I can feel your challenge of trying to find "clients" whom spawn on other servers which you had not intended on playing. Many of the Approved spanish UC I viewed, would be acceptable, but then not everyone travels on Bonny. /sigh

The Guild is simply called Armada.

While ClericTaven aka Paco Sanchez was tasked to "come up with something", many of us just sail about with the Beta decal iron cross. Flag wise, the generic red jagged beta cross also works for now, but seems minor in the zoomed OS passbys.

As Player, I know that some guilds confuse Flags with Sail Decals and then where should they wear their society identity vs player personal flair.
Minimumly, the rear Society flag (and I'm sure you have seen Marion's content threads about which location where user flags flew - on top or at stern).

What they are looking for is something like a merged version of the jagged Red X Cross, Spanish Coat of Arms and motto: "Lengüeta del Golpe" {hit tab}

They went out to Wiki and snagged the current CoA and then I explained that in 1720, Philippe V was King and on the same Wiki, he had a different pattern.

From what I've read here about copywright guards, most Historical CoA are considered public domain and FLS folks won't balk at their presence given all the artwork and .png format are within the acceptable requirements.

{My earlier working Beta UC - got rejected before PreBoarding, as I also read, many other authors chargin about those same working for them and then removed before 'live'.}

Doubloons appear not to be a problem and if needed I will go to your Shoppe and submit a proper order for a Set of Society Decals and Flags.
I tried to do some layer'd merges of my own, but just not happy with the default Window font choices I have in Paintbrush Pro.

I suppose I could go fetch something more .TT to install, but seems like a fuss for something that is humored rather than as important cosmetically.
I'm even thinking rather than a CoA, the simple Red, White and Yellow type "shield" with the Motto Lettering displayed (transparently?) through the white stripe.

If this sounds easy enough for a description with your own personal creativity, I'm sure other members will trust my judgement. I had already suggested on their forums that I would seek out a content author rather than reinvent the artwork, if it were available.

thinking outloud, do you imbed your own .sig/initials in your images or, as few rarely do, actual sign their images information details?

I once found a .gif I mashed together redistributed, not that I minded, but did ask the poster where he/she got it... and then asked in reply (knowningly), what the Info Detail said. Sure enough my Taven handle was still in there.

Aye, I'd like for you to put the application in over at the Shoppe, for records sake mostly, but also, it's where I post samples for you to tweak/reject/approve before final product, and it would double serve you as you would have a place to show your society as well. It doesn't sound like a hard request though, and I should have something in no time.

You've been busy I see.

It would be nice to have a real flag to fly around on our ships for our logo.

What do you all think about this one?
