Why not post them all in one image?

HoneyBadger · #34 September 12th, 2008, 03:19 AM

Unfortunately, I can't. I can't post them in a zip file because I don't have a zip compiler on this computer (and can't download one), and I can't create a website to host them, because again, it's a work computer. I'd love to post them together, but I just don't have a way to do it.

I might be done for tonight-I did all these today, and I'm running out of steam. If anyone wants, I can try to email a copy of the Opaani Fortressbeast in it's unaltered form. Just let me know.

Eventually, I hope to mug somebody with a zip drive, and get the nation ready to play.

Well like I said, why not post them all in one image? You can post images, so why not combine them into one big bmp or jpg (or better yet, a png, placed on freeimagehosting)

The forum won't let me-the image would be too big to post. I can't even post the Opaani as a bitmap, because it's too large.

The Opaani itself is nearly twice the allowed file size. I guess I could try posting them all as .jpg's, but the images already tend to run together.

I'm confused as to how you think I post previews with large numbers of units. Bmps are absolutely massive and you shouldn't really be uploading them anywhere. png offers the same quality at a fraction of the size. I realise paint probably can't do pngs though.

However since you're already posting things up converted into jpg, you shouldn't have a problem in terms of filesize. If you still can't get a combined jpg to work on this forum, upload the file on freeimagehosting or something.

Right now, I'm just getting units up so that people can see them and possibly make use of them. It looks like I can use .pngs though, thanks! (I've had no experience using .pngs before, and didn't realize they're smaller files that can handle better resolution.). I'll see about posting a group picture tonight or tomorrow. Grrr...I wish I'd have known about this before I posted my dragons, since I've lost the original bitmaps when my computer was last reimaged. In the meantime, here's the unadulterated Opaani:

There, I posted atleast a thumbnail group image. Tomorrow I'll try to knock out a few more graphics, and figure out whether or not I'm going to keep all the commanders-Aksum has a huge number of units, and while they're very fun to draw (colorful! and mostly human sized), I don't want *too* much bloat.
