@xnoelx: As Shadow said, they are not official, just my side project. So ignore them.

@Shadow: Big meanie! ...and thanks. Smile

@Mr. Mav: thanks.

@Sigmar1: The red teeth maybe should be more orange then. They are in fact part of his big pumpkin head, being a crazy scarecrow. They are supposed to be smiling, they love killing things...

Sorry, I thought the conceptual teams list in the compendium was for the non-official teams. But fair enough.

I think a lot of the Stunty pages are well out of date. Probably don't even need that page. What is the url, I can't seem to find it?

I just clicked on Help, then Stunty Division, and there's a link to the Compendium toward the bottom of the page. But the URL is http://fumbbl.com/help:Stunty+Compendium
Someone's added a link to the forum thread since I said they had no page anyway, but most of the other teams have a proper roster page.

@Whatball, yeah, I was thinking orange teeth would show up a lot better.

Was playing with Gimp last night and figured out the cropnpaste...your pumpkin head on a gnome body looks hilarious! Finally getting the hang of the basics (for some reason the first few nights I was using it couldn't seem to get the pencil tool to snap to a square, yet last night it did...something to do with scaling vs. zooming the image?), in a couple more nights may actually take a stab at creating something.

Speaking of pumpkin heads...what if the Bogey looked liked Pumpkinhead (from the horror movie)? That guys was pretty damn scary looking and sorta fits with the Boggle pumpkin theme. (Maybe Boggles mature into Bogeys? Smile ) Just an idea.

Thanks xnoelx.

Sigmar, the Bogeys will be hideous little beasties, but not pumpkin heads. The idea of the team is an assortment of the various nightmares and evil creatures of folklore.

For the pencil, was it blurring before? You may have been using a 1 pixel brush versus a pencil before. The brush will feather at the edges where the pencil is always a solid pixel. The brush can be good for shading, but I tend to do all my shading with the pencil and varying colours to control it more. Remember to use multiple layers when building your own icons, will save you a lot of time and headache making variants of the icon.

Sorry, I meant Bogeyman not Bogey.

Haven't played around with layering yet...I don't suppose it works at all like ACAD layers? Hell, just last night found how to change the color of the pencil and place colors onto the 'palette'. Seems like you use a lot more color variations than can be stored at one time, but perhaps thats another layer issue (ie. switching layers provides a new palette with its own set of stored colors?)

I'll dig into the layers thing tonight.

You should be working on your icons in RGB mode, not indexed colour. You only convert to indexed when saving as GIF. That will give you unlimited colours to use.

I have never been able to add much more to this thread than 'waaw, great work!'...and I'm not going to break form now. Waaw, great work! If anyone finds themself at a loose end and fancies knocking up a wizard well I'm sure that'd be just dandy.

I'm going to start packing up the icons for the 1.0 release of the client. Please try and get any remaining icons in by the weekend of the 25th if you can to give Christer time to add the stars to the rosters. Thanks.
