Hmmmmm maybe someone who would like to contribute to the growing user-created library could fix that for us. Where are the units displayed just about perfectly?

If someone were to bring up the AllView game in a window, and go into the scrolling units view, wouldnt that be about correct? They could hit Print-Screen, switch to their paint program, paste that, snip out everything but the unit images, then save. Repeat as necessary.

I wonder if re-sizing the window would affect the captured image? Size the dominion window until the units look the correct size. Hmm set graphics display the lowest and opacity to the max. That might help also. Of course you wouldnt have the second image for the combat move but I havent found it hard to create a move by cut-n-paste and slightly varying the original. Its getting the original which is a pain.

Anyone reading here could do that for us. Even if they used the free paint program with windows and made one huge .bmp file with all the units on it that would help alot. Be a great addition to the library files at SunRay or some such site.
