I convert all your pngs to .webp for use in foundry; same with maps. It's makes a huge difference. The plug-in I have for Photoshop defaults to 75% (which I use), though others often choose 80%. I use this plugin for Photoshop: https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/webpshop

There is an addon you can add to Photoshop that I use and it works wonderfully!

Devin Night

I will. I looked and making WEBP isn't easy yet. Adobe doesn't have a built in exporter for that format yet.

Tosari

There are widely used VTT platforms that can not use WEBP, so please keep both formats if you add WEBP!

Poll: Harengon and Owlin (there are like none available!)

Foundry Virtual Tabletop

It's an awesome technology, but I would certainly encourage you to continue providing PNG as well because they are lossless (perfect quality) and they will work on all platforms where some might not support WEBP. Feel free to ping me on Discord if you want some tips on automating WEBP conversion.

I will have to look into this. I have never saved to WebP but if it makes the files that much smaller it would be worth it.

I love the "extra high" resolution tokens. I definitely don't think they are excessive. For example, most battlemaps I make are 200 pixels per grid space, so a huge Frost Giant that occupies a 3x3 area is going to be natively 600px square which is what you have provided here. Anything lower res than that is going to need to be upscaled at native zoom. TL;DR keep the "xhi" coming! Furthermore, for anyone using these tokens in Foundry VTT, I strongly recommend webp conversion. The folder of xhi tokens is 9.35MB as PNG (around 250kb per token) but only 1.5MB as WEBP (around 35kb per token).

Heroic Maps

For the poll, could I suggest NPC/Civilians for non-human races? Civilian dwaves, elves, goblins etc, to populate settlements. Would be very useful I think

Heroic Maps

These are really fantastic tokens, Devin!

I'll add skeleton and zombie monsters/animals to the poll

RE poll ideas, how about animal or monster skeletons and zombies? There are never enough of those. Another thing you could do is what you did here -- include an occasional zombie or skeleton in the lineup.
