That's a first great coming back posting Pangloss! A welcome return. Serenity is one of my all time favourite films (based on my love of Firefly in general) - somebody is doing a Firefly ship too...

Mind if I include these on the Space Bar's neon sign? ATM all have the same Rocket entering Wormhole by A_H. But I could add the desgines to the pool and have a random ad selected to be displayed on the Bar's Neon Sign.

I'm not sure who that query was aimed at LB! If it was me, I can hardly say no, since I'm merely acting as a catalyst for the brilliant work of others that have gone before, converting from one medium to another...

This should have taken five minutes, but actually took hours and hours, mainly because I had some faff with multiple layers and too many images open at once in GIMP....

PS - @LB - help yourself - will I be delighted to see my work scattered around the ooniverse? Oh yes! (not that I can get 1.72 to work under Linux at the moment... :( )

Hi LB !!
If you ask me I do not believe that would be any problem. Just notify me about the ads you want for the spacebar so I will not include them in the constores.

If you want leave for me one of the two versions of Lobbies can- can Lounge :)

I was thinking to also include the cocktail-glass as a replacement for the drinking spaceman ad on the top of the station but if you want it as a replacement of the rocket take it (As an elder member of the forum i believe you have priority)

Just to say: anything graphical I have ever posted, or will ever post, can be used for any part of the Ooniverse. I just want to see my work scattered around the hundreds of worlds.

Especially Lave Fried Trumble. I'm very proud of Lave Fried Trumble.

Yum. And now with added animation.

A 2-Frame 1x1 example for your new station - or for anybody else who wants to use it...

I make no apologies either!

Great job commanders.
Thank you for your assistance
The merging of the first set is almost done. There are still some loose ends that I need to do.

What I really need this moment is to replace the one of the two 1 x2 billboards of every station with ads that have the firm name of the 4 original constore stations.
This means that I will need some ads with the words:

Pi-42 or Pi Forty Two
Tescoo oxpress
Star
Mall Wart

If it is possible to have the same colors that the doc uses for his constores (Pi-42 in something in green ect)

As Griff have said this will work better with animation frames of 128x66 or 256x128. I do not care if those ads will be in 2 or 4 frames as long as they will keep the same felling with doc’s textures for each station.

Also if someone can provide me with some alternative textures for the
Griff_station_glow_ads and for griff_station_adring would be great

@Ark - I will investigate - since I textured the original Tescoo Oxpress (based on my Ad for YAH by the same name) I should be able to come up with something!

Stay tooned!
