Ludo38 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I created them. Some of them do not have higher quality versions and some do.Ok. Mythos_Ruler, great great work!!I wonder : the first emblem of the macedonians have an almost fluo purple color. Is it accurate ? It's surprising to me.And the Mauryan emblem, I think it lacks some lisbility. We don't really guess the 3 lions of the pillar... So, maybe a single lion, or a different graphic style for the trio would help having it clearer. Just a thought.Did you made all that on Gimp ?For the information, I did the box-art on Inkscape, with a little work on Gimp for the background that links game screenshot and greek pottery photo.

Mythos_Ruler Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Actually, the Mauryan one is the only one I didn't create, my mistake. And I think it's mostly just a placeholder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo38 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 Waiting for approval of Gameolith, I wanted to try a simple gathering of the factions emblems, just for fun :The Mauryan one is missing, considering what said Mythos_Ruler just above. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Falcão Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 The face with the tongue out of the mouth reminds me of a documentary i watched just yesterday Discovery Channel about Medusa. The pic represents a gorgon, that means "horrible creature", in ancient greek. A cool fact is: pics with the same characteristics (pointy teeth, tongue, wide eyes...) are represented in almost every ancient civilization (aztecs, chinese, indians, egyptians...), and although all got different myths about them, all of them shared the idea that it represented a bad thing.

Jeru Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I wrote another e-mail address at Gameolith. Maybe this one will elicit a response of some kind.Worst case scenario, we'll just upload Ludo's work onto the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo38 Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 I repost the box-art updated with the new Windows logo and cleaner Tux and Apple logos.The large size is a simple JPG for you to enjoy and use. The small size is a PNG scaled as Gameolith's request (180x272). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeru Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 I forgot to update that Gameolith has written back:Hi Aviv,We're readying a new submissions system at the moment, which willstreamline the process of getting a game onto Gameolith. The firstversion of this is very near to completion, and we'll be able to openup access to it in a few days. Once this is done, we'll resume addinggames, including 0 A.D., which I still want to see on Gameolith! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeXoR Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Thanks Jeru for the update on Gameolith. Patience.Where is it? I can't find it. Is that what's meant by "Patience"? ^^ Edited October 25, 2012 by FeXoR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo38 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Where is it? I can't find it. Is that what's meant by "Patience"? ^^I say "patience" because we have to wait for Gameolith to fix their website before they include 0AD in their pages. In a few days it should be done.

Ludo38 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Tonight I wanted to try a Persian version of the box-art, and here it is !(the small version is scaled like the Gameolith request for box-art, 180x272.I will try similar alternative box-arts with the other civilizations of the game. That makes nice box-art but we also can see them as eventual posters (for sale ?). FYI, the fresco photo used here is a public domain pic I found on Wikimedia Commons.

Loki1950 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 (edited) That was my impression as well so you better be careful with your language usage Lion English is not a regular language it has all sorts of irregular idioms and history which is why it is one of the most difficult to learn Enjoy the Choice Edited November 4, 2012 by Loki1950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo38 Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 a Roman Relief?,Yes man, or pottery, or painting from Roman age. It has to be picture of warriors, and it has to look f... good I've searched one for the Celts, and the only Celt warriors ancient picture I've found doesn't work as great as the Greek pottery of the Persian relief.

Ludo38 Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Sure, such mosaic is lovely and in good shape, but it's not warfare-oriented, then doesn't fit.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
