I'm very good with Coldstone, I just don't know how to add graphics!

Hi IcyDragon. Welcome to the boards. A lot of the graphics for PoG and other art work is included with Coldstone in the folder called Art Lib. You have to move (or duplicate) the pictures you want into the Pictures folder of the game or plugin you are working on.
If you add new graphics, I find it works best for me to save from the graphic software in .pct format. Just drop it in the picture folder and it becomes available in the game or plugin.
If this doesn't answer your question, please explain just what you don't know about adding graphics. ~RD

You can also save in png format if you want a smaller file size with transparency.

It's probably because you don't have the registered version yet.......

Not so. Although it's not called Art Lib on the demo version. I just downloaded a Coldstone Demo because I was sure that most of the graphics came with it. You do get a few more when you receive the CD but the demo has 21.3 MB of pictures found by this route: AddOns -> Wizards -> Medieval -> Pictures.
IcyDragon - When you are constructing an item (to give just one example), on the display tab of the item editor there is a gray button with three dots on it to the right of where the picture should appear ( . . . ). Click on this and you will get to select which picture you want to use. Most are nestled in folders indicating their usual function.
Those are in every "Medival" base game. I meant from Pillars Of Garendall, which has more graphics.
You need to register to get those graphics. Which reminds me. How long does it take for the CS CD to arrive?

Which graphics are you wanting? Beenox / Ambrosia have said that some PoG graphics would not be made available because they want some parts of their game to be unique. To lift them out of the game to use somewhere else would be stealing someone else's property. If you want a "Guardian" or a "Sea Giant" you will have to draw your own.
