[rp]Skies, ek is jammer. Maar miskien kan ons iemand van die "Janitorial Fleet" vind om dit te doen. We are officers after all. Sir with all due respect you are acting irrationally, We are officers, not janitors.[/rp] you been sniffing medpaks again?

Aaaargh!! hmmmmm... the centaur works (but theres two).

but i'll break out!! (afrikaans actually ) [ 11-15-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ]

I would but I'm alergic to detergent (baie jammer miskien 'n ander tyd!)

[rp] S.C.U.M reporting for duty, SIR![rp] (Super Crafty Uber Mechanic) ok, ok i tried, never mind.

[rp] I used to be in another fleet (ok not really, but this is rp ), and after fighting for the freedom of the galaxy against the gammulans all I got was a lousy T-shirt! don't let that happen to you! join the ISS, the fleet with great ships, great laughs and great friends. Be part a team, THE team, the ISS. Join now and get an autographed wing logo free! [/rp] okay i know the autographed logo is gimmicky but at least it's something I can actually give away!

jeez guys, thanks a lot. I'm really touched that you want to make me a wing leader, I'm honoured! I've optimised the centaur logo a bit, I agree that it looked a little low res, here it is: If you dont mind GD, could you "gif" it for me? I did it jpg so it would be seen better (and for longer than 2.5 seconds!)

okay the latest logos are on the top of the page (first post) sorry GD I only saw your request for the jpg now, i'll post them like that in future. please feel free to change the race/alliance logo's in my logos, my request (in the first post) was only really for the parts that I've made. hope you like the new ones! -RVS- ps: GD, I asked ('bout the inet conection) 'cos I've got a 56k modem at home and was wondering bout how other internationals were gonna manage. If I play at work I can get 64k (lease line) but I still think that wont cut it. I'll just have to focus more on rp I guess. [ 11-14-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ]

thanks Urza, i'm glad to see my work is appreciated!

Right, I've redone the background on the centaur (i think it's much better) with a new star and starfield and reworked the unicorn. I changed the colour to an almost white. (theres a tiny bit of red in it) and removed the sunburst. I found a nice star graphic/symbol that i think looks great with the unicorn so i used that instead of a planet (although i've got a few planets. btw what colour is Omicron Eridani?) and I like it. I'll post them tomorrow. oh I've also removed the "wing" as requested. I think they've come out great even if i do say so myself! quote: Do you have the BCM demo? I'm not sure if there's a mineral world in the demo that you could use a screenshot of (I can't run the demo myself). What paint program do you use? got the demo, (though i'll have to reinstall it) but as i've said i found some nice planet graphics. as for my tools, paintshop pro 5 and animation shop. yeah yeah i know they're old but they work. a little off topic but something that i've been wondering, I see you are in Oz, what internet connection do you have? With the fleet servers in the States are you concerned about performance in mp? that goes for other international members too.

Thanks a lot, I apreciate the praise and i will take those suggestions into consideration. the reason the stars look a little off is because i had to make them! (with a paintbrush tool) I'll use that texture and see what i come up with. do you have a pic in mind for the planet? is there a pic in the manual i could maybe use? I wasn't so sure bout the sunburst so I will change it.

[rp] I thought I had a problem with gamms but my co-commander takes the cake! I used to love these arguments and got caught up in them myself. But when it comes to gamms my IOD's do the arguing now.[/rp]

Ok there are a few threads at the mo' on this topic so I'm making a new one where we can discuss all the wings logos. (easier than monitering three threads! ) right I've done some more work on the defence wing logos and changed the destrier and pegasus slightly so that they are uniform. . the font I used was serpentine so you can change that on your logo if you like. Gareth, I've mailed the new ones to you. My only request is if anyone wants to change my logo's or whatever to please let me know first or let me do it myself. They're my works so I hope you understand. Right lets get the ideas flowing! -RVS- ps: Jerold please mail me any logos you want hosted. [ 11-13-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ]

[rp] Reiner, logo designer extrordanaire![rp] lol i've got a big head now, i spent a lot of time on them so i'm very glad you like them. i'll mail them to you tomorrow. which address should I use?

If you're looking for a great fleet, try the ISS. http://issfleet.iwarp.com/

[rp] The ISS stands together, you take on one, you take on all. a piece of jaguars stormcarrier would look great on the mess wall don't you think? [/rp]

test

) -RVS-

I have made a new destrier wing logo I think this one better shows what a destrier is. comments? -RVS- ps: i've also made a pegasus wing image which i've posted on the "pegasus wing news" thread [ 11-12-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ]

those e-mails (from the fans) must make all the shit worth it.

LOL!! you tell 'em SC! I don't envy you at all, having to put up with trash like that. Well actually you don't, looking at the reply you sent him! Up BCM, Down the detractors!

quote: Nova only has so much space to keep all his stuff, it wouldn't be fair if he had to host our stuff too? would it? well he did offer didn't he? i'm sure if it would be a prob for him he'd say so.

ouch! the banners and popup ads are hurting my head! can't we pleeeease host with Nova? I know i'm new and stuff and don't have much (if any) pull in the fleet, but it makes sense! He is free, no popups and as far as I can see it does frames fine. just my humble honest opinion. Sorry to throw a spanner in the works!! [ 11-09-2001: Message edited by: buckthesystem ]

'k i found a great pegasus image so i'll start working on it. hopefully it'll be done by monday but i'm not making any promises! i'll post it here when it's done.
