W&C Banner

**LavaRed** · #1 02-08-2011, 03:48 AM

So, does anyone here know how to get our own individual banner set up?

I'm proposing one of these two pictures for a banner. If anyone can make the arrangements, we can then use them for that.

Also other banner ideas are welcome.

Thanks,
LavaRed

You, on the left end of the banner, in the ghillie with an AK and face-paint, pointing the muzzle (complete with bayonet) at the words "weapons and combat" to the right.

You know it's what this forum needs.

I was JUST ABOUT to make this very thread. I talked to 5.56 about it like a week ago, but put it off. Here is the one I was going to submit to get everything started.

I like this pic, although might have copyright issues.

I have something close

They're old tho, because none of my clothes or equipment fit anymore. I've gone from a 34 to a 40 waist in the last 6 months.

Bleeding Kansas · #9 02-08-2011, 07:19 PM

Looks more like MARPAT than Flecktarn.

It's propietary Guatemalan DigiCam actually. It's colours are bottle green, reddish brown, cream and black.

I had to apply a filter to this one because the image dimensions made it looked stretched out when resized and cropped. It masks the unconstrained proportions.

Do you really like it that much?! Just PM Zok and ask him to change the banner. Just linking him into this thread and and telling him which image should be enough. As you can see, that one is a little smaller than the current banner, but it shouldn't cause any problems.

I've been working on another one for the military forum we have here on zoklet, but it might also fit here. It's the proper size all I would have to to do is add a few words. Even that isn't necessary if you don't want me to, Lava. The banner could speak for itself. Let me know if you want me to work on it for here, or if you would rather just have the one above.

And here is pretty much the same black and white banner but resized and I messed with the font a little. I like this much more.

I've updated the first about this banner.

I liked the greenish NV tint of the one above, but it definitely fits mych better in the military forum.

Is it possible to give the M60 one the greenish NV tint? I think if that could be done it would be doubly awesome.

And yes, I liked it that much. You got talent mate.

Well, the NV one is from a picture taken with or through a NV scope, so that's why it looks so good. It's actually a French solider in Afghanistan. All I did was crop it and take some of the noise (static) out. Honestly, I wouldn't know how to give it a natural looking NV tint. There is a bit more than just the color when it comes to that.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I look forward to seeing the m60 one up there.
