Okay, Nutty.
Here's a quick mock-up of some basic designs i plan to produce for the entire set(s) of Ideological Tenets.
The image below contains from L-to-R the following three Level_1's;
-- Autocracy's Fortified Borders
-- Freedom's Avant Garde
-- Order's Socialist Realism
The essential reasoning is that anything must be as simple as possible while giving some general hints about the miscellaneous effects. Since the ToolTips are very explicit for names & description - it wouldn't make any sense to exaggerate the principles or to even overlay the TXT above these pictures.
To differentiate AFO Ideologies, the "Backdrops" for each are given Cloudy-Skies in various forms & colors; Yellow'ish for Autocracy, Blue'ish_Freedom, Red'ish_Order.
The default boxes (indirect Buttons) are 124x88 as defined by the XML file. I might have to obscure the edges slightly but without a Coded LUA/XML Test mod -- there's no way to figure out if the InGame framework will display my images correctly.
Soooooo.. think about it all and let me know if you're interested.
