Title: Piece images in SVG?
Post by ingwa on Oct 6^th, 2011, 9:06am

I'm thinking of developing a graphical user interface for Arimaa using C++ and the Qt toolkit. Qt can use vector images in the UI and not just bitmaps so the board will be completely scalable.

But the question is: is there a set of images of the Arimaa pieces in the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format? If not, I can try to ask a friend I have who is an artist to create them, but if there already is a standard set, I'd rather use that.

And btw, the license says I need written permission if I recall correctly. Where do I get that?

Nathan Hwang made some rather nice ones.

Thanks! They are not totally what I'm looking for, but a good set to start with anyway.
