It could be help for some authors with shallow pockets, for some kind of games developed in Purebasic.
Please use my site for more info.

I tried to match the proper forum topic to place this thread.
Is there a way to place these kind of posts here, or everyone developing freeware here? If it is a non-profit forum I apologise for everyone.
Mods: if it breaked the rules, please remove it.
If I might point out, there could be such topic or area of forum useful.
There is such at indiegamer , gamedev.net or other game developing site because it provides members either free or commercial resources for their game developement.
But I don't argue, if it is non-welcomed here then please remove it.
Thank you,
Peter

Don't worry about blueznl, he's an early morning grouch before he's had his 15 cups of Turkish coffee with cats dissolved in them as a sweetener and tends to jump on people until he's had them.
I won't presume to speak for AlphaSND; the creator of PureBasic except to say that the "Announcement" forum is generally a repository for announcements about applications/games/other products developed in the PureBasic programming language and as such, your package does not seem to fit the bill.
It's not good form to put commercial advertising for a product in here as AlphaSND is paying for the forum out of his own pocket. Simply announce the product, give a quick explanation as to what it's about and a link. Your own web page should be used for the commercial side of your product and not the forum.
Does this help?

Maybe just move it to off-topic?
No harm done.

Okay, thank you!
I edited the topic starter.
Please everybody: use my website for info!
I meant really no harm, I don't want to rip off Frederic, or the community.
I am also a registered user of PureBasic, so not absolutely alien.
Thanks,
Peter

How about doing a sprite pack too?

Yeah, this current pack only server RPGers or MMORPG developers in the game programming scene. Do you think a sprite pack would be of interest among game developers?
What should it contain? RPG Portrait Pack was evident, DMs, players might customize their character, they might work as avatars, or PDF makers (RPG) might use them as inside illustrations. So fantasy/SF characters were evident.
But what should a sprite pack contain? Spaceships? Cars, Bonuses?
It is a harder topic, maybe more packs should be produced...
Thanks for the idea, anyway!

it's tea, earl grey or ceylon (depending on if it's raining or not), and it's not cats, it's kittens, and yes i jump on them if they're the atomic kind...
euh...
skip that
anyway, real reason was that it's a commercial announcement that appeared to have little to nothing to do with purebasic, and that's i think not the right way to use the board
but yeah, i'm a bit grumpy (i always am when working 60+ hours a week) and it's fred's board after all

No problem blueznl, I PMed you my concerns, I didn't want to argue in public. I meant nothing wrong to Frederic. My possible audience could be from RPG makers to game developers and since I am a member (and customer) of more systems (Game Maker, PureBasic, BlitzBasic) I put this ad on all forums.
The post not competing with the original product, but (I feel) help the developer to get legal artwork content (only if interested in).
I also apologised if my post seemed to eager for money. The whole package (if you look at the price point) is not aimed for that.

Thank you! I hope you can use it. Since the max resolutions are around 700x900 and 500x1000 these mostly fit for electronic use.

Old thread, but a while back, he released a free update to this graphics package for existing users. This has been very helpful in my games.
