nice dude....the best way to do shadows is pretend there is a light hangin somewhere....or use a box or something in "real" life and make the shadows according to how they are off the box....well changing the shape and stuff lol

keep making sum
can't wait to see your GC

I think making roofs is the hardest part.

here's a er.. test.. version. I'm not intending on resetting it tho, so don't go too crazy.

http://www.blamethepixel.com/pixville.php

the images are pretty much all temporary, so don't worry about the terrible quality . lol

And er... please don't buy all the lots for yourself. lol. You can have more than one, if your building is too big. Also, don't buy till you have an image. It will be allowed, but atm I'd like you to only buy when yer ready.

A PSD template is available for photoshop:

and for those without, here is a PNG version:



Don't include any of the template in your final file - but leave the file dimensions exactly as they are!
The inner diamond is your main bit of land. Th eoutside bit os road / footpath, but don't draw the road or footpath, these are already there...

You can draw on any area that is not black, however, the grey bit is shared so it might get
covered over. After buying a lot (£100), you can click on it in the map, and then click "edit this house" at the bottom to add your own image. It must be in GIF or PNG format. There is no file size limit atm, but I suggest keeping it under 40k (most optimised pngs seem to be under 5k)

wow cool idea zog i fink this is gonna look really good wen its completed!

In that post I didn't mention pixelDam, which is incredibly similar, although I mentioned it earlier in the thread. As I said to er.. someone, it's how I wanted PixVille to be in the first place, so I made it pretty similar to theirs. Bit smaller tho, and worms based...

that's at http://www.pixeldam.net - although it was down loast I checked.

edit: I wouldn't be surprised if you need more than just that one, star worms in fact, you seem to have an unfortunate problem with the height of the building...

we have allready agreed that the light source is from the top let

and, DAMN U ZOGGER U REMOVED THE LARGE QUESTION MARK DAMN U ARRGH

but much improved

it would have helped if I had've used the right variable - can you see it now?

lol - so far everything is a tad out of scale. HarrY's shed is huge, and star worms' mansion is tiny

Could someone lend me £100 and i'll pay them back with 100% interest?

Done and dusted. £100 in the post.

wait until u see my tree

Thanks Psymon but HarrY sent me some before you.

I'll just return the money, thanks anyway.

Aha, I have finished my lodge. It looks like a wooden box ATM/
