edit: hey, this would be even cooler - what if it were implemented as a PHP script so all you'd have to do to add to the imagemod is upload a BMP to a special page, and the script would take care of the rest... bingo, realtime updated imagemod with no need for SJ or Fyron to add stuff!
Taking out any sort of peer review in the process is IMO a bad idea...

If we each make our own minis file that would require collating the two, which would be a PITA to cut and paste with pixel accuracy...
I did suggest telling each other which slots you would be using... Even if you don't, it is a very simple matter to renumber component files and move minis to a different slot.

Ed how about making an organic Fanatical Command type component to go with CJ's new Magic paradigim one?



Not that I have any idea what it would be or look like
Anyone else have an idea?

As of this moment I have 57 images done. If that helps any.

So, um... how are we doing this Image pack update? Are we going to assign a range of numbers to each of us? As I said before I have 57 images done.

I hope to have some time to do some more images over Thanksgiving.

How many do you want? Do you want a full set, one for every magic component? Including say the spacial manipulation components. It appears that without the spacial manipulation components there are still 45-50 components without magic themed images, 60-65 with them. Grand total, I pretty sure I will not do more that 130 pics max for the magic paradigm.

A picture for every magic component would be nice... Probably excessive to make different Versions of the image for every level of every component though...

There are 24 components per line, so would 6 lines in the minis file suffice? That is 144 images. More than 130 certainly... You could start at 1780, and reserve up to 1920 (if I did the math correctly). That would be 141 images. Ekolis would then start at 1921.
