- Text size cannot be changed. You can make it bold and uppercase to make it look bigger.
- Floating items inside holograms will constantly rotate and bob up and down.

Oh ok. Thank you!
well if you want an image you need the mcedit thingie :/
Genius. Just. Genius. No other words. :)
@CC3475 Thanks man! :)
@Glitchx0R Maybe in the future, but what's the use of that? You can have multiple lines, longer than 200 chars...
@TheFluffyPanda If you have got the new version, look in the changelog.
@lecraeman It's against the bukkit rules.
@R6Nick The entities are actually placed 54 blocks above the hologram (the video explains everything), so put a light source 54 blocks above ;)
@Coolboy12327 You aren't supposed to use Mcedit, use the plugin!
@Roissica I will add that. However you should use a text file, rather than modifying the database.
really great ! can you add this command /hd reload to reload database.yml ? please?
I am having some issues with the mcedit thingie if i filter it, it says "PNG file has invalid signature!" can some 1 help me :o thx :D
@ZackBlazes
simple, use colours of essentials http://ess.khhq.net/mc/ before that you character!
@R6Nick
Having this issue too! Even putting light sources under them does not help :(
Are the displays supposed to get darker when it's night time? I don't really like this because you can't really read it. May you keep it lighted the whole time? Thanks. -Nick
Hello, may i please ask if you can give me a tutorial or please make on on how to add images to a server as a holographic display, really want to use it on our server!
@filoghost
You should give us a link ;)
How do you add color to a hologram?
@filoghost
@filoghost
but if you want to make just a little text like scrolling text? not big pictures? ;/
@CC3475
same here!
filoghost, you are my favorite bukkit developer. I love your work, I will be donating soon :)
Image support...now! Submitted v1.2!
@spacerocket Thanks! I'm happy that you told me :)
Amazing work! It seems as others like to point out bugs and stuph, so I'll just point out a typo. When typing in an invaild argument, I think you mean "Unknown" and not "Unkown" :P
(sorry, I felt obligated to say that http://puu.sh/7hQe5.png, good job!)
eerrrg, now I feel bad for pointing that out because I know the pain of listening to people criticize the code that you released for free...
For when the 1.6.4 version ? (is this even possible ?)
please reply to my post idk what to do please HELP!!! my post is 7 posts down read it please
@filoghost
Will it support transparent images?
