That's definitely why it's indented. The textbox itself is also temporary. I prefer the indentation so you can see more of the portrait (which is tough to make out in that dark setting), but I actually like the simple dark box for text as well. Maybe I ought to remove the indentation.
edit:
Does the indentation look less "off" in the light?

Yeah, I don't know how dark I actually want this. To have bright lights and a bright panorama, we have to actually color the tileset and characters, which is pretty tedious to keep altering.
When this is actually in motion, they're pretty easy to pick out, and I love the contrast between the moon and the tiles, but I suspect it's still too dark. It looks worse than it is in screenshots, though.

REBIRTH OF REFMAP. I like.
Speaking of which, here's some good old fashioned REFMAP for Rise of the Third Power along with a portrait for one of our adorable little thiefy protagonists. The expressions are all done, just not colored. I was worried the image wouldn't do well resized so small, but I think it actually came out great.

[RM2K3] only upper half of custom tileset shows ?
I downloaded the image and imported it myself and it works correctly for me.
What is the issue exactly? Only the upper half shows up at what point?

Huh. I feel like I'm not following your train of thought here, Kentona.
What I'm piecing together here is that you're saying people that like innovative games can't share their opinions without accidentally disparaging people, and if they want to avoid that, they're forced to be quiet.
Do I have that right, or is there some other point being made that I'm not getting?

By "you" I meant in the general sense, like "one." "One ought not shy away from..."
But if one is looking for a way to sound snobby, one ought to use "one" whenever one is able.

@Kentona Aw, come on, seeking out "inspired" and "innovative" works only risks turning you into a snob if you were kind of a douche to begin with. I don't know if this is what you meant to imply, but you certainly shouldn't shy away from looking for that sort of thing just because you're afraid it might turn you into a snob.

Well, I just wanted to chime in to say that I generally agree that jRPGs actually kind of suck, and they've been improved upon immensely since the "good old days."
But Chrono Trigger holds up pretty damn well, if you ask me, and is absolutely worth playing as a case study in how to do a jRPG correctly.
