I'm creating icons for your spellpack mod. Im almost done the electric loop icon (mostly recolored sketch snapshot and removed bolders) and whirlwind icon (still needs recoloring and be made border-less). Do you have any ideas for the rest that need remaking? For example what would be a good icon for improved slow and greater shout?

Galactygon asked if someone could created icons for the spells that don't have the Baldur's Gate style icons. The spell icons of Ive come up with have a border similar to bg. Colors in the icons have a limited color palette so I try create icons with limited colors.I make them by pencil, take picture of them with dsi, extract picture from sd card, grayscale the color with gimp, use selection tool to select color, fill the similar color with appropriate color, zoom when necessary to avoid selecting to many colors, shrink to the maximum pixel size allowed for icons in game (32 x 32), and save as 1:1:1 jpg floating point. Since I originally draw them by hand on paper with only pencil, this makes it difficult to recolor since all the original colors shades of gray. If you have a background for the icons that you could give me that has same texture as bg icons I would be greatful closedeyes.gif . Galactygon has stated in his/he readme quote:"Earlier versions of SpellPack have spell icons ripped from IWDII and PST. These icons look out of place with the existing BGII icons. I'd like to change this for SpellPackB6, but I don't have the time to draw new icons". Ive yet to convert the small amount of icons of made into bam files.
