Flag Avatars Unread post

On a suggestion from Redband, I downloaded a set of flags that can be used as avatars.
These include flags for countries, states (US, UK, UAE, Australia, Belgium, Canada, Holland, & Spain), organizations, and signal flags.
All total there's about 428 flags.
Now I seriously doubt we need all of those so I'll put it to y'all to decide what you want.
My thoughts are, whoever wants to use one of these flags as their avatar just let me know and I'll add it to the avatar folder for ya'.
Bear in mind there may soon be coming a set of railroad logos that can be used as avatars also.

Edit 1: As you can see, there's also the option of adding a flag to your sig as seen in Redband's posts. :wink: Just let me know as I have to do that.

All folks as come to Sussex must follow Sussex wyas,
And when they've larned to know us well
There's no place else they'd wish to dwell in all their blessed days.
There ant no place like Sussex until you goes Above,
But Sussex will be Sussex, and Sussex won't be druv.

Well, you asked for 2. Which one do you want for an avatar and which one for your sig?
It makes a difference because they go in different locations on the server.

I don't know how to get this avatar in - http://www.avatarist.com/avatars/Cartoo ... ious..html
the avatar box said the URL was not valid.

As you know, I'm clueless about this stuff. It took me a year to get this avatar into the old site.

OK! I've added a few of the more common country flags to the avatar/gallery/flags category.
If you have a country, or state, you want to use let me know. I probably have it out of the 428 I downloaded. :roll:

Magic - I ask and the avatar appears!

:P

If only things could be so easy with SMR. I'm still playing it, the patch made it playable, it is fun, but it isn't RT3.

Now Winnie's looking for the editor.

There's a Reading Lines there. Anything else would have to be requested from Mr. Scott. He's the guy that did the railroad logos. I've added all he's sent me so far. I do believe he's working on more though. Maybe you could ask him if the one you want will be in his next batch. :)
