https://perchance.org/tz4t341n8c#edit In this test generator, in the center, I have a select form which is just a pose list put into options. I have a lot of them in my main generator, and I want to make them a little be more user friendly and interactive, also bypassing language barrier, so I want to add pictures into the options instead( or in addition to words). That's what I did in the poseRadio list. I substituted radio label's background with pictures using CSS styles. I'm planning to have a second list of picture urls for each list, or I could create an array of URLs in the html part. Ideally, it should look like a dropdown with a picture and then the list item name next to it. And when selected, only the item name is stored in the variable without the picture. I'm not sure how to do that yet. Need your help combining select and input radio in some way, thanks!

You might want to have a look at the code of Imageconstructor by Koto. That generator has a nice solution. But, it's a lot of work too...

That's my generator I was asking help for :)

Shoot, LOL. I've been following your progress since version 4.0 or something. I like the way you are thinking and the solutions you have come up with. I've forked version 4.6b (so I'm far behind now), trying to build some responsive design into your generator. Been meaning to contact you as soon I have something worth looking at. I'ma retired software engineer and wanted a fun challenge...

I'm open to any ideas, of course.

Cool, I'll mail you a link to a demo somewhere in the next few days, once I have something stable.

Here's something I've cooked up: https://perchance.org/3on4b1h5qt

It uses functions to reselect the value on the 'select' if the 'image select' is changed and vice-versa. I've also changed a little bit of the CSS for the image dropdown.
