[QUOTE="Pinotage, post: 1634779, member: 15194"] As an avid play-by-post gamer and DM, I entensively use various bits of mapping software to create my combat maps and other maps for players. One of these programs is a Java Combat Mapping program that uses 32x32 bit icons to represent battlemap features such as characters, monsters, terrain and the like. Essentially, it's a online battlemap creator with terrain tiles and object tiles, not unlike Dungeoncrafter. The latter, however, has a significant lack of tiles to use for monsters and characters. I spend a huge amount of time surfing the web to find appropriate icons for various creatures and characters with a lot of success, but it strikes me that there might be a product out there that already has an icon for every monster in the MM for instance or scores of player character icons. Now these icons are essentially 2D images of the creature/character in question, not just faces such as the various Counter Collections have. I'm aware of icons from older programs such as FRUA, which generally have loads of icons, but they're sometimes very poor quality. So my question to you - are there any icons like this out there that one can buy to make maps with? Thanks! Pinotage [/QUOTE]
