There's a problem in the SSB4 Wii U thread. People like making rosters in the form of LISTS. This is SMASH BROS. The magic of Smash is SEEING all these characters together. If I wanted to READ about them together, I'm sure there are plenty of fan fictions out there for that nonsense. So, I was thinking it would be neat if there was a FLASH thing with a big pool of character icons and you'd just drag them around and create your own roster image. BUT YOU WON'T FIND THAT HERE! Unfortunately, I have to work within the confines of MS Paint and BBCodes, but I'm going to make this happen as well as I can. So, how 'bout some examples:
Well ain't that something? You see, each icon is its own image, and they line up when pasted next to each other. Now, to be clear, I really meant MAKE YOUR OWN roster. It takes a bit of DOIN', but it's not really hard, just tedious. Take a bit of time to plan your roster out first, and then get to work. Once you're done, you may as well pretty it up by collapsing and centering it, keep your post bookmarked for easy access, and then paste it wherever you want. I am very sorry about that, but it's the only way I could think to MAKE THIS HAPPEN.
Another thing I'm sorry about is how ugly it looks. All I have to work with is MS Paint, so these icons don't look the best. I literally just downloaded GIMP and learned how to add transparency to these things to make them look SLIGHTLY nicer. If someone else would like to add their own BETTER LOOKING icons here, by all means PLEASE do so. I just ask that they are... composed in a way that makes them easily line up with one another. It is a bit of a TASK to get these things all saved separately like this too, so it may not be something you just want to dive into.
Now, I don't think I need to write a tutorial for how to create these, but if I do, please say so. Basically just paste the URL's without spaces one after the other until you feel like creating a new row. To do that, just press enter, and paste away once more.
By the way, here is the Photobucket album I'm using for these things: http://s1063.photobucket.com/albums/t512/SmashRosterMaker/?start=all
The password is: 5ervice I was thinking using a password would help keep the BANDWIDTH USAGE down, but if it's really a hassle then just let me know and I'll make the album public.
I hope that makes copying and pasting the URL's that much easier, since they come with IMG tags already around them, and you don't have to right click to copy them to your clipboard.
