This does not fix the size of the hat problem...

regards,
I disagree with you there, Chicka; acorns often have large fat hats that make them stick out further than normal

Image
the picture you shown is proving my point, the sides of the hat dont stick out like im trying to prove.

Thanks for fixing it ali-g

When V0id started the topic, I modtly agreed with Chicka's opinion abot the hat. I have since seeked for acorn images and wikimedia provides a lot of interesting ones, which showed me that i had only a partial idea of what an acorn can be:

this one could make a funny hat or haircut in TMW:
Image (Oregon, California),
Image (green acorns), Image (lebanon oak), Image (white oak, from Louisiana to nothern Appalachians).
Anyway, the important thing is not realism: would we make cakes with acorns like Riskim? It is a matter of taste and the way we use it in TMW. I am still undecided.

The bodies would also have to change in that case, the acorns your showing have a longer/thick body than the one void made(minus the small one the hat almost covers completely), the hat would have also had to be a bit thinner and different texture(or thicker in ones case). or if he decided for the small one it would have had to be a small body with the hat almost covering it.


Bit it would be cool to have a acorn like haircut or possibly a acorn cap or such for players to wear that's a nice idea.

As you are the former artist of this icon and me an additionnal one, I propose a dual license : GPLv2 & CC BY-SA 3.0.
What do you think?

As far as I can understand, this does not exclude dual license when GPL is part of it.

That is true but I'm a little confused here... Ali-G what your doing is like saying V0id I will upgrade your computer if I can have ownership of it... You can give him upgrade to his original item.... but he would still be the one to license his item. I'm also confused on why you would suggest a duel license here. Sombody correct me if I'm wrong here?

If the goal of duel license in this case is to be Credited under all versions of the item(via cc) and source be provided with all copys (via gpl2) than I would say by all means do it. But yes thats still V0ids decision.

That's ok for me if that still allows the TMW project to use it.
As I'm no expert in license terms, if anyone with that knowledge can confirm all this works, that's fine :)

Indeed, that allows TMW project to use it since it is GPL(v2). Furthermore, it allows other projects using the CC BY-SA 3.0 license to use it too.

Thanks for the great work V0id,

under GPL(V2) anyone is free to use it. CC BY-SA just requires more documentation on where an object comes from and isn't as open source friendly as GPL(V2) as I don't believe it requires source. But under the CC BY-SA I doubt we will use it as we would be required to put V0ids name in some kind of documentation unless he explicitly says otherwise. I'm not 100% on this. And your name as well Ali-G if he is agreeing on co-rights.

[17:40] <Alige> V0id: Since the dual license works, I think we're good with the acorn! :) I'll ask Reidy what she thinks about it and if we can introduce it in Evol Online. If you're against having your named being written in the "LICENSE" file, please tell us. If not, then we're the 2 designers of this piece of art! :)
[17:41] <V0id> Alige: everything's fine for me
@meway: V0id and I are okay with the dual license, because it can work fine. Now please, mind your own business.

with all due respect this is a public development forum. That and you wish to replace my acorn. It is my 'buisness'. If you got a problem report me. I've delt with enough disrespect for one day. There is no reason to discuss what you think is my buisness any further. please enjoy your day.

p.s there is a PM button.
