Framed NPC tokens/Token Masks..
I know I've seen some folks who use tokens with frames before.. I'm wondering how that's done.. an extension or part of the token graphics?
If it's an extension I'd like to see how it works so I might try and utilize it in my ruleset.
Ideally I'm looking to create HEX shaped NPC tokens.Full License Operator - You must have a 'Lite' License to play in my games.

Not sure what you mean by "frames".
In general you can do tokens in any shape with Photoshop or GIMP. You define the out edges of the token (leave the outside transparent), then define an inner area (as a mask that marks the images you put in there). Then you can quite easily generate lots and lots of tokens.

I have a photoshop file that has a circle and a set of frames. I select the circle and delete everything outside the circle on the image, then save it with the frame on top. The process takes about 10 seconds with hotkeys.
I never claimed to be sane. Besides, it's more fun this way.

Hrm... I am getting that most of you deal with this manually. I could swear I've seen some sorta screwed up looking tokens (stand alone figures in square frames) that I assumed were being created by some sort of extension by mistake.

I'm going to try and figure out a way to do it with an extension.. this way looks lame.
