Half the width of an avatar, and just as tall.


<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">SJ, Is this for the SE by comitee forum? If so do you want it to be in the same style as those (48w X 32h)or do you want it to be different (24w X 48h as you mention above!)? Do you want a badge, or would you like a medal/ribbon type?

Cheers!

I think I've confused things, sorry.
By "badge", I meant more of an award-patch type thing, and not a new Job-Badge (like the minister, senator, etc ones you made earlier).

Tesco is still going to have the job-badge of "Armchair General" (or similar), but he will be given the explorer patch to add to his signature along with the ribbons, medallions and other awards he is sure to collect during his carreer.

I like it. It just needs the background transparent and a bit of a cropping to make it into a patch instead of a badge. Would a starry sky in the triangle show up at that size?

I don't recall if its already been done (and can't check from here), but the eyeball looks like a good idea for an intel minister badge. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

P.S. I'll see about a 'badge' for exploration. Maybe you'd like it to be a medal instead?

Re: OT: The House of 1001+ Avatars
 
..a few more medals and the 'explorer' medal tagged on the end! I hope they are to your liking.

Ooh! Very nice.

I've plugged in the Eye, and the PH, and this one:
http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048879194.gif(Given for extraordinary defense of something or someone important)

I'm thinking the crown ones would be good for ground combat related achievements. (They remind me of facilities for some reason http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif )

I'm not sure if you intended some of those to be used in a series, such as:

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048879248.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048879181.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048868404.gif

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048868253.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048868466.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/newup...1048868437.gif

Like a bronze, silver and gold Star/Cross/etc medal for varying degrees of achievement in some Category.

Those are some nice medals, David!

You did a great job retaining detail as well as no aliasing on the transparency.
