<ding> Your avatar's done..

[WhiskeySix]

<phew> ok... just finished updating the patches...

Because Internet Explorer sucks and only partially supports .PNGs, your old avatars are now gone. Instead, you'll find shiney new .GIF's:

please let me know if I spelled or capitalized anything incorrectly.... it litterally takes 17-20 seconds to update the text in each image...

Thanks so much, ill upload this now. I know what you mean about sucky IE, if everyone used Firefox id find website images transparency no problem. Hopefully when IE7 comes out with Vista it will be fully supported.

Thanks for the great pic.

[S.a.M.]

Thank you very much Whiskey, these are very cool.

It's been ages since i stopped using IE btw, it sucks big time.

[Shafik]

Bloody good job mate. The text looks fnatastic and everything looks really polished and pro(in the non prostitute sense). Thanks!

[March4Revenge]

Thanks Whiskey, these look the mutt's nuts.
Nice Job

[TG_JBRanger]

Very Nice!

[WhiskeySix]

thanks guys...

I had another thought - whadya think about replacing the full name on the patch with our nicknames? Like what we'd like to be called ingame? Seems kinda redundant to have the name below the patch be exactly what's above it... but it might be cool to have the shortened or alternate ingame name on the patch...

Like in game, you can just call me "whiskey"... In fact, some of us already have nicknames on the patch... "Kemo" instead of Kemosabe, "Bleak" instead of the thebleakaffinity, etc...

thoughts?

There's another column in the roster - please add your nickname to it:

http://www.tacticalwiki.com/index.ph...er&action=edit


(To edit, you'll need to login to the tacticalwiki site - takes 2 seconds to register if you haven't yet).

Scroll down until you find your name in the edit box, and then, to the right of your name, add the nickname (in quotation marks). It should look something like this (leave blank the columns you want blank):

{{Roster SM|WhiskeySix|"Whiskey"|SL|Helo Pilot & Gunner}}

I think the nickname idea is a good one, makes it easier to get across who you are talking to, Instead of saying "JimmyTwoHand", shorten to "Jimmy", I like the idea, it gets my vote. By the way, love the new patches, very well done!!
