You can always just hit the "edit" button that's next to all of your messages.

I'm thinking of a finger NOVA!!!!!!!!!!!!NOVA!!! :evil:

It wasn't an insult. I was merely wondering because your maps are beautiful compared to most other people and seem to require a lot of skill and therefore require and individual with a lot of time. Also, your maps often require a view that Bolo Reich doesn't provide very easily so I believe that your creation process it either belt them out and see if they look good or switch from thumbnail view to the mapmaker a bunch of time to get the desired effect of perfection.

No. The Boloreich thumb uses completely different colors. It can't be used as a reference. I have the bolo program (game setup/choose map) open in the tray while I make the map. I can click back and forth almost instantaneously to see the map as it progresses. The map is updated every time I hit 'Save' in Boloreich.

Same exact process that I use. I had Acro edit my BoloReich guide for me, and he added in some cool stuff. This idea (points above) was one of them. My early maps... I had no idea what they looked like until I uploaded 'em. It was kinda fun that way, actually. I got to put in a bunch of hard work and the thumbnail was my reward afterwards. Nowadays, I like to fiddle with my art more.

And Vengeance... note the "j/k" in my post. My reply wasn't an insult, either. And I appreciate the compliment as well. *dances*

Edit: The art actually takes no real skill. I simply put things where they look good. It's just instinctive with people as awesome as I... although it's not like I just slop it all together.

And usually when I post the links for maps I simply just copy and paste it in... quick, easy, simple. You also don't need to post that [url] shit around your address.

You think the art on this one sucks? You shoulda seen it before I fixed it up... it looked like some sort of retro 80s piece of shit.

The Northernmost, Southernmost, Easternmost and Westernmost parts of this map are exactly as far from each other as Fitzhu.

May 31, 2004 00:41

Weird realization... Fitzhu isn't perfectly symmetrical. Open it up in BoloReich and look at the Southeast quad. The little section of the trees in the center of the quad is off by one square too much to the North. It's easily spotted because there are white lines on the road between the grass and the damaged block.

Thank you to sheeps. Did you see my other post in the General Winbolo section, "suggestion for sheeps"?

Jun 02, 2004 01:23

Sheeps, you rock. Thanks to you, lots of people are playing open games on our maps!
