	Firaxis-- We need your help promoting Civ3 Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

This may be ignored, but what the heck. Civ3 is a good game with 1million copies sold, but how many more would be sold if we had the tools to easily share our civ3 experiences.

For now forget all neat play improvements and new units, the forum and excitement over the game would be higher if we had a few simple tools to learn from other's posted games.

If Firaxis were to build the tools, would we use them?

Opp, this needs more explanation. Problem is we don't have the tools to create a correct size for the forums gif image of the key game informational screens: minimap, histograph and demographics.

Fixaxis should create a command that would automatically create the gif/tiff whatever is good for the forum image for posting.

Minimap-- like a camera, we should be able to click on a button and stamp: year and turn number.

Histograph-- we should be able to select any of the three graphs: score, power, culture.

Foreign advisor-- we should be able to show military unit type and counts of my civ and civ military revealed by spy. {Doesn't have to be with graphics, type and count is much better than what we have now.

Demographic image--also with option to stamp with year & turn.

Finally, and I forgot to put in poll most important. Give us a tool to create a standalone history review movie like we see at the end of the game.
