If you are looking for a further challenge, what the OOTP world really needs is this kind of program for caps. The game does a hideous job of creating caps with the team logo where a simple, single Capital letter would do.

With that in mind, a simple 'OOTP Haberdasher' program which would create a single color cap with a white or black letter selected from a list of, say Gothic (Detroit Tigers style), Western (like the Tx Rangers) and a simple block style (Gill, for example). then it should make the 'cap_New_York_Mets' filename.

That would solve my biggest gripe with the game's graphics.

Uniforms would be too hard, I think, because of the need for lettering, but some day.
I've been playing around with this and other than a font problem, it works pretty well.

The problem is with GDI+ graphics and non-truetype fonts (causes an exception that can't be handled and crashes the program). I don't know if I can get this working the way I want or if I should just release it with a warning. I have only come across 1 font that causes a problem so far, so it's not that bad.

So, does this look useful to anyone?

here's a peek at what I got ...
