Thanks for a great mod

Awhile back I did something like this for the A New Dawn guys. I cant code or do any of that sort of thing but I like showing my appreciation in small ways. So I made a desktop icon for RAND so you can have a unique icon to assign to a shortcut.

Now I have a few icons for C2C and Civ IV in general. I have some that fit on a Dock-Bar like shown in the picture and one that I am using instead that is in my games folder that is shown open in my stack docklet (too many games to have shortcuts on the desktop and I don't think playing favorites is fair lol). I am including the zip of all the icons and some samples of what the icons look like in the zip. Mainly they are PNG files but I can change any to icons (.ICO) on the fly for anyone who cant or doesn't know how to.

Enjoy!

C2C_2 is nice (changing the C2C to black rather than white), but would be way better in color, i just dont (personally) like b/w pic or icons of any nature, even TV.

If we could actually see his face, then yes.

Personally, I think it should be an animated icon of the head morphing from caveman to spaceman.

I like this, but if we need a static image, how about a caveman facing a spaceman.
Mirror image sort of thing.

I do agree with the OP, I love this mod.

I don't think that's possible. I thought rather a face half caveman, half robot. But Acularius' idea sounds even better actually.

While trying to find images for that I found this. Its unusable but interesting in that it exists.

Generally what I had in mind actually.
Only in icon form.

That would be great, but words in an icon will not be readable, plus no color??

I think we can do better than that one. I was just saying it was funny that there was an image similar to the idea proposed.
