Title: Looking for a source image...
Post by: Ashley on March 06, 2011, 11:58:43 AM
I'm looking for an image to use in the UI of TileCutter, for the "direction facing" control. I want to indicate more clearly how this control works by having a 1x1 tile image of a house or similar with 4 rotations. I can change the displayed rotation of the image as the user clicks on the various different direction controls.

Ideally the source should be either pak96 or pak128 sized (can be rescaled if need be) and fairly short, e.g. not a high-rise office building. The building also needs to have 4 rotation views and very clear differences between the rotations, e.g. it needs to look like it's facing the correct way.

I will of course add credit for the image to the TileCutter docs/source, and be grateful for the contribution :)

That would work perfectly, I can even set it to change to winter mode when you enable that option :)

Who should I credit for using this image btw, you?
