King of Camelot, I like your artwork. :)

How are you making the units look so 3-D and with a shadow?
 
Oh joy. Oh rapture. A Mr. T avatat all for me.
Thank ye for putting it there, but one will not abandon the Crusader for just anything (unlike Donald Rumsfeld ;))

LOL!! You are quite well read, Simon! (I'm assuming the Crusader situation is not covered in Australia's mainstream press very much) :) :)

I tried some stuff with your photo. It has been digitally enhanced quite a bit, and is now a 65x65 Avatar of size 3.1KB.

Bah starlifter... Sorry I don't have 100s of dollars worth of fancy programs.
hehe...

Well, I used only HypersnapDX (a screen capture program) and ACDSee (an image viewing program), both of which are free. Ohmigosh! Free??! Yup.... I have hundreds of dollars of fancy software, but only 3 little problems:

1. Most are not installed.
2. The ones that are, are in Win2K (and I am almost always booted in Win95, for speed).

3. I don't know how to use all those fancy programs.

:D


So I'm experimenting with how to use the little free programs, like HypersnapDX. Mikoyan's is the 3rd Avatar I tried, since it looked so fuzzy and I figured there must be a way to fix it. But I'm definitely not a graphics person :eek: ....

PS, I would do something with your Avatar, Spycatcher, but I like it just as it is ;).

Surely all the advance training and equipment that enables you to catch spies could be used for revenue raising. And you had to have had a scource of funds to get that training and Equipment. Industry standards courses like "Seducing superspys, mad scientists, and foreign politicians for Fun and Profit" cost more that a little graphis program. :D

Well, if you can't see already, its just the pikemans body from civIII. Replaced the pike with the sword, changed the body color to white, changed his armor white, and added a cross. Thats where the shadow comes from.:p 3-D? Not that 3-D, but the chest armor and the cloth on his legs I did this way: start with the base color, in this case pure white in the middle, or as close as possible to the middle,(in the chest it is a horizontal line at the middle vertical wise) then just make the base color a shade darker and put it on both sides of the base line. Thats what I do. See, I can't do anything without a base body first...:p

Many thanks mate, but it is part of my job to know such things; they affect what I write on in my accursed thesis. :D
The Crusader situation has got no coverage here; the headlines in the past week have been the gold medals at the Commonwealth Games, and a cat being stuck up a tree in Fremantle. :D
 
A cat stuck in a tree in Fremantle? It's Phillllipe. Someone turned him into a cat and stuck him in a tree. S'why he ain't been postin lately. Was it you Darky? :nono:

I think he's mad because you all forgot his birthday last week. :p

Hey lefty...... :lol:

Do you have a link for me starlifter? :D
 
He's been gone for that long Spy! And I didn't forget his Bday, I never knew it.

Here is the homepage of hypersnapDX:

Here is the homepage of ACDSee:

I use ACDSee 3.1, since they won't let me upgrade to 4.0 for free :(.

It is my hope that he is studying hard. A few weeks ago, he said he had fouled up academically, and well, it would be a good thing if he puts his school before posting :). I don't know if they have summer school in The Netherlands, but in the US at age 14, that is where you would be given how his tests turned out.
