Thank you, Tigii, I appreciate that, mate! :smile.gif:
It does still need a lot of work to be considered complete, but there's enough little gadgets and gizmos to play around with for the time being, and I'm lucky to have had some very kind users, who have donated some excellent things.
Ha ha! Thanks, ssaint! That's awesome! Definately the biggest trophy/prize I've ever had. Even bigger than Notch's. lol! I'm laughing at all the cactii on the dune ridge. It looks like they've all come over to goggle at the trophy tower, chanting, "He's not worthy, he's not worthy!"
It's funny too, 'cos I was just working on your personalised minecart and I thought I'd just check for any posts in my thread and...behold...there was your post with the biggest, flippin' trophy in Minecraft!
I'll have to do a good job on your minecart now! :biggrin.gif:
More like "We're not worthy!" Haha! And yes, my evil scheme to get the best minecart is unfolding brilliantly, buahahaha.

Ha ha! I'm gonna graffiti it now! Actually, that would make it the first vandalised minecart in Minecraft!

Oh no! My evil plan has crumbled beneath my feet. Now what? I suppose I should give you in recompense.
Ha! All safe, no worries, I couldn't find any spray cans. :sad.gif:
Well that's 10 'Company' minecarts done so far. I'm going to take a break and think how best to upload them while I get some exercise in. I'm thinking along the lines of putting them all in one post here on the thread (individual .png files) then everyone can see everyone else's variations.
It would make it a lot easier for me than packaging everything up individually and then posting an icon and skin with a note to each person. I can just send out one simple notification PM to each person saying, "come and collect your personalised minecart".
Hopefully they should make a nice little colourful display of vehicles too!

Here are the first 5 completed minecarts (with appropriately coloured icons) delivered in the same order their owners posted their requests on my thread. The next batch will be posted as soon as possible...the paint still needs to dry! :biggrin.gif:

Rename your minecart skin to 'cart' and drop it in the 'item' folder in 'Glimmar's Steampunk' texture pack in your Minecraft texture packs folder (or your texture pack of choice). Make sure you put it in your active texture pack and not the 'minecraft.jar', otherwise everytime you run Minecraft it will get over-ridden by the cart skin in whichever texture pack you're using...meaning you won't see any change.
The icons are colour coordinated with the minecart of your choice, but you don't need to use them to get the cart to work. However, if you want everything to match perfectly, you need to paste these co-ordinated icons over the top of the existing cart icons on the 'items.png' sheet in the 'gui' folder. Use a graphics programme that can handle transparency, like Photoshop, Gimp or Paint.net.
I hope I've got close to what you wanted. Have fun! :smile.gif:
Will there ever be custom airship balloon requests?
Mmmm? Mmmmm? I'll have to think hard about that one. It's tempting, but a bit more involved. The beauty of the minecarts is it being limited to just three letters and basic colours. However, even that has taken me longer than I thought it would do. It's not so much the artwork, as co-ordinating, filing and uploading, etc. that's very time consuming.
I certainly want to do more one off designs for the airship for greater choice for my pack and anyone who likes the steampunk style. I won't be doing any other pixel sizes though, that would have to be the responsibility of those artists who work in higher (or lower) resolutions than 32x32.
When there's a few more designs, I 'might' think about trying a few simple personalisations...choice of existing design coupled with a few letters or ready made symbols on the side. Already I can see it eating up a lot of time better spent on finishing other things off. :sad.gif:
The there's the inevitable updates to keep on top of. Lol! I badly need a holiday just thinking about it.

Take as much time as you need to. We understand, :smile.gif: Well most of us anyways... XD
P.S. HOW DARE SOMEONE BEAT MY TROPHY OF NOTCH! I shall set out to make the biggest EVAR! with OVAR 9000 blocks! -Bad rampage over.-

Ha ha! Just a 'thank you' is really fine. Honestly! I'd hate to be the cause of global warming in Minecraft.

I think when you made the SteamPunk pack, that was Minecraftia Warming... XD Pun is needed, for this one.
However, it just isn't working! Am I doing something stupid, 'cos I'm minecart blind? Or are there still blocks (due to the phishing debacle) on certain images.
Could someone brainier than I take a look at the code above and just see if it's down to a daft mistake? Many thanks indeed. :smile.gif:
It would appear that url and simg don't get along very well. You have to use img tags if you want to have the picture act as a link. Kinda annoying if you ask me, but oh well.
Haha! Lol! That's pushing it! :smile.gif: I'll see what i can do, but it won't be quick and you realize this goes against all my principles of modesty! :biggrin.gif:
*snippitysnip*
I went afk for a few days, came back to check here and this gave me a giggle, i cant wait! :biggrin.gif:
Glimmar, would you consider releasing your template for the minecart for those of us who are handy with a pixel-brush? If you have one for the airship too, that would also be appreciated.

Curse PremiumAnd what I think is the correct way of coding it to link to my thread:
