hmmm? what do the cows replace?
and i think it would be a better idea to have them as a farm locality, like crops, and moving, just at random times loading a different sprite, try drawing about 4 different types with more and less cows :wink: and maybe draw Murray Grey's (goldie brown colour), that way they don't look so bold, or just use a softer (darker) white :)

That would be great, but if you build a railway this could become a new disaster. Train hitting cow! :)

I say that it is quite fine, I reccomend you to keep working on it, AE. It could fit well also in the new industrial stations for the livestock loading area

BTW: Since when did cows have zebra print? I never seen a white cow, and iv'e been on a lot of farms (Practice every 2nd week)

Their'e black with twhite dots, or brown with white dots. You get special cows whom are white, but black and brown ones are the usual.

Zebra's have stripes not splotches.

Well just because you haven't ever seen one doesn't mean they don't exist.

Invisible cows? I never seen those before :lol: . The topic title made me think of the Southpark episode where the cows steal the wooden cow statue and commit mass suicide. Perhaps you can use a more descriptive title, AE.

The graphic looks really fine! And I must say, it's a very original idea... very nice! :D

The pic is really fine, if you find a coder to add it to the game, I think you can add animation, or gradual cycling of different graphics (as trees do)
One advice: don't use that pink color, it's somehow hard to explain, but look at the beginning of the Graphics thread, there is a stickky about the palette in TTD and you'll understand what I mean.
