Right now I'm using the Following code to show face icons in OOC chat I was wondering if there's a way to make the icon Bigger..because right now..Its barely noticeable.

M << "<B>\icon[usr.face]<FONT COLOR='#4d9ae6'>[usr.guild_name]<FONT COLOR=green>([usr.rank])([usr.race])[usr] OOC<font color=silver>: [msg]"


This is What I use to set each face icon just in case thats needed.

                    src.face=image('Bleach Faces 2.dmi',"Ichigo 2")


Question Two: I made a summon all verb but it summons all mobs in world =\ Which ISN'T very useful. why is it that it summons all? The code is following.

        Summon_All()
            set category = "GM"
            if(usr.lock)
                return
            world << "[usr] Has summoned all to him"
            for(var/mob/M in world)
                M.loc = locate(usr.x,usr.y-1,usr.z)
                M.dir = NORTH

No. I will not help you if you steal someone else's post. Make a new post of your own asking for help, and we might actually help you.

In your interface editor, edit the output window you're sending these images to, and go to the Options tab. There is a box to enter style information. You want to edit the .icon style to make icons show larger than 16x16 pixels.

Add the following to the Style box, and click OK.

.icon{width:32;}

Because you're telling it to:
>           // For every mob in world
>           for(var/mob/M in world)
>               // move them here
>               M.loc = locate(usr.x,usr.y-1,usr.z)
>               M.dir = NORTH


You probably want to loop through every mob/player/M or whatever you define your players as. Most people use /mob/player.

thanks for help with both =] time to get started =\

EDIT: A question with the first one about editing the interface My game doesn't use an interface so what would I edit? I don't know much about skins.

Oh, hrm... good question. You're using the default skin, so you can't expect everyone to edit their copy. Your best bet is probably to alter the style of the output in code when a player joins the game.

mob
    player
        Login()
            ..()
            if(client) // if a client has logged in
                // update their default output style
                src << winset("outputwindow.output", "style='.icon{width:32;}';")


That will update their skin like before, but only using code instead of having you do it manually through Dream Maker.

Oh, my bad. That's wronng. :P It should be:

mob
>   player
>       Login()
>           ..()
>           if(client)
>               winset(src,"outputwindow.output", "style='.icon{width:32;}';")

Ok, That compiles with out errors. But, when I tested it to see if it would work I got nothing =\ the icons are the same size

Ok, I should have tested this first. Seems it needs to be img.icon, not plain old .icon. Also, you'll have to define a height as well, or it will be squashed. This works for me:

mob
    icon = 'test.dmi'
    icon_state = "face"

    Login()
        ..()
        winset(src, "outputwindow.output", "style='img.icon{width:32;height:32;}';")

    verb
        say(msg as text|null)
            if(!msg) return
            world << "\icon[src] [src.name]:   [msg]"
