how does that look with a background? is there any transparency?

Meway feel free to improve if you like =]


Snapple
You bite it, it bites you...
or: Has a bite to it.

I rather let people finish there own projects. The tut-mask was a one time thing for my own experience.

How about, you bite snapple or snapple bites you.
btw I like the concept. The apple could use some work, the texture and the dark areas of the mouth are strange. Its a bit toony IMO.

Here is an updated version of the jello icon. And here is what you wanted: if it was transparent Hope I helped.

yeah GY food items never drop. they are Grave Yard Inn store items and will appear in store menu and player inventory only.
so as long as they look good against player inventory BG color...they should be fine.

I can add transparency with eraser set to a % in gimp if people really think this needs to be.

And yes the snapple needs some work still...I gave the concept a shot but, "Attack or the killer tomatos", comes to mind.
I work it over again and see what happens...just no Mick Jagger lips and tongue... =]

Snapple
better version

I suggest a bit darker to show its "evil" side. And more shadowing on the top.

looks good as is imo..
""Attack or the killer tomatos"" just a idea ,but why not make it in to a mob...

I tried to adjust the sizes and colours a bit so everything matches existing items. After resizing, the anti-aliasing on the snapple, beetle juice, and skull mug got messed up. If someone doesn't mind fixing that, I would appreciate it greatly.

Here are the items as the appear in your inventory

i hope this helps ...

Not exactly what I wanted. a background is something with detail but the color black does show me it is without transparency.

I must say i like those pieces, especially the snapple
BUT
it really doesn't fit the tmw style.
it's all too smooth and with too many details and too many shades of colors.
Just try to keep it simple

i also have something especially about the snapple. I must say i totally fell in love with it but we have already two kinds of apples in the game and things start to come again and again in different versions (e.g. monsters) so I would rather not have another apple... maybe make it a biting plum or pear or tomato ... just so it is something different

and to round things up... here my first try on the idea "fried eyeballs"... just a quick try to show what i mean.
I chose the wooden bowl because at a grave yard i feel that things should be wooden or made of stone or dirty glass... after all we are talking about an inn and not a restaurant and also not about modern times... ok whatever, here it is (still looks more like gold nuggets than eyeballs)

You should put a nerve under it because it doesn't seem to be an eyeball at the first look. Here is what I did in 3 sec watch in hand to give you an idea...

hm the yellow things in the brown thing where supposed to be the eyeballs... in a bowl... i guess i try that one again haha.. or really make it a big fried eyeball?

Hahahaha lol! You could make 2 things :

1) A bole of fresh and juicy eyeballs
2) A single fried eyeball
