Fantastic! Is this something that you'll be able to host indefinitely, or is there a chance that in a year or so that this page will disappear? Would you be interested in hosting that page on TacticalGamer webspace?

Oh, and I updated Xink's orginal post so that the url to Morg's page is difficult to miss...

Oh, just now saw some updates to this thread. With the pictures organized I should be able to update the script easily. Probably sometime this weekend.

A template of some sort would be nice to help people make new ones.. Just some blank images of the proper size with the borders with an empty center.

I plan to host it indefinitely but if you like we could move it to the TG webspace to keep the coroporate identity on the links

Cool sig, the font works well.

I see youve got my C4 sig.. cool

I realy do need to get that black border line on it, can someone help me out on just how to do that?? I cant seem to make a line smaller than 1 pixel.

**WhiskeySix** · 10-21-2005, 01:31 PM

select-all
shrink selection by 2 px
invert selection (2px border now selected)
paint white

select-all
shrink selection by 1 px
invert selection (1px border now selected)
paint black

Thanks for seeking feedback, guys. I'm a perfectionist, and like to "help" others reach those standards.

Whiskey:
1. Is that AT rocket pic from in-game?
2. It looks to be 1 pixel not high enough.
3. Yes, the lettering is way off. The font was posted in this thread. Check thru it and download. I ended up doing all my lettering by hand.
4. Otherwise, it's a cool idea. Fix those issues, and you will have a really cool pic.

Sinister:
1. The black line border is 1 pixel. Not less. There is no way to make a <1 pixel line.

2. Your C4 pic looks to be 1 pixel too high.

Thanks for the help!! To me the black line looks thinner than the white one.

Anywayz, heres the final version.

Hope you like.

**Phantom** · 10-21-2005, 02:17 PM

The black line looking thinner is just your eyes playing tricks on you. If the black line was on the inside and the white line was on the outside then the white line would look thinner.

**SinisteR_NL** · 10-21-2005, 02:19 PM

Oh no... the thingy on the left is now out of place... gotta fix that.

There... done.

**WhiskeySix** · 10-21-2005, 03:16 PM

ok, now she's done... hahaha there's 2 hours of my life i'll never get back! ah well...

**SaladFork** · 10-21-2005, 03:41 PM

An easier way to make the border is to select all, go to Edit -> Stroke, make a 2 px white one, and then Edit -> Stroke, and chose a 1 px black one.

ya thats what i did for all of mine. too bad i havent gotten a chance to see all of my screenshots yet....

**SaladFork** · 10-21-2005, 03:56 PM

Finally managed to find the post where the font is mentioned. Updated by helicopter sig so it uses that font. Feel free to add it to the list, =)
