Currently, we can do smilies. icon_e_biggrin.gificon_e_smile.gificon_e_wink.gificon_e_sad.gificon_e_surprised.gificon_cry.gif

Add all the game icons to the forum. Each character has an icon for their tiles, and these icons would often be useful. Strike, Protect, Attack, and Web icons would also be handy.

Sets of colored tiles would similarly be useful.

    Looking at adding the character icons, but at smiley size they can be pretty unrecognizable. Not sure that'd be worth it.

    Any others requested? Not hard to modify them for use, but at 17x17 which is max before they start doing weird things to text line sizes makes anything that's not instantly recognizable at small size just kind of a smudge.

    Um... what about the little colored ribbons that go on top of the character portraits on the right side?

    In the game, on the 8*8 board, each of the tiles gets an icon showing ownership. For example, Ares axe, Thor hammer, Fury falcon, Daken tattoo.

    Same problem with the character icons themselves. Just really muddy. Less recognizable than strike.pngenemystrike.png if they're on a tile and they fade into the background if they're transparent.

    You left out attack tiles and a count down tile. Was it cause they were too small?
    For CD tiles, you could do #'s 1 - 5, and just put them on which ever color they show up best on. Like white #s on black tiles, or black #s on yellow tiles.

    Can we get a tile with the little trap "arms" on it? Web Tile? How about the different Node emblems (from PvE/Prologue)? The Ranking and Event Point emblems? I'm sure the character page people wouldn't mind having the little circular start emblem from the abilities (looks kinda like a Dragonball, in case you're not sure what I am talking about). Lastly, the Recruit Token emblems.

    Thanks for the simple, but delightful addition. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    We have the Prototype Shield available. Would it be possible to also include the Advanced and Cosmic shields? And the gray shield that indicates an active shield.

    A neutral "nothing" tile the same size as the color tiles would be useful.

    Like this? purpletile.pngnone.pngredtile.png

    That's : null : Added it to the front of the smiley listing for ease of clicking.

    More stuff, these are clickable from the "View more smilies" menu

    Downside is that since they're 34x34, they mess with text on the line you use them with. Upside is that they're not smudges!

    Iron Patriot's icon was (is?) part of the little loading icon scroll and he's been well known to be coming. Still no time very soon though. Ms. Marvel I kinda spoiled in the art thread, figured the icon can't hurt. icon_e_smile.gif

    Very nice.
    They may be 34x34, but they have a lot of space around them. They could be cropped to a smaller size, but that might be a tedious exercise.
