Mapping Elements, Starting with Preset Tables and Chairs

[Lightminder]

nice subtle shading on the right side makes it look like tghe light shines from the right.

beautiful chimney, just what i needed for a map of a warehouse. what is rule/guideline etiquette for aknowledging source on map elements? its just for home group use but might as well learn what to do correctly while i begin, practice make permanant.

There is no set guideline, and I'm sure everyone feels differently about this issue. For me, if you just use a few of my elements then no recognition is needed. If my stuff is a major part of your map, then a simple acknowledgement is good. Something like: "Many objects by Bogie". I'm not fussy about it, but some people take it very seriously. If in doubt, it is always better to recognize the artist. As for commercial use, I feel about the same, with the exception that you can't just package up my stuff and sell it as is. As part of a map, that's cool. and if you get rich, don't forget me.

I made a new trapdoor.

Nice, I'll be using it soon.

Although, if I can be nitpicky, the ring handle thingy feels a bit weir. I'd have put it facing down, as it seems like it would swing that way as the trap closes...

[Bogie]

I see what you mean. Here are 2 more versions.

[Simon33600]

Very nice!

I will certainly ne using those shortly...

[Bogie]

On good advice I made some more versions with runes.

Still in Trapdoor mode: here is another I just made.
