Dwarf Fortress/X-Men. Yes.

I never noticed this until now but why does the human in the humans section of the OP looks so much like a medieval Professor Xavier from the X-Men?

Because it is a medieval Professor Xavier from the X-Men.  Mya~n.

Well shit I had no idea that was a thing.

not just any medieval proffessor X .... I always wondered who drew Patrick Stewart as a medieval king, since all the images from plays and such he's always had a wig on, every version I could think of..... so i had to google it.... the only bald medieval characters I could find was, him as king richard in men in tights:

and as leondegrance in excalibur, which I had never seen, and I'm a fan of medieval fantasy... none of the images I could find were worth the posting. but anyway....
this was the best image of him I could find:

hey just wondering if the old dwarf guild system/magic/golems will ever make a return

[WhiteLighter]

You whippersnappers are obviously too young to remember Patrick Stewart playing King Richard in the 1993 cdrom rpg classic, Lands of Lore.

What the heck is happening with my DF? I've just downloaded new version and that's what I got, no matter what font I choose

Just unfullscreen and fullscreen it or resize the window, it's an issue with the plays.tv recorder that tends to come with newer AMD graphics card drivers while GRAPHICS is set to YES

[scourge728]

So.. why does turning off creature sprites cause the game to switch to some weird elongated window?

Still need an answer for this

Perhaps a screenshot would help?

another solution is to use large address utility, and it wont do that anymore either.  you can find the large address utility in the utilities packaged with MWDF.  theres a description a page or 2 back on here on how to usee that.

I'm fairly certain that issue doesn't have anything to do with LAA.

[Putnam]

I'm absolutely certain it has nothing to do with it.

It looks pretty normal to me. If you expected it to take up your entire screen, and that's what it was doing before, my guess is that "turning off creature sprites" changed the GRAPHICS setting in init.txt to NO, so it's using the WINDOWEDX and WINDOWEDY settings there for your initial window size instead of GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX and GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDY. You can change WINDOWEDX and WINDOWEDY to 0 to have DF choose a resolution (which is what the graphics settings use by default), or copy the values from GRAPHICS_WINDOWEDX/Y. Your launcher might also have a setting for this that I don't know about.
