SE4 Image ModPack

Previews

The ComponentPack, version 11

The PlanetPack, version 8

Description

This is a collection of images from many sources, intended to add variety to the mods created for Space Empires IV. This collection provides a large common pool of resources for modders and artists. Modders of any skill level can expand their use of graphics without increasing download size. Artists can see their work used in many more mods. And players need only download one set of extra images, rather than one for each mod. Submissions are accepted in the Image Mod Thread over at ShrapnelGames.
Any original submission is accepted, assuming that it:

is complete. (Contains all required images)
is new. (Not already included)
is intact. (Corrupted/damaged files must be resubmitted)
is reasonably neat. (To make the compilation easier)
contains an appropriate credit.txt. (Indicating any parties who should be credited with the work)

Key points:

All mods can use the same (enourmous) set of images, and reduce their download size.
additions are all incremental. That means no worries about updating a mod when a new image update comes out. Mods can say "uses imagemod v1.5 or higher"
(This also means it can be put into SE4's original pictures folder without causing any problems; all mods can then use the one file, saving HD space)
all working entries accepted. Modders have more to choose from, and the artists can be confident that at least one of the many mods out there will make use of their image.
