Pennant article to come soon

Post by SavaTheAggie »

I'm just about to start writing the article, all the images have been created.

Until then, here's a little sum'n-sum'n to wet your appetite.

That is all.

Wow! I'm torn. I've never done any customizing in my life but this is downright awesome. I sure wish TLC would make stuff like this so I wouldn't have to make these decisions all the time.

I'm looking forward to it. I think your decision to make a limited addition to the banner and work with it's natural color was a good one.

It looks really, really cool, and I can't wait for the article, but...

Maybe you could modify the template so instead of being something you just stick on, it's something you wrap around the flag? Because now the base flag's color shows on the top and bottom.

Just a suggestion.

It's a very good suggestion, but impossible to do. Since the flags curve, and you have to bend the paper to match the curve, wrapping the sticker around the flag is limited only to wrapping the sticker around the thick round part of the flag. You can't wrap the flag over the top or bottom and have it follow the flag's contour.

**SNIFF** You're so good to us poor, lowly commoners! It's pure genius, that's what it is!what'll you come up with next? :wink:
Sitting in a midnight glade
Firelight dancing off burnished blade
A Forestman sits
Wondering about the next day
But after three mugs of ale
Let it bring what it may.

I like the yellow Falcon one already. (The one in your lego bucket guessing contest.)

I'm sorry, I don't know how I'd have missed that. I think that a) I was tired, and b) I was looking at the back of the flag where it is pretty flat.

Oh well...still can't wait!
