It doesn't work if you use Trillian, GE. So you'll have to switch over to regular AIM for this.

Cuervo, can you throw together something for the Armadillos? I'm thinking either Red and Pewter or Red and Grey.

Hmm, so I have to look for waves crashing, AND breakers....very similar Actually sachmo, weren't the NO Breakers a USFL team for a season (Boston, Portland, New Orleans I think)? Armadillos I should be able to do, I actually looked up 'armadillo' earlier...found many images. Here's an attempt at TroyF's Denver Dynamite:

how does this work for you?




let me know if the color shades are bad, better yet, show me an example of the colors you want and I can adjust those.

and yes Cuervo: this was a USFL team in 1994, I LOVED these guys. I'll be using them in their standard format in another league if I don't get in this one.

On the topic of message board - much kudos to vtbub for putting it together - but can we just ask Ben to create one for us here?

Yeah, but it's what the people want. Strangely this one took more time and more effort than either yours or mine.


Though I must say, doing these with Microsoft Paint and Picture It can be very frusterating...

Oh, I'm not bagging on your work or anything. It's a hell of a lot better than anything I could even think of doing...

I just remember t-squares from my seventh grade shop class. That was the most boring lesson of the year...

Oh, I didn't think you were. I find them somewhat boring for similart reasons. And although it looks alright, it's really damn frusterating to do any such work with those two programs.

Cuervo, if you'd like, could you touch up my helmet a tiny bit? The logo is OK but the coloring is a little off along the edges.

3ric, that's just a modification of the one from the Helmets site, correct? I can do a cleaner version, I'll post it later.

Primal, I can touch yours up too, the logo can be bigger and rotated, if that's ok.

Yeah, I found a suggested Bombers helmet there, which reminded me why I chose that name for my solo FBPro98 league I ran. Ah, the memories.
