    I preferred the greener one... it would surely
    be overgrown with fern & etc. On the other hand
    I think that a normal wooden sign would fit even
    better... Who would even think of sculpting a signpost
    in stone... especially in a run down hole like this? ;)

    The tombstone sign post looks great. :)

    As to who would invest in a stone signpost, maybe they just stole a headstone from the nearest graveyard and painted it over. ;)

    I was contemplating drawing it out into a rock to give it more dimension or deepen it somewhat... as to the tombstone idea, I could put a broken off piece at the top...:dead:

    That's good Ax Thrower, real good. :)

    Post the split map images for the day and night maps, somewhere and I'll finish up the zombie gone fix. :D

    my 2c

    atm I think it looks a little disembody'd

    the idea of a large natural rock doesn't make sence in a swamp

    I doubt any one from nulb would've gon to the effort of putting it there

    some one draging a tombstone and painting on the back would make sence

    as would any large flat surface - decking, a wooden 'tombstone', a door.

    Even in Tombstone, the tombstones aren't made of stone; wooden - painted over. The stone ones kept getting stolen.

    IMO, it should point to several locations if it's a sign post. If it's a sign for the town itself, that's a bit different.

    I agree with Cujo that it looks a bit disembodied, and even a little cartoonish, to be honest. What about just reusing the post that Sitra had for Hommlet?

    Yeah, I gotta say that wooden sign post looks more the part after seeing that, Cujo would you be able to stick it on the split day/night map for that area and post the files here please?

    I havn't done any map stuff, and I'm not that keen to find out thats why I uploaded the psd.

    its the signpost and its shadow - which happen to be linked layers (the shadow layer's opasitie is set to somewhere about 50%)

    It'll be a copy and paste job and should be right to place anywhere on any map (like in the keep if someone does it there as well).
