They happen to be pictures of the same objects, but if you look closely, they are also at a higher resolution.

A good graphics program could handle the resampling, but a re-rendering of the images from the original models would give the best results.

DB: already heard of it, but I had forgotten that there was a component section in it...
Perhaps there are things that haven't been done yet (organic, psychic or cristaline components...), even if this picture source is huge. Maybe modders will have different needs, just let me know...

BTW : It was Fyron, not SJ, who was looking for specific component pics...

SJ : speaking about starfury graphics ? what is their exact size ?

There are already thousands of images in the componentpack; the point of it is to have one set of images, so players can download it once, and use it in many many mods.
Also so that modders have an huge instant image selection while making their mods.
And, also so small-time artists have a place to put their stuff where it will be seen and used.

I don't recall offhand what rez they are exactly (haven't made any images yet), and I've got to run off to work, but just opening a screenshot in a basic image editor should allow you to count the size.

Gryphin : Thanks for your comments , but I haven't done much in this affair (yet). At least wait 'til I have something interesting to show off before sending me flowers

SJ : I don't want to compete with the image mod (I don't think it's possible to compete with it anyway). I'm Just looking for ideas for useful pics. Surely I'll send them to the imagemod owner (Fyron ?) when I have something worthy.

I don't have starfury (wonder if anyone who isn't a beta tester does at the moment ?) so I can't make screencopies...
