Great job.

I hate to nitpick your fine work but you have some mistakes with the civ-specific abilities. You have the Romans as I M although they are C M, and America is not E E but E I, Persians are S I, not M C, Chinese are M I, not I S.

I tried to fix it myself but I couldn't figure out how to edit PCX files.

Great idea Che but if you click on the picture of the wonder it takes you to its Civilopedia entry. Isn't that enough?

Great Job Che Palle


OK, Pembleton, you were right. Just don't make a habbit of it
Here's the, once again, updated wonderBackground file. Hopefully that fixed the last bugs w/ that one.

Other than that, I haven't had much luck finding alternative images, but I do think that the trading company could be better, and the 'circumnavigation' could use an improvement too.

1) Play the game or read the civilopedia.

2) Read the readme. The manual has many errors:

"* Civilization Strengths Changes:

Rome: Militaristic and Commercial - Starting Advances: Warrior Code and Alphabet
China: Militaristic and Industrious - Starting Advances: Warrior Code and Masonry
Persia: Scientific and Industrious - Starting Advances: Masonry and Bronze Working"

So many good images Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Everyone has so many great images for the same wonders. If only there were a way to have the images change each time for the same wonder. Even better if they had the artist's name and title for the images (if applicable).

Great Trading Company Image Idea Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

I read someone (other than myself) did not like the default image. Attached to this email is one I think more appropriate.

I was going to remake them all but since Alessandro beat me to it (free time is sparse) and did a fine job (with some minor info errors) I figured why reinvent the wheel, look and feel wise. So I offer this image to the Alessandro to standardize with his others.

I think that is a fantastic idea!!!!

12x for Darkangel.

Could you provide me with a LARGER version of that picture?

By larger I don't mean enlarge the existing image, otherwise it would lose quality...


...you'd never believe what graphics slang for "enlarge the existing image" I used and almost hit send before realizing the horrible choice of words

I'm here

As for the update I have 2 problems:

1. I don't really know which images to change. I agree that the Trading company picture sucks, and will be expecting a good "World Trade Center" picture from Darkangel or whoever else can get me one. When I looked at them the only one I *HAD A PROBLEM WITH* was the Sistine Chapel, which is why I changed that. I need folks not just to say "change the pictures, We don't like them" but to find better (good quality, big enough pictures) and say "hey I think this would be a better photo for this wonder" and provide a link, or attach it here, etc.

2. I'm not 100% sure how to handle this... do I just provide individual image updates, and everyone chooses which to and not to download? I'm sure some folks will find that they don't want to change X wonder's pic with my choice... how do I allow them to exercise their right to keep that particular image?

So, get those images coming and I promise I will WonderWithInfo-ize them and post them here...

That’s a real nice image Cruzz! It is kind of in motif with the other art for the game. While in that vein…..

I was thinking that maybe we should discuss the merits of a “look and feel” for each epoch as part of a project plan. Hell I want to make vids for each wonder as well! But that, that my friends is another issue all together.

Maybe, we could find real photos of each of them, or something that is really really close. To make them look more interesting!!!

I agree. If the wonder is real, I think we should use real images. The question is do we make them artsy or shoot for dramatic real life.

BTW: keep in mind that the images you folks want to summit need to have square dimensions. Rectangles are not useable unless the image has a square area in it that we can use properly.
