    Thats right you heard correctly, MyM has a NEW lobby for their 1.8 servers! After countless hours of work and several setbacks we finally came up with a design and put it into action. I give you...



    The reason I dont just make a gallery for these pics, is the fact that my 128x128 texture pack paired with shaders (it makes things look awesome!) is way to much data. I am not allowed to post it there because of that lol,also there are no portals linking to the servers directly just yet... but sit tight cause more awesomeness is to follow! ^_^

    If requested I will also take some shots with out texture pack or shaders, just let me know.

    Texture pack is Chroma Hills 128x128 v.12, shaders are SEUS Ultra

    Save them as jpeg and it should be fine without visible quality loss.

    if your jpegs are larger than 1-2 mb something is wrong with the way you convert them. Idk, which app you use to do it, it should have a setting in either percentage or 0-12. Take around 72% and you get small pictures without visible quality loss.
    If your software doesn't allow it or is causing the quality loss to be visible try one of those free services on the web like:
    JPEGmini - Your Photos on a Diet!
    TinyPNG – Compress PNG images while preserving transparency
    Compress JPEG Images Online

    Downloaded the JPEGmini software, in all honesty though, I was doing it by hand before by converting the name from .png to .jpeg and compressing XD They still show as pics for me but are still too big.

    Ill give this software a whirl though, I dont think ill ever post more than 20 pics a day so its free version should be fine.

    this doesn't work. Windows can't just convert them.

    I thought that the windows photo viewer could, their formats get changed with it according to the extensions after I modify them. Oh well, it used to be a thing back in the day. I guess microsoft figured out they could make more money by requiring more software lol.

    idk how you did it, but you can't on a pure windows machine. Changing the extension doesn't convert the content. So it only works with file endings that use the same content. e.g. a jar and zip being the same with a different ending or a txt and csv..

    Great work! I just loved the thematic! The train is just awesome, is well-decorated and structurated. Maybe adding a bit of detail in the station, like puting profundity on walls/floor will be very good for achieve a better effect on players eyes.
    Good work! Hope I helped expressing my opinions!
