Could you post a screenshot of the lightsaber instead of the word "Image"?

the screenshots show up for me, but i know what you are talking about, i've seen it too. does the Katana's screenshot show as "Image" too? you can go look at them at: http://sites.google.com/site/lotuswolfs ... p/the-shop
They will be all the way at the bottom of the page.

Yeah… Firefox displays the image alt-text when it can't find an image at the specified URL, and for phpBB, posts with images give all images an alt-text of "Image". Or at least, that's what I think phpBB does.

The katana shows up fine.

On your site, the lightsaber shows up fine, too.

The blade is way too thin IMO. You should double or increase it by 50% or so. Maybe 50%-75%.

do you mean thin or long? cause the lightsabers in starwars were pretty thin, maybe with the glowing the were thicker, and for lugaru i tried to make it relatively as long as the original sword, for gameplay purposes. (like, so it has about the same reach as the original)

Strange, it looks about the same thickness as a lightsaber now…

Yes, I did mean thickness, not length.

i was going for a Damascus Steel look... it could've been better, but it looks fine in-game. and it is turned forward when it is swung, go into slow motion, and watch it work! the only thing is: stabbing looks really funky, but hey stabbing is for psycho's, we're civilized barbarians here!

Lotus Wolf, what you're doing here is a hobby, not a job. So as soon as it affects your mood, stress level etc negatively, stop working on the weapons. I got that feeling from your other post there, that's why I'm saying this. Don't feel obligated to do any of this.

As for the update, it'll have to wait since I've been very sick lately. So don't wait up or whatever ;)

i didn't mean stressed about the weapons, i enjoy making them. its just that invertin asked for this days and days ago, so i felt bad that i was making other peoples stuff when he had asked first. but yeah, i'm sorry you are sick, i had a bad cold a few days ago... its going around i guess... anyway, thanks, no hurry on the converter, i've found the X2Solid to work very well on my vista.

hey, Sploder, i have the ax finished on early stages, i think the spik on top looks kinda wierd though, so i'll post a pic of it soon, but anyway: id there a specific name you would like for the weapon?
