Yeah I know =P

Those look great!

Can't wait for Monday when they'll all be new, shiny and complete...

Thank you very much!

Also, I think the Combined EI logo is... not right!

You sir obviously don't know what you are talking about =P

Not sure if serious...

Isn't it supposed to look like this:

?

Ah... the clever use of the "EDIT" feature...!

Got it!

Fantastic stuff! I think a round of applause is in order!

Btw, sorry if i haven't been around much, RL is damn busy right now. If anyone needs me i try and check my pms regularly.

Now we just need Yakface to say I didn't do this for nothing =P

I'm sure it wasn't - they rock!

(Can't wait for the updated Yu-Jing and Haqqislam ones - and remember, if nothing else, they all look great in my signature!)

Good thing then =)

Skyfury, they're perfect now, imo!

With the exception of the Yu Jing and Haqq ones with the background (I would just edit your above post when you do them tomorrow).

Fantastic, thank you so much

Where's the Exrah and/or EI and/or Combined icons in your sig then, huh?

That's gratitude for ya!

I still have to redo my whole "look" to be infinity . Just haven't gotten to it yet

I promise they'll be in there once I do! (this weekend, likely)

Pngs can work instead of gifs, they just need to be compressed down to the 500-1,000 byte range (0.5-1 kbs), whreas right now the ones you've done look to be around 3.3 kbs. If you're able to do the compression then they would work fine.

However, when I 'save as' these pngs, am I crazy or are these files coming up as 20x14 pixels (because that's what I'm seeing)? There seems to be a bunch of 'dead' space horizontally on the right side of each logo.

No reason as to why there is such wasted spaces (I took these from their website so...)
I'll remove these wasted spaces as well as the backgrounds tomorrow.
Then I'll see what I can do to reduce the size of these

Space issues are now fixed for most of all.
The logos that needed the background to be removed were a little problematic and that is why they are not as clean as the others. They are also bigger for some reasons.
Haqqislam ones are the one I'm the less proud =(
If somebody could sharpen these up, that would be awesome.

How's this?









Not sure how many do mercenaries but thought I'd to that too.


@VS: are you a graphic artist too?

Looks good, although I think the "rising sun" one looks cut off on the edge (maybe it had to be to fit in space requirements).

Also, not regarding the border, but the actual lines in the center, is this as sharp as the EI one can get, or is there some magic you have, CDK?


Thanks for doing this, VS and CDK!

CDK wrote:

Nope, just some guy who got his hands on Photoshop =)

Yeah, the new versions look great and seem to be the right size now (although they're 14x14 pixels strangely, but I can change that myself making them 15x15) and the file size is in the right ballpark to not negatively affect our server, so I think all should be good.

Can someone put all of the final versions together into a single post (even if its just editing them into a previous post)? Since I don't personally play Infinity I don't want to accidentally miss one because they happen to be spread out between two or more posts.


Thanks guys!

Alright I thik thats all of them there for you yak.

Thanks!

But I need to know what those top 7 symbols are!


Edit: Or more specifically, I need super-compact 'names' for each symbol.

For example if you look at the ubb code for something like this:



You'll see it actually looks like this:

:nightlord2:


We use the 'name' of the symbol as the thing you have to type (or rather the text that automatically gets added to your post when you click on the symbol in the emoticons section) when you want to add that symbol to your post.

So for these symbols, I need compacted single-word 'names' for each one and I figure its better to have them accurately descriptive rather than just making them 'infinity1', 'infinity2', etc.

So if you can edit a compacted name for each symbol, I would really appreciate it and we'd be about ready to go!

Will those work now or do you want them shorter?

Commisar Wolfie wrote:Will those work now or do you want them shorter?

Those look perfect! Although what does El stand for?

And also, what is the deal with the 'special demands' anyway? Is just naming those 'jotum' 'el' and 'exrah' on their own make sense?

And why are there two different symbols called 'Mercenaries'?

El is the actual name for that symbol. I think it's some kinda super AI but I could be wrong on that front.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
the special demand ones were requested by individuals. They do make sense by what they are called because they represent indivual units or another subfaction not yet made into a sectorial list. I missed the two seperate Mercenaries. They both are the same symbol so go with which ever look/works the best.

There was a typo
It is Haqqislam

Ya sorry about that i must have hit the wrong key.

EI is capitalised, so it's "Echo India", not "Echo Lima"*. It stands for "Evolved Intelligence". But that's perhaps a bit long, so it could be shortened to evoint or something.

*Of all the things I learnt in Army Cadets, the NATO Phonetic Alphabet is up there as one as the most useful. Not so much in text, but in speech, very much so.

The "special demands" were just requests people made since those are categories of models likely to be made into sectorial lists soon. Kind of like "flesh tearers" instead of just "blood angels" to relate it to 40k

Here is the list with only one mercenaries logo, and the typo fixed:
