CS - we discussed this a few weeks ago now but I havent heard from you about it so I just plodded on with it. I haven't yet put the Unit Datasheets or Army List in yet though as it is WIP at the present. If anyone is unhappy with it I'll take it down. Beautified Tau List |

Nice work Dobbsy! My only suggestion would be to make the "text box" background a light grey as opposed to a colour. Looks good! |

Looking good. Man - do you have some document formatting skills or what Dobbsy?  I'd like to see a different support craft picture. Maybe a Large Manta looming over a city. Co-Ordinated Fire in the header looks funny with the capitcal "O". Orange background is a bit dominating. Maybe very light grey. Big space after notes is screaming for gi-normous Tau picture or several model pictures... something. Looks beautiful though as IS... really, hats off. |

Thanks guys! The orange fits better when you see the MSWord theme of the page - it's a parchment type deal but for some reason it doesn't show up on my MSword at home (where I saved the document) The pictures were all I could find for the moment so i slotted what I could find in where it looked good while trying to get the right pic for the blurb. Chroma- I'll be putting in pics of minis when I do the Army list and datasheets up. I didn't have time last night   The one thing I don't have is a Manta mini. I can put in everything else though.

Too bad Konqueror didn't like the file format. I could read the text fine, but none of the pictures showed. I'll have to try using the Windows box. :yuck: Certainly for download purposes, once we get the list squared away, it needs to be a PDF, just to be more accessible. Would it be possible to raid pictures from official GW/FW sources, or are we just using minis-at-hand for these? |

Not a good idea - if a would-be Tau-gamer saw Dobbsy's models he'd dissolve in tears and crumple the list, despairing of ever equalling that sort of quality....   Nice work Dobbsy. What is it with Tau players... good at painting, modelling, formatting....

It's related to that plan, plan, plan, ... EXECUTE! way of thinking that the Tau army requires. I just wish I could paint Epic minis half as well as JG or Dobbsy. |

Nicely done. We should probably get together 'virtually' to share resources and discuss ideas on this. I will contact you. If you havent had a PM in a couple of days, drop me a message. Good work. |

Not bad! Just an idea - if you try www.primopdf.com you'll be able to download an app that will let you create an Adobe Acrobat file of the piece. Gary |
