Stats Background
I know I posted another further up, but wanted to create two so that its nice and tidy, Liquidate if needed!
I was wondering what the views are on a background or gui (or whatever its called) for the stats / map area. In my mind, the rest of the tiles version is so colorful and graphical, that sticking with the very old school Ascii 'stats on a black background' seems slightly out of place (especially with the graphical inventory). However, some people might like the oldschool-ness of it, and I can understand that. Obviously, it'd need to be very unobtrusive and stretchable(?).
My main thought was how much I used to love the GUI in Heroes of Might and magic 3/old school rpgs, and I think that it would complete stone soup tiles as a completely graphical program.
Again, I'm very willing to help with the graphics, and would be happy to mock up a few backgrounds for testing (although I would have no idea to implement it into the game (my coding suuuucccksss)).
