Perplex City Card Manager set icons Hi
It's got to the point where I think I need to be preparing the card manager for the next wave of cards. In order for the new cards to be visible, I need to create some icons to represent the new card sets.
To set the scene a little - I can't draw. Never could. Luckily the set icons so far haven't been that tough to come up with - open the gimp, scan, trace, tweak has been the formula up to now (a circle is about the most taxing it's been). However, some creative so-and-so at MindCandy has decided to make my life difficult - all the new ones have got *bendy lines* for goodness sake, and try as I might I can't find the gimp's 'ivy' tool ...
So, I think I might need a hand. Is there anyone out there who thinks they could help me out, and come up with some icons for the three remaining sets (ivy, flames, water)? They need to be 16x16 transparent pngs - I've included the 5 current icons below for reference.
Any help given will be gratefully received - I'm sure we could come up with some cards-for-icons barter scheme if needs be.
Many thanks
B

I'd be able to do sthg for you on a different format, like jpg? but not experienced with pngs.

Anything you can do would be a great help. I can always do the png conversion myself.

For the purpose of putting this thread to bed, I thought I'd let you know that I now have the remaining set icons (see attachments).
Many thanks for the offers of help, to all in #syzygy for the 'it needs to be more flamey' comments and specifically _SilentlyBroken for pointing me at the perfect image.
The new sets (and cards released so far) should be available in the card manager very soon.
cheers

I think I'm right in saying that it's not there cos it doesn't exist any more I'm afraid zakorath. It's gone the way of a number of the fan sites and drifted into the ether. We're back to pencil and paper for keeping track - sorry.
Though, if anyone knows otherwise it'd be great to hear from you...

I've renewed the domain, so things should spring back into life presently. Apologies for the momentary interruption to service.
Things will be back as they were for the forseeable, but I'm unlikely to be making any further updates to the code or card list. If anyone would like to take over the project then I'd be happy to pass things on.

Actually, they just refunded my money for the domain renewal - it appears to be stuck in some kind of expire-limbo and I can neither renew nor register it.
If I can't get things sorted soon, I'll put the code and binaries up on Google code - no save/restore card list functionality sadly, but at least people will still be able to use it.
