    Hi all,

    My group and i will be using d20pro at the table, not online. So players won't be using their mouse to scroll over monsters and see the effects on them.

    Trying to find a solution, and seeing that i can place creatures over one another,
    i decided to create creatures and have a status effects icon for their image (PNG files with transparent background)

    I found these status effects icons (dazed, prone, etc..) here : http://forums.rptools.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=4682

    Their current format makes for very small icons, so i enlarged them a bit. I also made sure that they don't overlap too much

    Here's a prntscrn of all the creatures i created for the status effects

    Here are the exported creature files if anyone wants them.

    (unzip, open d20pro, game library, then Import the files)

    These are great! I think it further shows how creative we can be as a community. These would be good to include as a future feature. Perhaps we could expand the Alter> Hold/Release to an Alter>Status, then prompt the user to select one or more images from a set of icons (taken from a directory). Those would then be applied in clockwise fashion around the portrait.
