These are a set of very simple text-boxes that I created while fooling around with photoshop (-insert nervous laugh-)
Designed for 800x600 pixel screen.
Terms of Use
1. Credit- Sayumi101
2. Absolutely free in any kind of project or to make any sort of modification.
3. Also if you do use them it'd be nice if you could let me know the name of your project so that I can play the game once it's released ^^
4. You can alter the colours any way you want.... (for photoshop CS: click Image--->Adjustments-->Hue/Saturation... Then vary the hue arrow, the colour can be altered) For other programs I'm not quite sure how you can achieve that.
If you have any trouble with regards to changing the colour, just PM me an approximate shade you want and I'd be happy to make the conversion for you!~
Comments, Critiques and Opinions would be much appreciated.
Happy Game Creating!

Ren'py Button Set
I haven't really got used to creating genuine GUI yet. But for now, here's a random set of buttons that can replace the widgets so they don't look bland and boring. The code to use them is also included within the file.

I'm glad you liked them. ^^


New Arrivals

I like how simple and understated these are. Thanks for sharing, Sayumi.

Wow, these are great. Totally bookmarked this page. Hope you make more, these are very stylish.

Ah, I'm really thankful for the feedback. It's uplifting that they actually look okay to people. ^^
Once I get used to photoshop, I'm considering on trying to make stuff enclosed in actual neat-looking frames. But that seems a long way off as of now. XD

Wow, these are really pretty. I'd use a set if it matched the game I'm making. lol

^ I'm glad you like them. ^^ Good luck on your project, the premise looks very interesting.


For now I'm considering to make quick menu buttons to go with the boxes. I'll see how that goes. ^^;

Thanks. c:

Also do you know where to find instructions on how to align the text with the text box?

I found information on how to change the dialog box but I couldn't figure out how to move the text so that it fit in the new box without moving all other objects too.

Or could you tell me how?

I don't need to know for this game since I decided I like the default text box but it could be useful if I make another game.

I'm relatively new to this so I don't know if there's a simpler way to do it. What I normally do is open the options.rpy page and play around with these values until I get the text to not overlap with my buttons and so that it sits neatly within the text box. Now I only hope that this was what you mean >O<


style.window.left_padding = 170
style.window.right_padding = 44
style.window.top_padding = 8
style.window.bottom_padding = 30

I didn't test your numbers but took a look at my options menu and that looks like it makes sense. Thanks. c:

@iamwhatonearth: Don't mention it ^^


Update
Added two more text boxes.
1. Orange bordered.
2. Red bordered (zip file) (with buttons, code and preview)

(Golly I'm going on a text-box creation frenzy even though I'm an utter noob >.< Gotta try GUI! :determined: )

Update:
(Two more Boxes)
1. Yellow bordered novel mode box.
2. Red and Green Starry box which hopefully has a light Christmass-y feel to it ^^;

Comments and opinions would be much appreciated ^^

These textboxes are so kawaii. *^* Do you take requests?

Aw, thank you so much.
And I do, actually. Though I kind of won't be able to work on anything for another week or three.
