PictureThis

Version: 2.7

by: Yukyuk [More]

PictureThis
PictureThis makes it easy to create (character) wallpapers.

A while ago I discovered the addon Wallpaper_Kit.
But I missed a way to easily set options.
And so PictureThis was born.

Credits
Credits go to Saxitoxin, the author of Wallpaper_Kit.
Wallpaper_Kit is the basis of PictureThis (he kindly allowed me to use his code).
And Credits go to ZORK, large parts of Wallpaper_Kit are based on his code.

Customizable

Background. Choose from the class color, 12 predefined colors or make your own color (version 2.4).

Character text.

Aura. Select from 18 aura's (version 2.7).

Class icon.

Faction icon.

Mount. Select your summoned mount or choose from almost 600 other mounts (version 2.5).

Character.

Pet.

Battle pet. Select your summoned battlepet or choose from almost 900 other battlepets (version 2.3).

Follower (Warlords of Draenor)/(Broken Isles version 2.2).

Questions and answers
Question: Why is the battlepet drawn over the chararcter?
Answer: Look at PictureThis as a painting. First the background is painted, with the text, aura, class and faction icon.
In the following order, the mount, character, the pet and finally the battle pet are painted.
So the battle pet will always be on top.

How to use
PictureThis can be used through the use of a minimap button or through a LDB button.
Select the options you want to use (there is a preview window), and once you are satisfied, push the PictureThis button.
Then use the Print Screen button to save your wallpaper.
The wallpaper will be saved in your World of Warcraft / screenshots folder.

To go back to your normal window, go to the TOP RIGHT of the screen and click the exit button that appears.
Or you can use the /pt (or /picturethis) command to go back to the normal window.

A little warning, PictureThis is only tested on my PC with my screen width and resolution. Results may vary.

Version 2.7
- Added the choice to select from 18 aura's.

Version 2.6
- Updated the TOC for BfA.

Version 2.5.1
- Corrected an error that prevented the battle pet scroll window from scrolling.

Version 2.5
- Added the choice to select from almost 600 Mounts.
Choose your summoned mount or select the one you want.

Version 2.4
- Adjustable background color.
Choose from the class color, 12 predefined colors or make your own color.

Version 2.3
- Added the choice to select from almost 900 battlepets.
Choose your summoned battlepet or select the one you want.
Some of the battlepets need to be selected twice before they show.

Version 2.2
- Added Broken Isles followers.
I can only find and display the followers I have gathered.
So i made a little addon called Scan Folowers Broken Isles found here on WowInterface.
Folow the instructions there if you want any other followers included in PictureThis.

Version 2.1
- Added the "Warlords of Dreanor" horde ships to the followers.
- Added three chests (horde, alliance and neuutral) to the followers.

Version 2.0
- Updated to Legion.

Version 1.4
- Added followers to PictureThis.

Version 1.3
- Adjustable Aura size and color.

Version 1.2
- Small bugfix, handling of minimap botton was incorrect.

Version 1.1
- Added menu butoon for faster selection.
- Added mount.
- Added battlepet.
- Added light effects.
- More options for class icon.
- More options for faction icon.

I'm considering putting it on ice for the time being (lacking skills to make it look like I want the easiest way possible)

Code:

Some things I have added already to my version
  - Add blendmode to the aura
  - Added a button that lets me take a picture right away instead of doing it manualy
  - is using the class color on the BG as a overlay so I can use a darker classcolor instead by setting a grey BG and the transparacy on the overlay to a low value
  - Set different backgrounds

things I plan on adding
  - a draw/sheath weapon button
  - animations to the model
  - make the shading sizeable also
  - move the light around
  - more auras hint: warrior
  - more BG's (I have added the two from the "New Quest Frame" addon

Nice catch.

Added a bugfix.
Should work correctly now.

tednik An Aku'mai Servant Forum posts: 33 File comments: 51 Uploads: 2	I love the addon. One thing I would suggest is with the text add an option to remove just the rank,guild and server and just have the name and title other than that great job!

The option to just see only the name and title is allready there. Just check the check box name and title in the text options and there it is Yukyuk __________________ Better to fail then never have tried at all.
