Portrait for Air/Storm Elemental hero
I was thinking about making a new Planeswalker hero for Conflux.
He/she would specialise in Air/Storm Elementals and obviously be an Air/Storm Elemental himself.
Does anyone have or know where I can find a small and large portrait for such a hero? Or perhaps there is a program I can use to change dimensions of a picture?
(Already tried searching for pictures with Google, but did'nt really find anything good.)

Well for an Air elemental portrait i can recommend portraits from M&M crpg series.
When it comes to the programs where you can resize picture and focus it on elementals face, GIMP or photoshop would do.
Also you'll have to play around with indexed colour palette and make sure that 2 first colours aren't used in your portrait, unless your picture (in-game) may experience some transparency colour problems.

Hmm I found a pretty cool pic of a Storm Elemental.
But apparently the images needs to be saved as .pcx files and I don't have a program that can save in that format. Do you know any?

IrfanView is a very good program for.pcx pictures, you can save them as .bmp, edit them in diffrent program and then save .bmp as .pcx, when you're done with editing.

BTW not very related about the topic, would you want to add more offense/armorer/logistics speciality heroes to game since Castle,Necropolis,Inferno,Conflux has no one of them and I think every town deserve to have at least one speicalists of offense/armorer/logistics for game balance. Necropolis does not really need since necromancy speciality is as good as offense/armorer/logistics but Inferno and Conflux really need these kind of heroes.

Hmm for some reason the new portraits does'nt show in Map Editor, even though they are .pcx files and are the correct sizes. (I think)
@Otuken
No I won't add any new Logistics/Offense/Armorer specialists, actually I was thinking about changing those that are already there, but perhaps not. (All 3 specialties are overpowered.)

I believe all towns have to have at least one of them or better to remove all offense/armorer/logistics specialists.

Yes that is also a possibility, but I hate to see the hero selection go down, I'd rather have it go up.

I play HotA and there I don't find them very overpowered, Galthran should be banned though. (So should Sir Mullich)
Intelligence specialists and Navigation specialists (when there is a lot of water) and Resurrection/Animate Dead specialists are also strong.

You could turn everyone in to +350 specialists, that way all heroes would be of similar value (this comment is IRONIC).

But why in Iron ? COPPERIC is not very nice as there is no copper in H3. Other "metallic" comment shall be better especcially for a +350 GP hero : GOLDIC.
