While the character signature graphics are absolutely awesome, I have to say that their size might be too large. I think it was good when we each had only one character. However, I feel it is taking up too much page space for those that have multiple characters. It becomes a distraction from the story of the SIM as well as a nuisance to have to scroll so far on a forum page.
If our artists have time and we think it is a good idea, I suggest we look into creating something a little smaller. _________________

It may be a good idea, I'll discuss it with our Graphics Chief. _________________

Im with Mehvra-Kuplo on this one. I'd even be willing to work with the graphics chief on resizing the current ones if she'd like. _________________

It shouldn't be too difficult. Just a bit time-consuming. I do agree they're taking up a lot of space. I'll see how small I can make them and still be nice and legible. _________________

Whew! Almost had to postpone all that when I woke up this morning and my computer popped up with a dreaded "blue screen". And since my photoshop program is on my computer and not Tom's... But! We got it fixed. There was a damaged RAM card. I'm so relieved. I felt like someone had cut off my arm lol. *hugs computer and makes pathetic baby noises.* _________________

I actually tried to get a hold of you earlier today before we took it to geek squad. you had an afk message up on aim though. didn't cost us that much though, just the price of the ram that was needed. _________________

Oki doki. I've got all the badges re-sized to nearly half what they are now. They're uploaded and ready to go, but it will take a little bit of time to redo all of the signatures with the new ones. When we're done, I'll post here to let everyone know (you may have some news ones as well as old ones still up as we work). If, after that post, you're still missing a character or I've forgotten you, send me a PM and I'll straighten it out.
Remember to send me your info when you have a new character in play, else I won't know to make the badge. Thanks! _________________

About time! Sheesh...she's been slacking off!
As someone who has in the past been solely responsible for graphics for a sim, you have a HUGE job with lots of work involved and I greatly appreciate the quality work you do. _________________

Even in the 24th century, Adobe Photoshop CS2134 requires user input. Just be glad that Starfleet ships don't run Windows 2375...that piece of junk crashed every 10 minutes! Totally rolling on Mac OS M 1000.6 Klingon Hellcat _________________

abobe photoshop CS2134
Let me know when that one comes out! I'll extend the human life span somehow if I have to, just to get my hands on that!... Oh, who am I kidding? My computer takes 3 hours just to boot CS3.
But thanks so much for the support. I appreciate it. _________________
