I'm sorry, but what is that thing on that pic? It looks like a clay brick to me, but I guess Europeans don't export clay bricks and clay bricks aren't no luxury goods. So, what is that?Vuldacon said:

Generally, goods that are shipped, are shipped in Crates, Boxes or containers. Since "Goods" are a General term, it seemed appropriate to use a "general" Box to "Represent" Imported Goods

That would involve me learning how river gfx work ... I can look at it, but don't hold your breath.Weasel Op said:TLC, since you're doing gfx jobs, would you be interested in making those power lines you suggested as river replacements?

Oh, I see, it's a box. Sorry, no offense, but it don't look like a box to me. I still see a clay brick or something like that. May be, it's just me.Vuldacon said:Generally, goods that are shipped, are shipped in Crates, Boxes or containers.

Could be the Limited Colors in the resource palette ...still, it would have to be a Hugh Brick at that size though...perhaps a Monolith for a Brick Company 
but too large for a brick. looks like a Box in the Game anyway.

Colour and shape are off for a brick. Looks most of all like a cardboard box.

As for the palette, I did try to have the colors for Cardboard work out there. I realize that is it very Generic but thought it could be used to represent Imports...if not something else that requires a Box

It doesn't seem too complicated to me. There are just 2 files, about 16 tiles each, and the pattern would be identical to the rivers. I tried it myself, but I'm awful at drawing pixel-by-pixel.

Gee ! I had forgotten about that thread !
Sorry for that. And thanks for your time. However I kind of agree with Arne. It looks a bit like a brick or like a soft box, not like the wooden crate I had in mind...

You're a demanding one, er?
Would you like it better as a "ribbed" box?

@Weasel: You may want to redownload it, since I forgot the shadow first time round.

Hey, that one is nice- if you make a longer version as well and potentialy make some in different colour we'd have some cool freight containersThe Last Conformist said:You're a demanding one, er?

I say the color is fine, although if it was longer it could be crates of rifles/missles... I suggest taking the "tape" off the top from when it was cardboard, presumably its nailed shut now...maybe "thicken" the borders on top, but I think this has much potential uses in all the forms Ive seen...great work TLC....

I think I'd rather try doing a freight container from scratch. I'll look at it tomorrow.

You didn't answer whether the ribbed box was good enough.

Well, it can do the job. So if you are busy, I will take it.
If you want/can/don't mind doing the freight container, it might be better... and its meaning obvious that's the most important thing).
