In Windows Minesweeper, when you mark a mine its button doesn't "depress."
The button changes to a "bomb" face instead of a blank one, but stays up.
For me, that makes it easier to see what still needs to be done. Having
different colored numbers isn't all that important, as far as I'm concerned,
but maybe having the numbered squares have a slightly different background
color (pastel green or something non-intrusive) might be helpful, and give
the game just a bit of variety. I guess my meta-comment is that the "face"
of the game underneath the buttons just looks really "gray."
