List, details, names, general descriptions??

And, i'll try it out -- within the next two weeks or so, since once X-Worlds version 05-F has been uploaded here i will take a few free-time to play TA more extensively and fiddle a bit with the remaining Minors of CoSH.

All of this can be done with a BoL task for Race Images.

But, i'd need much more precise information on your wishes & hopes.

too tired for specifics now...i'll get back to you on I-Mod

(B)_ringers (o)_f (L)_ight... task for your requested images as a side project while i still work on my own stuff.

I do have that Mod and i suppose you'll be going for Communist, Allies, type of things -- but, i'd rather get YOUR direct take on these subjects since i would need some kind of reference to match it more closely to some specific needs.

Anybody can go gooogggling around to find thousands of different artworks that could fit the wanted 'context' (Gosh, how many versions of Lenin can someone stare at over the web pages - being just one!)... but it's a matter perception; i could be fascinated by caricatural stuff while you may NOT, etc, etc.

Forget I-Mod; just do it right here!
Judging from the reaction i got from uploading two teasers (X-Worlds & Cosh) posts & polls about three weeks back... i think the Mod-Yards overthere won't ever lift off to my satisfaction. Far from me to be critical of I-Mod, though! I feel the community is MUCH smaller overthere. Thus, less chances to obtain some results.

SD_GC2 official site and resources are all right here.

20MBs limit for file sizes may be annoying - but, i can certainly workaround that. The I-Mod ftp_bandwidth is, in fact, **very** slow (Germany?!). Simply placing a 100+ zip file in their library would mostly require a lot more time to get than if i had 5 times 20s straight here.

So, if you truly want some original pictures - ya gonna have to step forward with detailed 'expression' of your intentions.

i think he whants pictures of the pepole of WWII or the flages of the contres like japan or the americans something like that. i can help but i cant do pepole.

Actually, I think he wants somrthing more futuristic when it comes to logos, such as these examples:

Americans: Earth I front of an eagle clutching the American flag

Fifth Riech: Blood-red swastika over a black-and-white Earth

Communists: Hammer ans Sickle inside of a glaxy graphic

Allies: sorry, can't think of anything here.

some good ideas general

@Zyxpillion:

Fifth Reich: Sly looking nazi type guy with slick greasy hair.

...actually that's all i can think of right now...be creative...i don't have any real preferences.

thanks for helping!

Gotcha!

I'll begin sweeping the valley of images i have on my drives & probably step outside to the realm of international resources from the www.
Dunno exactly when any of these may get ready for submission to your approval, but i'll try to do my very best. Greasy hair? Sly nazi?

DSep, you've got a PM (with a zip full of Race images attached!) @ I-Mod from me.
Lemme know what you think - here!
on Jun 16, 2008
they're not really my kind of race images. i prefer portraits, not just pictures of people in random poses.
Try again if you want.

try something that looks like this...only human


either way, thanks for trying to help!

Oh well... i tried & it was my pleasure.
What i like about this game though is that we can always mod'any'mods to suit our own preferences!
That's the whole tricky reasoning with personal taste - one may never know exactly WHAT is someone's best or worst; "Portraits" included.
