I think I'll import the character model, and make a few other changes and just completely render it like I originally planned. It's been a pain in the bum to implement for just my 3-4 resolutions so I'll probably scrap it all together. I did have a couple more ideas, but this was really just to burn some time while my internet was down.
Thanks for feedback, cheers,

Edit #1.1.0003 build 20:
Here's something I planned on doing with this.. I want to replace the small map screenies with "quick join" buttons for every major pub #1 server (OTB/GT/EV1/ etc) Is this feasible?
