Title: Amazing and Unique Character Portraits and Descriptions you found ingame!
Post by: Renodin on December 14, 2017, 07:17:32 PM
Hey there!

To honor the new feature we've been given by the Dev's. I propose we hopen this here thread and share fun, amazing, unique, special or otherwise noteworthy character portraits and descriptions.

I'll kick it off with one of mine. Sadly I couldn't find anyone else yet or I'd have opted for that.

Enjoy!

Is there a way to see other players' character portraits?

That's amazing, such detail, such passion, the geometric nature of that portrait is truly a masterpiece.

I know, right! MS Paint has an awesome lines feature. It can also do circles! I really overextended myself to actually draw the face, though, that crayon tool is hard to use!

Get message from them > there is a [Character Details] button at the bottom.

Also, if you know their character ID (usually found in the URL), you could also just modify the URL to view their character info.

But we've been meaning to make this a more general page which you can view, without having to do the above.

Meh. Her picture got widened horizontally and cut off vertically. Suddenly, chubby-faced Sigrid.

Yes I noticed the resizing as well, since I set it as fixes sizes..

Guess you'll have to work around that.

It was broken for me as well.

That is why I put 200x200 picture on wiki and used that.

What is the URL you are using?

What is the URL you are using?

Yea, once the pic is uploaded, right-click on it, then "view image", which usually opens a new tab with an url finishing in .jpg or .png (or whatever file extension you used). This URL should work.

Also, that looks like someone raised by a mix of the Blood Cult and the Bloodmoon Cult.

From what I see, you are still using 'https://imgur.com/4Z9DJZA' instead of 'https://i.imgur.com/4Z9DJZA.jpg'

The first is not a picture link, the latter is.

Perhaps there's a bug with the code that prevents changing it?

No, not at all. Just tested it myself.

From what I see now, Glaumring is usin "http://battlemaster.org/'https://i.imgur.com/4Z9DJZA.jpg" as URL. Not sure where that comes from.

Please use:

1. Whenever they send a message, there will be a [Character Details] link underneath.
2. If you know their character-ID, you can also simply edit the URL

But our next TODO for this feature is making it easier to view other characters descriptions. Bear with us.

I just had some fun moving my descriptions from the wiki over, along with adding pictures of my characters.

Here is my Yao Ling, high priestess of Daishi on Beluaterra.
