Have to add to the clamour for the "big tiles with names on" for auction please. As one of those afflicted with colourblindness, I'm having to resort actually "talking to my fellow players" Shocked to find out what's available - but like the man said, "no worries if this is too difficult to do", I'll just get to know people instead Smile. Thanks

Sorry folks for the trouble -- it seemed to look/work fine when I tested the changes, but perhaps it's a browser compatibility issue (I didn't try it on alternate browsers). I'll clean it up within the next 24 hours (and will use "big tiles with names" for the auction as well as on the board).

I've tried with both IE and FireFox and get the same little color squares and number with both those browsers. 7/21, 1250 EDT.

OK, should be fixed now (I hope). Let me know if you experience any problems.

Could the desert tiles be labelled too? I am still getting confused between what is desert and what is an empty space when I glance at the game.

Yes I know that they are different colours, the problem is that they are both blank, where as previously any tile on the board had a picture on it, now crops have text to distinguish that they are tiles that have been placed, but deserts do not.

If I buy some stock image's can someone edit them for the SBW's use. I never done this before but I understand that it is cheap as a $1 USD for small pictures which are perfect for tiles.

Can someone edit the image?

Ok I worked up some possible tiles. I haven't done the worker yet, but can and will add it to these tiles if they are worth continueing.



Alternate cane & dried tiles:

Do people like playing with just the colored squares? Any opinion at all on the tiles above would be appreciated. If you don't like them, say what you are looking for and if you do like them, cool.

They're very nice and certainly look prettier than the coloured squares (though I have to admit, I kind of like the simplicity of coloured squares).

I really like them. I wonder how they would look as a small square on top of a colored square so that the simplicity is kept, but the added flair is also part of the tile. Similar to how the original artwork had the icons, maybe just a square in that same quadrant of the graphic you created.

Your images look great. I prefer the "alternate" cane tile (the other one sort of looks like cigarettes) and the alternate "dried" image.

Like this?
or
I like it being centered more, but I think we might want to rethink how we represent the workers.

I actually really like the one where it is cornered. What do others think?

I agree the cornered. It leaves space for the workers to be placed/shown.
