I've started to draw a few graphics for aagenielsen.dk

[Masterluke]

Yes! That would be great, thank you!

I also have a concept for dressing up the game board itself. But I don't know if that's possible, technically speaking. For instance, if I should draw a board of 7 x 7, thus 7 x 40 pixels horizontal and 7 x 40 pixels vertical, for the Ard Ri or Brandubh set up, and then save it as a png-file with indexed colors, could it be inserted in the game?
Just wondering... I hope it doesn't cause you any troubles, i.e. much extra work, since a couple of members start designing pieces (and even make up their own rule sets ). But it proves that some of us, and speaking for myself in particular, are VERY committed to the tafl game...

That's a creative idea. But this one is difficult, because the software draws the board on the fly and doesn't use a board image.

These contributions of extra creativity are very exciting!! Fortunately the software structure was already such, that it was simple to insert extra game pieces.

No problem concerning the board...
Otherwise: Great!

How about some new graphics for the sea battle game? The white army sails to the right, the attackers to the left. 'Cargo ship' or 'Treasure ship' holds golden cup.

Inserted in Sea 15x15.

Inserted in Sea 15x15.

Woah!!! a bit too busy,... Please replace them with the new ones in attachment, much easier on the eyes. (black and white outlines deleted...)
Thanks

Inserted.

Branan, do you have these game pieces as single images?

It was just a rapid test. I've done something with more work and more fun:

Here are the pieces:

Fun guys!

There is the thing with transparency. "themightyglider" is an expert on this.
(I'm aware that the board color in the diagram doesn't go with the pieces. If I place them on this board, I'll just let the board be white).
