Rollable Tables Question

What's up community! I've never really used the rollable tables function of Roll20 and I'm trying it out. Is there any way to make the output a little more aesthetically pleasing? Here's what shows up in the chat right now: I originally had an image for each entry, but they were too small in the chat output and I didn't like that you had to hover over the tiny image to see a tooltip pop-up. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

If you want it too be pretty, you can set it up as a macro for the roll table. Basically an inline roll: [[1t[Critical-Hits]]] You will get the nice yellow box around the text with nothing else.

For some things I just use a Deck of Cards. You can accomplish the "weighting" by adding in multiples of the different cards and making the deck infinite. With a deck you can set the size of the image when played to the desk top. Or you could write an API script so the output can be formatted using HTML. :)
Why not just create a card deck with the information on each card, like the Paizo Critical Hit or Critical Miss decks.

I am using card decks for fumbles and possibly something I'm trying with Hero Points. I'm trying to put together a little "sampler" of Roll20's various functions, so I want to try to use a little bit of everything. I'm fine tuning my GMing methods in the VTT environment, so I have to try out this and that. Thanks for the suggestions!

I don't need it all styled and such enough to get into an API script, just something to make it a little less jumbled looking. Thanks Jon!

Ooooo! What's this? :) EDIT: Thanks Levis! I haven't read it all yet, but if it has to do with HB's Power Card script I'm sure it looks good!

It shouldn't look any different than it would if you just put the table inline in HB's powercard script. That addition was to allow indexing into the table with bonuses and reporting the number used. Still might be useful though. =D
