Title: Crazy Homeless Wierdo
Post by: Jockstrap on Sun 11/01/2004 14:11:07
I drew this based around an idea I had for a RON game. The one on the left is what he thinks he looks like, the one on the right is what he really looks like.

It calls you stupid because you´re posting a *bmp. A gif would do the work, as your design has less than 256 colours.

Hmm... The one to the right looks like a beaten up gentleman. If he's supposed to be a hobo, i would suggest you make his teethe a bit more "rotten".

and oh yeah, if .GIF is bad, try .PNG or .JPG.

How to make non-crappy gifs:
1.Open your bmp in mspaint, click on edit=>select all, copy
2.Save your bmp as gif using mspaint
3.Open the gif with mspaint and paste
4.From the file menu chose save.

That works fur me.

Maybe you should remove "don't call me stupid!" now?  ;)

Sounds like a great idea to have him think he's something else than he is. There are probably tons of ways to have fun with this.

I think the only thing that really actually bothers me are the bright outlines on the leftmost version. I think darker lines might fit in better. However, if it's part of the RON style it's of course fine. I just never got used it.  :-\
