A request for CariElf

from Stardock Forums
First, I want to say that there is another thread on the forums in which you are frustrated by and I want to just say thanks to you and everybody associated with this project. You all are everything a software user wants and more.

Now, on to my request! LOL Seriously, I don't know if there is any chance of this, or even if this is your area, but can we get a sinister smiley face? A cross between :) and >:( ? I know you don't like the vomitting smiley, so I stopped using it, but I think a sinister smiley would be really helpful for our friends in the Evil Empire or G.R.O.S.S.! Heck, even Ray has needed one today! LOL

Anyway, if you can, it would be nice. Thanks again from all the players. I hope you, Brad and everybody else don't get fed up with us, and will continue to be as friendly and helpful as you've always been.

Well, I'd like a pirate smiley with a headscarf and eyepatch, personally. But I suppose I'd be happy with a sinister smiley. :)

CariElf:

I hope you don't think I was using a compliment thread to ask for something from you! I just realized that it may have sounded that way.

Whether we get a sinister smiley or not, from the bottom of my (and our) heart...

THANK YOU!!

You guys have been super. I even upgraded to Drengin.net because of Stardock's support and interest in the players! It's hard to squeeze $30 out of me, too! I'm a tightwad! So, take that as the ultimate compliment!!

LOL! I'll ask Pat.  Maybe he can replace the puking icon with it.  Do you have an example that you could send him?

Unfortunately, no. :notsure:


But what I was looking for was the eyes of >:(
and the mouth of :) or something similar.

Replacing the puking icon would work great!

Okay, here's something like I was thinking. Of course, the horns are a bit much, but it would be okay!

It would be nice(since we're asking) if we could have the Esc key exit all screens. Sometimes I just want to advance 5 turns and I have to keep hitting done because I want to watch a fleet moving.

Another anoying thing is that when I put up the planets panel on the right and then choose a planet, if I hit done, the planets panel disappears and I have to reclick the planets button. Yes, I know I can scroll, but if I have too many planets to scoll down it might take awhile. Besides, I just sorted the planets panel so I could deal with similar planets.

Oh, and when i'm on a diplomacy screen with one race, it'd be nice if I could switch who I'm talking to without having to hit done. Just put some arrows up near the AI's picture to be able to go from one to the next. Some times I like to look at each race to see if they have any money left etc.

:VOMIT: :VOMIT: :VOMIT: :VOMIT: :VOMIT: :VOMIT: Now what she-elf wouldn't like that. It's green just like the trees in Rivendell or Rhelm of the lady of the wood. Even the ents would like that color.

I haven't seen CariElf in a while...

Are you on vacation? Busy with the XPack? Kidnapped by the CariElf Fan Club? LOL

Just wondering if you had talked to Pat about the sinister icon...I know it's kinda low priority right now, so please don't think I'm trying to hurry you! Just wonderin' :)

She's probably busy with the 3D engine. Have you seen the 3D screenshots in the Development blogs? Cool.

Where are the Development blogs? Sorry if this should be apparent.

No problems. It's a new thing. Check out www.joeuser.com and the Development category.

Is this planned for GC2? Looks good.
Reply #24 from Stardock Forums Top
Yeap, I suppose so. But seems like GC2 will only come in 2005 earliest.

Thats okay, that gives us another year and a bit of GC1. I may slow down at some point, but I don't see myself quitting in that time...

...oh and I like the idea of the evil smily. Fits my image of an evil hedonist.
