Drink Umbrellas as Hats

I have zero art skills. :|

"Sucking at something is the first step to being sorta good at something."

People in this forum and wherever have said that that having a sprite for your idea goes a long way to getting it actually implemented. That is 100% true; adding a new item on the head slot for this sort of item is trivial. But the real effort in a post like this comes from the idea/sprite. You're halfway there basically.

It seems daunting if you haven't done it before, but most things do, and once you do them they seem far easier than you'd expect. Just download dreammaker from byond.com, download the goonstation source and open it up dreammaker. Two downloads and you're already well on your way to getting this going. Another thing to remember concerning "art", is this: "good artists create, great artists steal". You don't have to create it from scratch in a blank paint or dmi file, search google. 


I like the idea enough to make a patch for umbrellas or flowers/whatever if I had a sprite for it made up for me. Its simple programmatically, it adds something creative and fun, and I didn't even have to think up the idea. In fact, if you make a sprite, I will definitely make a patch for this if you want.
