    Pirates Skin for Savage Worlds

    I've been working on this skin off and on for a bit. I'm trying to decide if I like the semi transparent chat box. Any thoughts?

    I think the chat box should help the text be readable. By the end of the night I hate any detail in the box that makes it harder to read, especially on the last 3 lines where most people concentrate.

    The semi transparency looks sort of pretty but I'd lose it.

    just my .02

    Nice map though.

    Sigurd's right here I'd say. Readability first. Especially when you are going for long stretches. Nobody wants a GM with a headache. (TPK! TPK!)

    PLEASE someone make a Solomon Kane skin!

    I like the semi-transparent chat box, especially with a nice embedded map behind it.

    I definately agree with the priority should be readability. It seems to be pretty readable, I looked at it with text on it. Everything is light under it so it it is pretty easy to read. You might not like my chatbox highlight though... It's busy but still pretty light and only when the dice are being dragged. I wanted to do something other than just a standard highlight.

    Chatbox with text:

    Heh...

    I actually used the "Hit Location Table" printed on a manequin as highlight on one of my rulesets. So i can't say *I* mind.

    That's really good ... I have three games I really want to run:

    1)Middle-earth using the RMC ruleset
    2)Solomon Kane - SW
    3)Mars/Barsoom - either 3.5Modern or the new SW version

    Thanks to Devin I have a nice set of graphics for #3.

    Religion is an insult to human dignity.
    With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things.
    But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion...
