Ironhand, could you please only include the files that have been changed in the Upgrade version, or a list of files that have been changed?

Cheers.

Ironhand, to my eyes, the newer golden version of the text is a little hard to focus on. Almost as if it's blurred and lacks a bit of sharpness :/

Uh... yeah. I can do that.

In the next version, though,
I think no RAW will be safe from
the PURGE that is True Type Font.

Speaking of font...

I desaturated the edges so Cheddy will be happy,
but it's still got a little bit of yellow at the bottom,
which I personally think is very awesome.


Check that one out, Harmonica.
Does it still look blurry?   :-\

Could you make the holes in the little e and a slightly bigger? They look... odd when they are just solid black cut-outs like the title of the "Create a Creature" screenie you posted. Maybe even use some transparency on the shadows to make it look engraved when reversed (if it works that way?).

I like the new logo, it's much more chiselled and dwarfy :)

If you compare the weapon rack tile to the workshop tiles, the "edge" technique is totally different.

Well your the first person to express any opinion on the black outline or not question. As you point out I've been a bit random about where it is used. More consistency will probably creep in as the set matures - It's early days yet :P

Your post didnt really say; do you prefer with or without black outlines?

The game "dungeon crawl stone soup"

So many little items... DF badly needs more graphics support :(

I really like the new TT font!  Easy to read and looks sweet.  I agree that the "e" needs a slighty bigger hole, though.  Otherwise, pure win!

Sweet. That's what I like to hear.

And we're definitely sticking with outlines.
Because that's where all my sprites are at.

 Thanks, thats a good point though :)

 It will be a big step in the right direction getting the font support.

 And that shaded font is looking really nice, I cant wait to see what it looks like in the game :)

This may be out of place, though I tried my best to look in the thread before asking this. It's my first time updating from a previous version of the graphics set and I'm not really sure just how too do it? I downloaded just the update, instead of the full package (I downloaded the full package with the last version.) and I'd like to update it with the new set for my current fort. :)

Yes, sorry. It hurts my eyes. :(
And I prefer gray letters.

Yeah it looks kind of blurry to me too. The previous example didn't look blurry to me. I'm sure my eyes suck tbh.

Alright, check this out:

It's sharper around the edges,
and there's more space in the es and as.
