Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

So... Was wanting to get a personalized icon.

I'm a sucker for the WAR symbol, the one that's my current Icon. I was wondering if I could get it a lil more customized though.

I'd really like to see my name "Daemilien" somewhere on the icon, and then possibly change the white to red, and make it a lil more "gloomy" looking?

Something kinda along the lines of the WAR symbol in this picture:

http://interpim.com/xyz/war_reports2.jpg

I understand the detail in that picture prob. can't be brought to the icons... but just thought I would give some ideas so help out he process wink

Thanks in advance, appreciate it.


Also animation is cool too. Not sure how to impliment that, possibly just on my name? Coming up short on ideas there haha.

Here is a non animated version. I'm trying to think of something I could do with your name and/or the WAR logo...


Name: Daemilien

I like I like.

As far as animation not sure what the icons can handle, what about having the name like peel or "blow" away? No idea if even possible.

I appreciate you doing this for me.

I could probably make it fall in, like go from way big to the size it is so it looks like it just comes in from outside the icon..if that makes sense.

Yeah I'd love to see how that looks.

If it doesn't work then it can stay as is, since it looks good.

No. The one labeled oversize does not even try. The two others do (the simple one and the one with your full name in blood).

When submiting, make sure the filenames are correct. In those, they are not. The correct format for admin icons is
admin_[username]_[userid]-[number].gif

My file was lacking the second underscore (the mmii system really likes to eat them), it should be
admin_daemilien_1630810-2.gif
