notes will flash, causing a much less painful experience.

If this could be extended to traffic designations too, my eyes would be content.

Agreed. Blinking is OK for some things, particularly slow blinking- but if it's too fast, or if it covers the entire screen, then it's really exhausting on the eye.
