Messin' around with Photoshop

[Cresent City Kid]

and I came up with a new game.



The object: Wrest control of the rule making power from the bank.

1. Nice!

3. Not pictured

The cannon and battleship are in Jail. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200 billion dollars.

5. LOL

Awesome!

2. Very smart!

Could you make it longer?

The original Monopoly was quite a bit longer, IIRC...

:hi:

6. Longer as in bigger?

The board is low resolution and I'm dial up impaired. In terms of the game, taking control from the bank has taken long enough.

4. Nice, except you couldn't find a better source for the monopoly board?

Yours has really noticeable jpeg artifacts.

If you still have it in layers in photoshop, try using google image search. There are better versions out there.


edit: my link didn't work

7. Thanks

To be honest, I stopped searching after the first one I found, and tried to resample to no avail. I always save a layered working file so I'll try to fix it up and enlarge it a little.

8. Error message: access denied

I hear what you're saying, I'll try to clean it up.

9. Nice, but save it as a .gif or .png

There's a lot of mottling in your image because you saved it as a .jpg, which is a lossy format.

Advice from a photo editing hobbyist. :)

10. That problem was in their original source image. See post #7.

They're working on it right now. Shouldn't take too long until we see v 1.1.

11. This is with the new board

You're both right, jpegs are lossy, and the original image was already pixelated.

12. NICE :) Half that width and height would probably be best overall, though.

I bet that'd sail :)

Except for print, like on signs. This is good for signs.

I was thinking e-mails.

How about two versions?

13. I didn't plan on it getting that big

I usually check the size in pixels and adjust for posting, but I was rushing. I only planned on posting it here, but if you want to share it, feel free. I'm too tired to mess with it any more tonight.
