Here's your chance to get a special version of geoGlyph with your graphics as Glyphs instead of mine. For a donation of $20.00 (see Tip Jar below) I will provide you with a custom-assembled version of geoGlyph with your very own designed Glyphs.

To create your own Glyphs, simply use geoPaint to create a graphic that you can e-mail to me (details to follow) with the following information in it:

Example 1 - 6x6 (one pixel all around the Glyph)
Using the Color feature of geoPaint, paint a 4x3 color-card area with two shades of gray, with white as foreground color. Design your Glyphs on these colored cards so you ensure they are formatted correctly. With one line of pixels all around the Glyph, they will be nicely separated from each other.

(Enlarged for illustration purposes)
Then using the Color feature of geoPaint, color the background of each black, and the foreground the color of your choice. The only color you may not choose for your Glyph pixels is black.

Example 2 - 7x7 (one pixel at top, one at left, around the Glyph)

Using the same color scheme as above, draw your Glyphs with just one blank line of pixels to the left and at the top. This may give you more freedom of design, but the Glyphs will be a bit more crowded.

(Enlarged for illustration purposes)
Then using the same Color feature described above, color your Glyphs in the colors you would like them to be.

Ah, one more cool point - your own INFO screen:

 

If you are using a Commodore emulator, simply send me the .d64 (or .d81) file with the geoPaint document on it.

If you are using a physical Commodore 64, convert your disk to a .d64 (or .d81) image using any of the useful tools available online, and send me the file.

Keep in mind the first 8 or 9 Glyphs are the most seen. 10, 11 and 12 come along later in the game, and the higher the Glyph the less likely it will ever be seen since advancement gets difficult, so put your favorites first, and least favorites last. The bottom row may be rarely seen. I will make the icon out of the top 3 rows of your Glyphs.

Use the PayPal Tip Jar below (this does require a PayPal account) or e-mail me for my address, for sending a money order.

E-mail your .d64 or .d81 file to: (note this is not hot-linked, so spam-bots won't attack my site.)

I will return the finished geoGlyph custom Desk Accessory the e-mail address you specify, or the one you used to order.

NOTE: THIS IS A LIMITED TIME OFFER. I MAY END IT AT ANY TIME. ANY CUSTOMIZATION DONATION SENT AFTER THE OFFER HAS ENDED WILL BE IMMEDIATELY REFUNDED!
