NEW FEDTERM CHARACTER AND PLANET PICTURES

by Hazed

This week there are lots of new FedTerm character pictures and one planet picture, so you can see what Fedders and their worlds look like.

In the character picture gallery we have:

  • Bubba - a male human in shiny armor with a particularly dangerous-looking sword.
  • Superbunny - a male rabbit who definitely has delusions of grandeur.
  • A whole bunch of male hobbits: Bilbo, Frodo, Meriadoc, Pippin and Samwise. I think they may have strayed into the wrong game!

Once again, all these pictures are of males, but at least this time they are not all human. But I really want to see the end to this gender bias - come on ladies and things, send in your pictures, please! Meanwhile, if you want to add these masculine manly males to your collection, download them by right-clicking and selecting Save As... and putting them in the pictures sub-folder of your FedTerm folder.

The planet gallery has one addition:

  • Outland in the Nether system, where there seems to be some kind of space aurora.

Grab this by right-clicking and saving it into the Fedterm\planets folder.

If you want to let other people see what you, or your planet, looks like, you should make a picture to show us and mail it to feedback@ibgames.com. Character pictures are 80 pixels wide by 96 high; planet pictures are 172 pixels square. Both should be in .bmp format. Character pictures should be named after your character, ie pugwash.bmp or newbod.bmp. Planet pictures should have a filename to match the planet name, ie marina.bmp or rigel 4.bmp.
