Charged Spell System v.01.w3x

So here it is. I've gone about as far as I can with this. It's not MUI and it is hard coded, but it works and it's pretty neat. If anyone wants it or has any use for it, please feel free to make it your own. Also, if anyone is serious about using it, I would be happy to make additional numbered icons.

You gave me an idea. Thank you. I forgot that I have this tutorial: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/trigger-gui-editor-tutorials-279/charged-ability-tutorial-220584/

I really like this. I've been looking for a good way to do an ability that gains charges and once used deals damage according to the number of charges. It's a simple spell, but having an icon that shows the charges would be ideal.

I'll have to get back to you to see if you can make me an icon with 0 to 10 charges (so 11 icons I guess) If you would be up for that I would certainly appreciate it.

my vJass lib can handle up to 2^31 charges and it is MUI

I appreciate that, but I just need something simple. I'm looking for the icons more than the code. Plus I have run into problems with vJass with campaigns.
