Ribannah, what do you think to the 2 'GOTM complient beta' versions I've posted in the GOTM thread?

If you want something else then tell me specifically what it is you want and I'll do my best to provide

Dr. A, if the problem was with positioning, as presented, then the complainant would have responded one way or the other by now, it would seem that you have stepped on the foot of a future yet unannounced GOTM, umm, forced enhancement. Your willingness to comply with pertinent changes, speaks for itself, and you could rest your case on the basis of 'frivolous confrontation'.

Dr A, thumbs up for keeping your head when some around you are losing theirs.

I like your graphics - but I don't use geaphics mods at all because I don't need to.

The visually impaired, on the other hand, do not have a choice - and that's the reason why I approve of your graphics.

The fact that they look cool is a bonus.

I think they look pretty good, and could be helpful to new, forgetful or visually handicapped players.

I don't like the use of outlines though as they seem to lift the specials out of the map, which looks ugly IMHO. But others might think different, so don't let that stop you.

Other do think different in fact, I would like a better contrast outline. Lifting the special out of the map is the point I think, to make it more visible. Its not like I believe coal is found in many round bits lying on top of jungles.

Smirk, I'll produce an outlined version then, I'll take care to make sure the outline dosen't stick out from under the fog too (as it did in my first wheat-outlined prototype.)

But umm, maybe not tonight, as I've got 3 opponents online right now and want to go kick some korean/us/mongol backsides

According to Cracker, then, everyone who is using the standard pcx version shipped by Firaxis is cheating, since you are able to see wheat through the fog of war. I hope for his sake, he's using a modified pcx with just a black letter in the center of the square identifying what the resource is, otherwise he's a dirty dirty cheater like the rest of us.
