Hah... I submitted a goblin (the green, with blood). BUT... I sent it in on my cousin's computer, thus you labeled it under his name (Gregory Nesbitt). Eh... mind changing the name to 'Ragnar'? -------------------- DEMON PLAY, DEMON OUT! Posts: 1582 | Registered: Wednesday, November 13 2002 08:00 |

What you could do is search by author so each person's graphics are in one section of the list. That way, you can skip through them all easily. -------------------- http://members.aol.com/risberg/blades/ Eternity approaches. Posts: 56 | Registered: Friday, October 5 2001 07:00 |

Daniel Ray may not have very... extensively creative monsters, and I still think mere color morphs aren't really worth posting because anyone with the right program who can learn to play Avernum, design good scenarios, and incorperate custom graphics into them can easily learn the use of filters and other options to morph colors... However, to Daniel's credit his custom terrain graphics are -very- good. He by no means lacks skill, and shouldn't be disregarded as an artist. Simply, the majority of his monster graphics are so simple of an edit that a great deal of people (myself included) do not find them worth viewing. But he definitely has a strong bead on custom terrain, and I for one hope he does more of them. -------------------- Razordisk Frisbee Golf Posts: 168 | Registered: Saturday, October 26 2002 07:00 |

Well, yeah, Necris is right. I love the Fancy Towers... The other graphics are rad too. I like some of Jigga's graphics, and ADoS graphics are great too. To everyone: Keep doin' graphics, please! :) [ Sunday, June 01, 2003 11:07: Message edited by: --Troubled queen-- ] -------------------- GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY TOMATO!

Um, the towers are actually color swaps too. About half of those terrains are. Posts: 422 | Registered: Tuesday, October 16 2001 07:00 |

I made a spear trap (a simple edit. I took the spear from some BoE graphic, I forgot which. It's not too good, but it gets the job done, I suppose.), an NPC (Mary, one of my scenario characters. I had this one for a while, but I wasn't releasing it. Now I'm releasing it, because I don't need it anymore. I'm done with the editors.), and some carpets. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

There's some quality stuff up there... thanks to Kennedy for wall template. I have no use for it, but I'm positive tons of others do. Good job on that. And man... that newest goblin sure is high quality! Whoever made that must be the smartest, most talented person in th-- uhh ok I'll shut up now. -------------------- DEMON PLAY, DEMON OUT!

Grr. I made a wall template first. Maybe I should put my Graphics Workshop up somewhere on the Web. It's got a bunch of templates, a nice big working space, and several pieces of equipment for BoE monster graphics, cut out from others. Quite useful, actually. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

Brett, I finally figured out why my graphics were low-quality. GIFs are a maximum of 256 colors! I tried saving them as JPEGs, but because Paint Shop Pro 6 is stupid, it blurs even when I save it with the lowest compression. I'll have to send them to you as bitmaps from now on, and you'll have to convert them to GIFs. Sorry to be a nuisance, but otherwise, the graphics are screwed up. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I like those images you have there, except to say again the repetition is a problem. Someone should make more special equipment images like the fancy mail, because I like a variety in the equipment. I mean, should +8 vorpal swords look like their mundane counterparts? -------------------- "The son of Skywalker must not become a Jedi." -The Emperor, Star Wars Posts: 281 | Registered: Saturday, June 8 2002 07:00 |

Fancy Mail is a color swap. Of course, this doesn't matter as much with items. But I think I'll make some good items later. Edits, most likely, since I can't make graphics very well from scratch. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

I'm wondering why you haven't put up my slope terrain yet, Brett; you certainly sounded quite enthusiastic about it in your mail ;) . I'm not impatient, just asking. :) -------------------- Encyclopaedia • Archives • Members • RSS [Topic / Forum] • Blog • Polaris • NaNoWriMo Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.

Whoops. JPGs, not GIFs. Convertign them to GIFs would be pointless. Anyway, I'm out of school now. I'll try to remake all my graphics and send them to you in BMP form tomorrow. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my audial and visual art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database Alexandria - The Blades of Exile Scenario database BoE Webring - Self explanatory Polaris - Free porn here Odd Todd - Fun for the unemployed (and everyone else too) They Might Be Giants - Four websites for one of the greatest bands in existance -------------------- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

There's too many graphics for my computer to load, and I haven't seen the Louvre graphics since there were 381. Could someone post the 5 newest ones? -------------------- -Zephyr Tempest, your personal entertainer Posts: 1779 | Registered: Monday, December 9 2002 08:00 |

All five are ADoS's: Giant Tree (Terrain)  Rugs (Terrain)  Mary (NPC)  Spear Trap (Terrain)  Paintings (Terrain)  EDIT: Put some descriptions over each pic. Forgot to do it when posting, then the board was closed. Lol, it was practically closed 5 seconds after I posted. :D [ Tuesday, June 17, 2003 10:27: Message edited by: Arancaytar ] -------------------- Encyclopaedia • Archives • Members • RSS [Topic / Forum] • Blog • Polaris • NaNoWriMo Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.

quote:Don't use JPEG. Jpeg is a lossy format, meaning that the images will lose quality every time you save them. At such small sizes it will also be hell for sharpness. It will also render white squares to off white, making transparency in the engine not work. 256 colours in itself is not a problem - nearly all of the avernum graphics are 256 colours. What you need to make sure is that is the right 256 colours that are used. To do this, convert the image before saving it as gif. Hopefully you will get a message box asking about colours - get it to create an "optimised pallete". This should mean that no colour detail is lost, as well as the shape being preserved, which is much better than JPEG. -------------------- Riot Shields Voodoo Economics It's just business Cattle prods And the IMF I trust I can rely on your vote Posts: 530 | Registered: Sunday, September 1 2002 07:00 |
