Portrait Requests

Post by Sahji »

http://www.thieves-guild.net/index.php?pid=392

According to that website, it should be easy enough to make a picture into a portrait that we can see in game.

So I'm volunteering to try my hand at a Dasaria II portrait pack.

The idea is, you guys post your requests with a picture that you want to be in game for others to see.

I'll turn it into a portrait, add it to a portrait pack, and then you all download it.

Portraits can be anything from a screenshot, to a picture you found on the web, to a picture you or someone else drew for the character.

If you'd like to help me, check out that link above. Send it to me via gmail ( sahji DOT dasaria AT gmail DOT com). I'll make sure it makes it into the pack, and I'll credit you with the editing.

OKAY GO

Oh yeah, requirements:
  • ○ The finished product MUST be 128 pixels by 128 pixels. So try to get a picture with a head that is at least this size.
    ○ Also, let's keep it fantasy themed. I'm personally going to lean away from "real life" pictures.
    ○ If you can get the name of the artist, do so--we'll add it to a sources.txt so that the artist gets credit.
    ○ I will not add any images that violate Dasaria II's rules. One of those rules is appropriate naming--so no characters can be named Cloud. Likewise, I don't want to add any pictures of key characters from official sources. If any of these images can be recognized as a character from some other series, please tell me, so I can remove it from the pack.

Just a remainder: many of us use the portrait packs listed here. So remember to grab those packs too so you can see other folk's selections. ;)

Can you change portrait after char creation?

The Dasaria 2 Portrait Pack will come with installation and use directions. I'll also probably put them up here for easy access.
Added.

1. No. That appears to be a character from Shaiya.
2. No. That is Cloud from Final Fantasy Advent Children.
3. No. Face too realistic, trying for more fantasy.
4. Lack of artist makes me sketchy about this one.

I should clarify that I don't want to add any images that violate Dasaria II's rules. One of those rules is appropriate naming--so no characters can be named Cloud. Likewise, I don't want to add any pictures of key characters from official sources. As for the last one, I haven't decided if I want to add it or not. From what it looks like, that site just compiles free wallpapers from other sites. Number 4 COULD be a key character from some anime then. :|

Maybe check out http://drakonis.org or Deviantart for original fantasy creations?
