Finally had time to test the Can I add new icons to HeroScribe? tutorial. Got all the programs, ran through the tutorial and now I'm excited about making my own icons. (even more than when I read the tutorial before)

I must say, those scripts are amazing. I would love to have something similar to automatically setup and enter the html code when adding material to yeoldeinn.com. Although I do enjoy coding everything myself. But back to the icons... gonna make a few of my own and test them out!

After all the time that tutorial took me, I'm actually more glad than you are |_P
Not that I'd like having users doing the job by themselves, but it's cool to know they can without our help.

For someone like me, who will be in need of a LOT of icons as projects move on, it will save you a lot of work and time. You can focus on other things, like making icons for those who can't do it themselves, working on quests of your own, and most importantly... playing HeroQuest!

I've already tested out a large room icon and it worked out well. Just need to simplify it some to keep the file size down. For me, that seems to be the trickiest part. Keeping them simple, yet appearing detailed enough to be recognisable.
