  • Thanks Shessar, these are really useful.

    I'm going to try to figure out how to convert more images.

    If you do, please, post them here.
  • yeh I managed to get 1 icon but not 100% well. GIMP is very confusing and I'm not 100% how to turn them into varicolor either.
  • I have about 100 transparant symbols (Background), but I don't know how to turn them into varicolor symbols.
    I'm using GIMP and the help is with photoshop so if someone who uses GIMP can show me how to do it ?

    I have some a set of coloured symbols I can share

    Do you have the Tome of Ultimate Mapping? There is a tutorial there in the symbols chapter that explains how to make varicolor symbols with GIMP.
  • Nah I don't have it but I found :
    http://www.profantasy.com/cchelp/varicolor_png_symbols.htm

    Downloading photoshop now to see if that works.

    Yea, the helpfiles contains quite a lot of information. Note that you have the same help files installed locally on your computer as well, simply select Help from the Help menu.

  • Are the files for these still available ? The links Take me to unfound pages.
    Are there any more resources from PF other than the CA 15 ?

    Thank you

    I don't think anyone but the original site owner would know the answer to that one.

    The person who owned those pages, I mean, not PF.

    You are quite welcome.

    I now consider these open to use as you wish. Here's why:

    These images are not art created by the owner of the heraldry site, but rather scans they made of images from heraldry books, so while the collection was one they made, the art itself did not belong to them. I took their scans, removes the background, cleaned up the fuzzy pixels, repaired the art where it was damaged (some of it quite extensively), and modified everything to work with CC. After all of that I consider these a derivative work since the images are no longer the same ones in the original collection. The images in the CC3+ files are my collection and are free to use as you wish.
