Thanks a lot.

Ok, who wants to be in charge of icon development? It's not worth much without an icon.

Well lets hope it is an Ozzy turn we are waiting and not a Deity turn.

OK. How about something as simple as this, but reduced?

Game League needs to be bigger and/or in bold? Different font? Trash it?

I agree, 'GameLeague' needs a bigger font, I can barely read it now!

i also wonder how many people, outside the few that posted here, will care at all about this.

Original GameLeague banner is attached. I will work on some ideas but someone else should as well.

Edit for edit test and new attachment.

Do you know how to super impose that GL onto a Civ II pic, or would that just be a blur?

Probably just a blur. I took the GL from the banner and even that reduced to a blur.

I think MarkG did most of them.

How about this? The GL initials from the logo ColdWizard posted superimposed over the Civ2 pyramid icon.

That's still not nearly bold enough. I'd either go for:
* C2 GL icon, just like the C2 MP icon - simple, easy to read, but sort of boring
* Slightly stylized version of that, like the SL icon, with GL and the pyramid, but much bolder than the above

I could live with the one Mercator came up with. Let's get some more input.

OK. Da Wizard disappeared and everyone quit talking. Is there a way to make Mercator's creation bolder? Is there another alternative?
If the answer to both is no, then let's go with it. Now that there's been a start, I don't want it to die on the vine.

Same. Though people making more to choose from would be good.

Every "last post" I saw was by you, so I figured you were just talking to yourself

Actually, I do like that better. It's sharper in contrast. Brighter. I like it.

I can't find a way to attach the badge to the group.
I've asked Gramphos for some hints.

I'll keep you guys updated.
SlowwHand, I've appointed you as minister of this civgroup.

OK, will do. Thanks for not just abandoning it.


Post 50 is what we'd like to go with.

Isn't it just a matter of uploading the image to the right folder?

All current CivGroup icons are GIFs in the same folder, named after the CivGroup ID. So, presumably, this icon should go here:
http://static.apolyton.net/forums/im...groups/110.gif

I've attached a GIF version of it if it needs to be a GIF.
