Version 1.6.0:

**Additions**
- New illustration types:
- `blabber:fake_player` draws a (potentially offline) player with custom data
- `blabber:texture` draws a 2D texture from a resourcepack
- New anchor system for illustrations: you do not have to draw everything relative to the top-left corner anymore, you can pick any corner plus a couple predefined "good spots" for illustrations
- use the `/blabber settings set debug.anchors <true|false>` command to toggle the illustration anchor debug mode, which displays the coordinates of the cursor relative to every available anchor
- Added the `scale` property for item illustrations (defaults to `1.0`)
- Limitation: durability bars and stack count indicators do not render when a custom scale is set
- API: Added an experimental API for custom parameterized dialogue layouts
- Added customization options for dialogue layouts
- Currently, the only configuration available is `main_text_margins` on the RPG layout
- Added Mexican Spanish localization (thanks TheLegendofSaram !)

**Changes**
- The format of entity illustrations has changed
- They now use `x`/`y`/`width`/`height` properties instead of `x1`/`y1`/`x2`/`y2` to bring them in line with other illustrations
- `size` has been renamed to `entity_size`
- `stare_at_x`/`stare_at_y` properties have been moved to a `stare_at` object, which can optionally take an `anchor`
- Illustrations in the old format should keep working, but only the new format will be actively supported going forward
- Illustration deserialization error messages have been improved slightly
- Blabber will now log a warning with some additional details when it detects that a player gets stuck without available choices
- API: `DialogueIllustration#parseText` can now throw `CommandSyntaxException`
- API: the mod is now compatible with split sourceset environments
- The experimental illustration API has been consequently reworked

**Mod Interactions**
- JEI no longer appears on the dialogue screen
