yep yep yep... i'm doing all that now... I'm gonna redo the whole image from scratch with b/w in mind, because the one i posted was originaly colour.

Might not be for a while because my A Level exams have just started - they finish in a bout a month... 

I don't like the way that the italian job was re-raleased and the suposed re-release of the great escape from america and the old war movies ie battle of britain i think it was where they make the american the hero when they were nothing to do with it

Exactly - this backs up my argument of globalisation == Americanisation.
Why is the only city anyone cares about new-bloody-york ? Example -
A film is made ("day after tomorrow") where the polar caps melt or something and the world freezes over - where is the most dramaticaly hurt place? where is the film based? New York.

Thank you Hollywood :

I'm lazy and i haven't read ALL of the thread... why is LGM in the father land?

I only had this bg and one other - but now i am going to redraw them to fit a gui on... they didn't resize well... I am going to spend a lot more time on them too.... Can anyone please tell me if there is a quick, simple way to make the scenes speia like there is to make them b/w?

I can't remember his name.. the fat guy with the badass gun...
...vulcan raven?
Will he be in it?

The room bg = cool A little explaination about this tree pole would probably make it better - i don't get what it is.
The second bg also has that weird green moon thingy??
I like the first bg, but i don't understand the second - where would you walk/interact? Where does the bottom of the red brick building go?

Maybe i'm just missing something at the mo...
But i like the first one and the character is very nice.

Damn my ignorance! I can't understand half this thread - so I wont have much chance at the game

What you really need is to move all of the character rather than just his arms and legs - his shoulders - his hair - give him a 1 pixel bobbing up and down as he walks - and move his arms on the side view...
...It's a nice char. 

The image was originaly colour - but it wasn't too good so i converted it into a grayscale thingy - is there anyway i can change it to look sepia/bronze/yellow without repainting it colour by colour? Keep in mind i don't have photoshop - i use gimp.
It IS an outhouse - but i can't get it to look correct - plus when i changed it from colour to this I lost a lot of shading and now the building looks real flat.
P.S Daz... who cares man, you can do a western and it'll probably beat mine - i tend to drift from project to project - but i'm gonna try and finish this one - i don't care and neither should anyone else 8)

I was planning on spending a lot of time on getting good dialog. Do you think it would be a bad idea to have the game b/w? I wanted to emphasise the western movies thing. The gui that'll be at the bottom will be colour - minimi's woodgui template! Any ideas on how to improve the bg?
P.S thanks for the forum codes. 

I think this whole thread/argument is not Americans being ignorant of language, but the world being ignorant of America.Not everyone born in the U.S of A is an idiot you know.
America hauls with it some big ass industries and therefore ideals such as globalisation essentialy now mean Americanisation... this is a shame but I feel recently there's been an increase in yank bashing and I don't get it.

P.S I'm not American (just so you know)

I have a cowboy character i made - he's supposed to be young and naive - i pretty much want him the same character that guybrush is right at the start of mi1 - YES HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE BLACK/W
Please c&c me - ps i know about the white pixels on his hat - i couldn't be bothered to change them before i posted.

I also have a background

If someone tells me the code for resizing the image I'll edit the large b/g - there is a code right?

Anyway - tear me to pieces....

Dang this is a helpfull, friendly community. Thank you.
(Off Topic: I plan to resize my bg's for your gui - i have o )

look on igor's post:
The first image - both the guy's feet do not touch the floor, if you are walking you always have at least one foot on the floor - if your character's feet both come off the ground it looks like he is skipping

And perhaps for example if one had lost one's windows disk.... or couldn't find it ... you know *Hypothetically*... any other prtions 

Very 'Broken sword.' I like it. these images fit together real well. Appart from the lack of detail - i think that car is ace

I have no idea where the hell this thread should go - if it doesn't fit here - sorry.
BUT.. where can I download mspaint!!? I had a little hard drive accident!! : I really need it back! Any ideas? Preferably a free download (of course)
Thanking you in advance...

thanks - that works now - Of course full cred will be given
Now all i gotta do ius resize my b.g's  ... damn - one more thing... how do i change the credits to tell people info on the game ( don't worry - you'll still be on there!)
I'm guessing it'll be some kinda script - i'm pretty new at scripting... very new actually!

P.S I know this shoulda been on tech forum - but the first half of conversation was on this thread anyway - so sorry!!

errmmm... he has no face dude. 8)
I like the style though - what did you use to make it?

I think the pic's amazing and you should thank your brilliant artist very much - especially since he used paint!!
Only a few things - there's some white pixels at the base of the challace cup thingy and the leg that goes behind the other is missing a foot - i think that's all for now
