Tips for Great DnD Tokens

  1. Select High-Quality Source Images
    • Use clear, high-contrast character portraits
    • Ensure images have good lighting and detail
    • Avoid cluttered backgrounds, or use transparent PNGs
  2. Border Selection Strategies
    • Choose elegant, ornate borders for player characters
    • Use simpler, more aggressive border designs for monsters and NPCs
    • Match border style to character personality (e.g., elegant borders for elves, rugged borders for orcs)
  3. Color Coordination Techniques
    • Use class-themed colors (blue for mages, red for warriors, white/gold for clerics)
    • Adjust opacity for subtle effects rather than overwhelming colors
    • Consider team color coding for quick identification
  4. Overlay Effect Best Practices
    • Use blood effects to indicate injured status
    • Add magical auras to represent buffs or spell effects
    • Use crack or corrosion effects to show curses or diseases
  5. Text Integration Suggestions
    • Keep text concise - use only names or key status indicators
    • Ensure text color contrasts sufficiently with the background
    • Adjust text size to be clearly readable but not intrusive
