How's that for the component side? Still working on Pic

I like the symbol one best.
It would be funny if you changed the symbols into an ancient-cave drawing of a warppoint creation.
Say a starburst, some wavy lines and some alien icons.

Training is OK, but I'd expect it would be good as a boarding defense component. One-per-ship, and reduced to 2KT, adding 5 defense points to the basic 4 per crew quarters.
If you put it in the same familily as MC's then you can't use an MC and the shooting range together...
Or maybe if it was an upgraded crew quarters: it has the crew quarters ability, takes up 7KT, and provides the extra boarding defense.


PS: can I see a mini for Goo5?

Here's another request:

A Star Colony component picture. It's like a Ring or Sphere world, but much smaller (both component and world), and requires only one component to emplace.

I'll try the other symbols, only problem is I think I have to do layers of symbols rather than one pic with all symbols do to "shrinkage" - so I'm not sure about how it will look.

PD:

So you're looking for a mini-ring sphere world pic for the planets and components for building it? Something like a 10th of the size?

I think the goo mini needs to be use the non-transparent goo, and have a much brighter frame.

I'm confused as to what you're using to make the graphics now, and I'm not sure what you mean by "shrinkage".

"PD:

Pretty much. It's got multiple tech levels though- from small planet sized on up to large (no need for each one to have a seperate pic except maybe the stellar result). Only one component needed to start it. Not sure what the actual stellar pic would look like..

Using a mix of DoGA/PSP7/Paint and sometimes Photoshop.

The symbols were a inverse reflection and seem to be scaled down/up regardless of the size of the original bitmap to a set size, so the burst symbol (the one you saw) was 250x250.bmp. I tried to make a bunch of cool symbols at 600X600 and it shrank it down to even smaller than the 250x250 image. So I went the other direction and made a 128x128 one hoping it would increase the size. No luck, it was still the same upon import as a reflection. I'm rethinking my logic on this one and I might just make the symbols into a texture map instead with a blank background.

I'll do the goo tomorrow, with today being V-Day I won't have anytime tonight - I hope


PD:

I asked my friend that does space scenes to give it a shot.
