GM Seiren 3240 Posted April 18, 2013 Hello artists of TalonRO! We are currently looking for two new sprites to replace Valor Badges and Bravery Badges. Considering we switched to a Coins system for Reward Points and Rental Coins as well, we figured we'd turn these items into Valor Coins and Bravery Coins as well. Considering we don't really have any appropriate sprites for these, we figured we'd let the artists of TalonRO chip in! The official Badge sprites are both the same, but we'd prefer to have two versions of the sprite, one for each. The only difference between the two really has to be the colour. What we need: - A Collection image (the big image you see when rightclicking the item) 75 width, 100 height - The sprite you see what dragging the item or dropping it on the floor (must include ACT file as well, should be around 24x24) - The image you see in the inventory 24 width, 24 height, must have #FF00FF background, must be saved in 8bit/256color BMP) It's probably easiest to base the files on some official item. You may base your creation on the existing Badges and turn them into Coins somehow. You can use other existing Coins to base your creation on as well. Just make sure you give your own twist to it and don't completely copy someone else's idea. The deadline for this is quite soon, namely April 28th. The winning artist receives 10 Talon Coins. Questions or comments regarding Battlegrounds and the implementation will be removed. Please only contribute to the event. Thank you. We'd love to see your creations!

Razer 56 Posted April 18, 2013 I'd love to see some Emerald or Sapphire Coins that appear Semi transparent Good luck to the participating artists , I think its a great thing to see ones art become a permanent feature in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bifrost 430 Posted April 18, 2013 Seems a bit strange to be spriting contest, considering the subject is really simple and easy to make (I kinda can get these things done in 30 mins). But oh well, I'll participate this time. Because I love spriting. I'm curious though, why are you changing the items? XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GM Seiren 3240 Posted April 18, 2013 It's mainly because we did the same thing with the other Reward System elements. We prefer to have them all as coins. But yeah, if we can turn something into an event, then we like to do so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angelique-Chan 5 Posted April 19, 2013 I haven't had any experience with making .act or .spr before, but I gave it a go. If there's something wrong with the .act or .spr I apologise, I don't actually know what else to do with it. I've provided both .bmp images anyways, so if you need to re-convert you are able to do so.

It's possibly best to change the original image a bit more, we're happy to have people use other work as a base, but these ones still look like the original pokemon badges :3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
