Adding a feature with new Art

If you're adding a new feature that requires a new sprite but don't want to spend the time/effort to make a game-quality sprite that's fine. Not all of us like doing art. You can put in a placeholder for now - the name of the furniture on a grey background is perfectly adequate. Prefix the image with ph_ to signal to others that it's a stand-in and they should feel free to replace it.

So if you don't want to make the sprites yourself please prefix the image file-name with "ph_" so if you have a new feature with a new sprite named awesome_new_feature.png and you want someone else to make new art the file should be prefixed by "ph_" making it ph_awesome_new_feature.png.
