Hey LC players :)

I'm gonna keep this short. I see the Kamisama logo has a transparent background. Could the person who made it tell me how they did it? And could they tell me if it's a BMP please.

I ask because our logo on HT (Tao) came out with a white background even though I'm pretty sure I made it transparent.

Thanks :)

    You could probably ask a GM what the transparency rules are. When I played another MMO, it was similar to RM2K/RM2K3 (RPG Maker) sprite transparency for it. Which was a very bright purple or blue.

    Lets see a pic of it!!!!

    I can't wait til my faction is lvl 3 so we can get one. Thinking February we are going 3 and we best get one.

    Saw Knights today and it was a shield and looked very appropriate.

    You can see it in-game, as it is on the Map. Kami has landed in a few locations b:chuckle

    But...if you so choose, here it is.


    And in all seriousness to the OP ---->

    .bmp's do not normally support transparency however you can try Try #FF00FF, or #0000FF (for Windows) but you might need to use a mask to get the transparent look. Keep in mind though that it will also depend upon the program that you are using. You can get free tool managers to help with this type of thing as well. Another option:
    Too make a transparent bitmap you must make sure that the bitmap has been converted to Indexed 256 colour. 24bit Bitmaps will not make a transparent image. Make sure that pixel (0,0) in the top left most part of the picture has the colour you want to be transparent.

    If you have a background colour that you do not want to be transparent put another colour at pixel (0,0), preferably 1 that doesn't appear in the rest of the image. Some image editors allow you to add a colour to the palette if needed.

    In some cases setting colour 0 in the colour index also can help.

    I love it. I can't wait to get home to see more factions icons. Something so little adds so much uniquness to the game and makes lots of people feel that much more happy.

    Way to go PWI on such a small idea doing good.

    I seen that Icon as well with a couple of others on the map like:

    Kamisama: Aliens trying to take over PWI! b:shocked

    Essence: I think its a wiz.. because it looks like a person wearing a wiz hat.

    FinalOath: Its a green skull.

    SamuraSul: With a Chinese symbol.

    SHINRA: with some red figure.... im not sure what it is.. b:surrender

    These are the icons I seen on the map so far but I seen many more on other guilds. I just wonder how long it would take until every guild has one. b:pleased

    Essense I guess is the little wiz and his name is ViVi. One little bugga who pack a wallop with his fire attack.

    He was also able to make the Knight in FF9 able to use magic attacks on his weapons. I wonder if Essense has found a way to make all their BM's to be able to cast Magic attacks while beating on you with their swords.

    Open Paint program that can save in .BMP format.

    Make pic to specified size.

    Give to leader of faction and have them send into PWI through ticketing system.

    Thats' sorta a general idea of how its done. Either Forum search topics or perhaps someone will link you here.


    EDIT AS PER ROSE: Damn it and my slow typing.

    1)You must be the faction leader.
    2)You must send in a screenshot of your faction's roster showing that the faction is a level 3 faction in JPG format.
    3)The icon image must be sent in as a BMP format and must be 16*16 pixels with a RGB color mode.
    4)If you would like it as a transparent background please make sure you add an Alpha Channel (Transparency Control Channel).
    * add an Alpha-channel to your image (using Layer > Transparency > Add Alpha Channel)
    * select the Eraser-tool Eraser Tool and erase what you'd like to get rid of in the mask layer, or use the magic wand.
    * save the BMP as 32-bit vs 24-bit to preserve the Alpha Channel in the output file.

    Note these instructions are for GIMP.
