The NZA Posted August 22, 2002 Posted August 22, 2002 Attention Senate members & those soon to be (SOF!): First off, congrats again, and thanks for bein a large part of why this board's so great, even Jack's, kind of. Thing is...our good buddy MyLeakyBucket was the first one to make Senate, and so he picked the icon to use in place of blue blocks (back then it was stars...you get the idea). So, now everyone in the Senate has this under their name. I always wanted to give Senate mambers the added bonus of havin the option to put whatever small .gif picture they wanted for personalized ranking & alla that, but couldnt 'cause the Senate's one group & therefore gets one icon. But...Yahven had this great idea, to appoint positions in the Senate. For instance, when SOF makes it, he could be "The Senate - Hitman" or somethin like that, and we could use targets or whatever he'd prefer. Get the idea? I think its pretty cool, just lemme know what position you'd like & what .gif file to have down there, the smaller the better i guess, but we'll see what we can do. Lemme know people, just tryin to make things more customizable. PS Bear in mind its a tad tricky to pull off, so try to pick somethin you wouldnt mind having, it cant be switched as easily as your title.
Reverend Jax Posted August 22, 2002 Posted August 22, 2002 Can't find one for me yet. Here's one Junker might like:
Reverend Jax Posted August 22, 2002 Posted August 22, 2002 Can I be "Senate - Sacred Cow" with the second cow from this zip file? For anyone looking here's a nice site with lots of them.
Dirty Gypsy Posted August 22, 2002 Posted August 22, 2002 I know I've got plenty of time to think about it, but what could I be?
The NZA Posted August 22, 2002 Author Posted August 22, 2002 Jack's - I cant extract that one icon from the file; its an icon library file, kinda tricky. Caught an image of it, here it be: Tell me what ya think i should do. Gypsy - You could be "The Senate - Pikey" or somethin when ya make it...youve got time.
SuperEeyore Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 SO WHAT THE HELL WOULD I BE..?? Senate:Hoe..? eehh no I don't think so.. I am the first Female to make Senate.. hhmmm Senate: the first lady.. has a nice ring to it..
The NZA Posted August 23, 2002 Author Posted August 23, 2002 You could be that, and have your own stuff at the bottom too. But cmon, change your member title sometime, you "finally did it!" weeks ago! Be miss Supa Dupa Fly or somethin. ;)
King of Snake Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 I'll try and rustle up a .gif in the next couple of days, but what to pick? I'll probably go for 'Senate - Samurai' or 'Senate - Rönin'.
The NZA Posted August 23, 2002 Author Posted August 23, 2002 Cool, we could use a Ronin! :wasabi: Lemme know if ya need help with the .gif's, i can look for ya too, god knows i owe ya.
The NZA Posted August 23, 2002 Author Posted August 23, 2002 PS im curious here - Jack, that icon you put up for Junker; why is it from the Aljazeera network? Not that i can understand a whole lotta what's goin on there, just found it odd. "Hey Junker, use this icon, it feeds a terrorist everytime someone reads a post!" or somethin.
Reverend Jax Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 I just did a google search witht eh limitations "gif" and "icon size". Since I have no idea what to like for, I tried "cool", that came up and I thought Junker might like it. As far as mine, that's cool. I'm not sure if you had a size limitation. It's hard to find something interesting really small.
SuperEeyore Posted August 23, 2002 Posted August 23, 2002 There ya go just for you Nick.. I am drunken deities Queen PIMP!!! hahaha I was bored what can I say.... eeehh ya think I can get some crowns or something as a little Icon. I llike this tittle... hehehe
King of Snake Posted August 24, 2002 Posted August 24, 2002 Maybe we should have a set size of 16x16, MLB's already is, Jacks' one could be easily modified to be and the proposed Junker one could be cropped easily. Since the blue squares are 10x10, the custom icons will still show up bigger than em... ...I've to go work now but I'll size up JMT's and Junk's later to show you all what I mean.
The NZA Posted August 24, 2002 Author Posted August 24, 2002 'S a good idea to keep it from lookin awkward, show em what ya mean when ya get a chance KOS.
Dirty Gypsy Posted August 24, 2002 Posted August 24, 2002 Hmmm...the Pikey, eh? Have a title like, "Areyahaboxer? Yehlooklikaboxer." -Your Local "JAYSIS! Wouljalookathasizeofim?" Dirty Gypsy
King of Snake Posted August 24, 2002 Posted August 24, 2002 I'm gonna have a good peruse of the forums, then I'll do them up, they'll be done shortly... :approve:
SuperEeyore Posted August 24, 2002 Posted August 24, 2002 So you mean if I give you guys a picture you can make me an icon.. for my post numbers.. cause if it were up to me I want stars! or like a little starfish you know something that has to do with OBO... You know me always looking to pimp my sorority more.. hehehe I love my girls!!!
Reverend Jax Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Wait a minute, I just thought of something! IC: can it be animated?
The NZA Posted August 25, 2002 Author Posted August 25, 2002 Isa - yeah, you got the idea. You want the stars we had on the old board? I can do that. Jack's - Ideally, no, were mean enough to modem folk as it is, since static files of this size are so small it shoud be cool.
King of Snake Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Here's the icons sized up at 16x16 (well 16hx18w with the last two columns transparent for spacing): So when one of the members has a few it'll look like: or or I added two blank columns to each for spacing and made the background on MLB's transparent...
Reverend Jax Posted August 25, 2002 Posted August 25, 2002 Good work KOS. I thought Junker would like those like video cameras (being a film buff, and film major, I think), but we'll never know if he never stumbles across this thread.
SuperEeyore Posted August 26, 2002 Posted August 26, 2002 Nick I actually have a star that I would like to use.. if it were possible.. I mean if its out of our hands that it can't be used then hey Fuck it.. ya know... now let me just go out and look for this special star...
Reverend Jax Posted August 26, 2002 Posted August 26, 2002 If I had to get a star, I would personally like to have mario stars. Oh yeah, that's the stuff!
