OK i got jobs for you creative monsters out there!

Who wants to do a Large Fields version of a STAR PLAYER or even a complete Team ?

just post the Star Player Icon or Team you want to do and your name. I will add you to the Projects Credit file and you will receive eternal glory!

* use the ".png" format, try to take advantage of "translucent pixels"
* do not use animations, but a high detailed static icon.
* do one red and one blue version of the uniform

Come on Folks, this is going to be fantastic! Very Happy

PNG allows anti-aliased images to work with transparency.

So someone could shrink something in photoshop, and save as a PNG and it will look good overlayed on ANY background.

If you use GIF, then the edges will have white or black 'noise' around the sides. So for consistancy, if we use PNG for the big guys incase SOMEONE ends up making anti-aliased images.

It's not that I want to shove all work onto one or two people, but I do enjoy Pat's icons, and I love uniformity. Asking dozens of people to make icons would make it look even more like a hodgepodge than it already is.

Barnlato just agreed he's the guy who did Zug. Luthor is coming up. I will ask him to do all of the Stars, if you agree?

Heck, just posted to the .gif/.png topic... but as said my time is limited. I suppose that if we had a list of icons from where we could reserve a task for ourselves it might be easier to tell who is doing what. What comes to uniformity, with this kind of projects it is not a 100% neccessity. We can try to adapt our icons to fit the chosen style, which seems to be that of Pat's and Nick's for obvious reasons B-) Every credit to all the artists that have contributed so far in this great project of Ski's, every effort is equally importantant, but torsoboy has a point too. Maybe somebody (Pat? Nick?) could act as a AD and make the final decision if some icon fits in or not? We could also give the AD a permission to edit our precious children if he so decides. This part might be hadr to accept for some, myself included B-)

I can make just a icon at the time. I really cannot promise to make all the Stars in any given time. These things here aren't at the top of my priority list unfortunately. Count is on its way though, and few others hopefully.

Rome wasn't built in a day either;

I'd suggest to make Pat the Art Director / Lead Designer.
If Pat just throws out basic concepts of icons, maybe someone wants to give them more of a finish by adding detail or something?

To look up the status of the project, and a preview of all Icons and Portraits, just look up the "Large Fields INI Files" topic. The opening posting is updated by me as new artwork becomes availiable.

Thanks BigMac
It's pleasure to work for this project, but i'm not a organizer just an "Artist"...
Big Mac you are the organizer with ski, & the idea of basic concept of icons it's very Good, but artists like NKelsch, Barnlato, GreatCthulhu can propose & make some teams & Basic concept Icons...
Today i work on Chaos Team...The firsts Previews Very Soon
Pat
