@WeathermanSweden - I think that is what Dalton was suggesting above my last comment. I did think about it, but the built in shadows and the sheer number if bits and pieces might make it rather difficult. I think I need to finish the set before I can show you how many that might mean.

@Quenten - thank you :)

I thought of that, and then I thought... That means I would have to do a different banner body for each basic style I created, and then a different banner right end for each basic style I created, and then a different left end, and... by the time I finished this set could be about 500-1000 symbols strong. Then at the receiving end you would get a massive jigsaw puzzle where the pieces that you want might not necessarily be right next to each other in the catalogue due to it's sheer size - meaning that you would have to go hunting for the right ends for the body you have chosen. There is also the shadow problem - where you have to place each piece of your chosen banner exactly right on the spot so there are no horrible overlaps/underlaps of the shadow - which is essential to making them pop. (The shadow being built into the symbol).

Anyone else have any thoughts along these lines?

I think you may be right, but I don't know. Remy will probably have the answer, maybe? And the small difference may be down to just wanting to have nice round numbers.

Thank you :)

I've done a bit more - a few ideas.

In this week's Live Mapping session Ralf will be doing something a little different. Please come along and join in with us as we watch Ralf make a Sci-fi Diorama using the Dioramas add-on.
