Thanks for the mail Jacynthe;
those were the icons I had actually already found but since then I found some other icons on my pc that look a bit better in quality so im gonna compare each set of files and use the best out of them 🙂
but thanks for going to the trouble to send me them!
I have began to start the coding on the mod but it may take a few days to get done 🙂
edit - im aiming for releasing this at the end of the week 😉

Hmmm... shouldn't you start a thread for that location mod and keep this one for the starsign just for the sake of easier searching and all that balloney? 😉

This is pretty cool-- I installed it easily and am using it now.
The one thing I wanted to point out: in the installation Read Me, the textareas for some reason CANNOT be clicked in, highlighted, and selected. I had to view the source of your read mes in order to get the code to copy.

Just as an addition to the "Readme" comments. I HATE HATE HATE the color changing thing. It is hard on the eyes, and for mod instructions that is a bad thing.
Other than that I think the mod is great 🙂

Glad you like it Azurite
the textarea issue is strange as I've just tested the readme again and it works fine for me, but i'll look into that for when I finish my current mod (the location field) thanks for bringing it to my attention though 🙂

I did the colour changing thing to be different :p but yes maybe it could be a bad thing when doing mod instructions
again glad you like the mod and thanks for bringing the readme issues to my attention

It took me a few minutes to make sure the color-changing background wasn't just me! I honestly thought I was getting sick or something, but when I was unable to select the text (I was using Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.7 on a Mac, btw), I went into the source code and found the javascript that was making it change colors. It was a little bizarre, because I honestly thought I was sick or something!
