The focus is shared by the emptiness and the small scene, as opposed to only being dominated by the blockheads at the table Emptiness says alot there, arguably more so than the middle |

Crop it down to about 75-80%, centered on the characters, and it retains the effect without making the centerpiece look that insignificant. |

Suggestions? --- End quote --- Maybe a gentle gradient that is lighter around the players and darker at the edges?? I came to look at the forums, having not played Blockland since the day befor Xmas, having only just heard about the new shading/shadows, but I came into general discussion, and saw this topic. Anyway, I hosted a decent server in december(a winter/xmas Trench CTF/TDM) and I got about 15 people to join a couple of times, and it was at the top of the server list for a while, but Im not that good a builder, and my internet wasnt too fast, so I couldnt expand on it and as a result it sortof died down. I totally agree with the whole thing about people hosting terribly made servers, getting all the top places on the server list, and I wish there was a group of people who would get together and make a few high quality servers, and I would be willing to help. I have noticed though, having been on BL since v10/v11 I have noticed the number of badly made servers rise along with the number of people buying blockland. In a way, I think you should still have to forward your ports, because it sort of gets rid of all the 9 year olds that host. I have no problem with them playing, and buying the game, but I think it was because of that that I drifted away from BL. |

I've seen your replies, and I was originally going to crop it down a bit so that it was more of the focus in the steam picture, but Nexus's reply made me think. It seems better to keep a lot of the background area in view. Also, the thing about this is: 1. It's the younger member, with the hat and quiver, slightly leaning forward, the one asking and trying to learn. 2. The older one, with the pegs and hooks and helmet, leaning back slightly, in no hurry at all. (And how big is the steam group image frame? 128x128?) EDIT: --- Quote from: RFW2 on February 26, 2012, 08:57:41 AM ---Maybe a gentle gradient that is lighter around the players and darker at the edges?? --- End quote --- I was thinking of a yellowish-orange to red gradient sky, with the orange at the bottom and ascending to red with some light, high clouds that are like lines. I wanna see if this is in a skybox already. |
