ARGSHSDFHSSLDKFJ!! Wow, what a unit!
I love pirate ships/ridiculous ghost ships. And this unit takes the cake. The ghostly pirate cake.

It is possible, since the textures were set up to be changed easily, however it would take quite a while simply because this thing takes a fairly long time to render (averaged about twenty minutes for each direction, for each animation). If I do remake it, it won't be anytime soon (see my to-do list and you'll understand, in fact, I'm going to go and make the list more obvious...)

Hell yeah!!! This came out better than I thought. Definately one of the best units to come out this year.

Man, I'm glad you decided to invest so much time in the detail and animations of this unit! It looks like one of the most epic units ever. This will definitely get my vote for the unit of the month (sadly, I fear I may not be able to vote since I will be in the air force). However, I can probably ask Plotinus to enter my vote for me with my permission; that should be a reasonable solution.

Thanks Hikaro, looks like sizing and alignment is alright, little bit bright though, I'll keep that in mind for future units.

I downloaded it, but the image wouldnt save on units_32 on the image editor. Along with the text.

Are you using Windows Vista? If you are you might have to run the image-editor as administrator in order to save the new version of the unit32 file over the old version.

Orthanc, im running MGI PhotoSuite SE. The problems were ( of course ) The Dutchman32pcx photo, and the Text steps. Im also wondering how to put the Pedia Icons, ( not the text ) and unit animations in. And i am running vista.

Here Civman33, this tutorial should help you out:

As for running a program as administator, right click the program icon and the option 'Run as administrator' will appear.
And thank you Goldflash for maintaining Ooji Booji's message.

( Sorry for the info again, its just a bit complicated. 
) I try to log in as an administrader, ( With my civf username and password. ) but it doesn't accept. Am I doing something wrong?

You're not logging into these forums as an administrator, you are running the program (the one that can edit images, whichever program that is) on your computer as administrator.
I'm assuming of course that you are the administrator for your computer (if it is your computer, or you are the primary user of the computer, you probably are the administrator or have access to the abilities of the administrator).
I'll make this simple (well as simple as I can), right-click the icon of the image-editing program, select the 'Run as administrator' option. A window will probably pop-up saying something like 'An unidentified program wants access to your computer', click 'Allow', the program should open and you shuld be able to save any files you edit with the program like normal. But if you close the program you'll have to repeat this process.
