I think this would be the right place to put this, it not then please move to correct topic. So rather then jumping around from topic to topic looking for spells that need images how about we post them all here to make things a little easier for those doing the programming? Just put in spells that need images and discuss stats on other topics. List will be updated accordingly.

1. Mostly new spells are suggested along with units and then it's more comfortable to post them there.
2. We have a place to suggest new albitlies and spells independently: Technologies, spells and albitlies - http://www.androidutils.com/forum/viewf ... 12cea614e5

I think they should stay in the topic of the unit(s) that use those spells

This is meant to be an easier place for you to get the images, stats will remain on their topics.

Dragons might, actually whenever I look at this it looks like a tech icon. Might just change it.

The actual reason I want these in is because it looks weird when your being invaded by a bunch of people with cannon balls attached to their chests.

And here's the icons.
Bull one could technically be universal since its just a tech and it pretty much gets the point across.

Updated charge.

So any comments on these? Besides ones based on why the charge image has a bull head on it that is. I might find a new image for it or just make one depending on time, but for now that beats a cannon ball on the chest or head. Hopefully these don't come out as a icon in the same place though.

I like first dragon's might image (but not for that spell), second image (needs a bit more polishing, some sort of draconic aura around unit, not a dragon itself), devour.

Charge ability must be changed because similar abilities will gain some more units. Image must be universal.

i have replaced the cannonball in dragons might to this image (a derivative of this) tell me if it looks ok.
also on castable spell there are more images than one
1. the button image on the "action list" (32 px)
2. the action image (that appears "over" the targetable units) (32 px, but practically smaller so u see the unit under it)
3. the indicator image (if this is a sticky effect like strengthen) a little indicator image in approx 7x7 px size.

currently i reduced the size of the suggested dragons might "eye", and made the same image for the button and action, the indicator i drew myself using same colors.

if u see totally wrong image somewhere else (like this cannonball was) please tell me.

So your saying you updated dev version?

I only found the cannon ball spell image on the units that didn't have spell images for their abilities.
These were:
Grey dragon
Kobald priestess
Dark dragon
Devourer dragon
Hydra
Blade singer
And I believe that's all.

Well, all we need is 1 or 2 and that's all. Devour is covered which eliminates 3, Since you put dragons might in that takes care of 2. We need 1 more image, as for the elf she just needs the double strike image on hers.

ok, but as i mentioned we need up to 3 image per spell, i wrote above the sizes

Well, devour we could use the same effect cannibalize has.
As for charge, I still need to find something.
I'll update other spell casters who are ready, with those styles of images.

@Stratego (dev) could you supply me with the hoof image icon? I need it for some of these,

These units require ability images:
Elf archer
Elf captain
Longbowmen
Glade sentinel
Glade protector
Glade guardian
Glade vanguard
Glade defender
Glade sentry
Imperial archer
Skeleton wrecking ball
Minotaur axeman
Minotaur spearmen
Minotaur crossbowmen
Minotaur archer
Phantom swordmaster
Phantom crusher (since the phantoms are being expanded, we could possibly give this one a whirling chain ability like the troll crusher)

Anyone I miss?

this is little obsolete as there is more intelligetn image handling now, if you want to have same image for button and actions and projectire than you need only one for these.
and another for indicator (if sticky)

read more under modders lounge.

I'll make all the images in the following days after I'll handle some documents I need to make for work. It will take a short time so I can do that ;)

Hm, ok. But what about that whirlwind attack one? Is it good?

Anyway I had a idea for some of the elves ones but I have to see if I can actually pull it off first.

How's this? @Alexander82 @Stratego (dev)

I made a template for some of the others too.

I noticed that the blades where a bit asymmetrical and wanted to straight em up and I ended up doing this

How large can we make the indicators now?

I didn't have time to search for the new measurements.

Looks nice.
