The current loop goes on each dot. And then the field lines come out of the dot adding coherently in the center.

Just a sketch on top of yours to make sure I have it straight, before I clean it up...

Hey Schmawy,

Here is what I need, see what you can do.

Draw four octagons as I have drawn them. Then add a circular line to indicate a current(a 3/4 circle with an arrow on one end).

If the current goes clockwise then it produces a magnetic field that is oriented down(so S to N), counter clockwise it goes the other way.(I would prefer ccw) I need them to draw one arrow pointing out of octagons.

These little dots are essentially little bar magnets, and I want to indicate that they add coherently in a specific place. Namely the little square in the middle. The next thing to add is some magnetic field lines, i.e. loops, but oriented them from the top view so they look like 'x's. In this way it will become clear that the center part they are all adding together.

The final step is to make a big arrow pointing down (if the currents are ccw). This would signify them adding. Make this arrow a different color.
