Opening of the badge Competition

[M D]

I like those badges, but its best to stick to the current names

[Lord Rahl]

Good work, PROMETHEUSts!

Just so you know, the current pixel dimension requirements for the badges are 175 x 60 (unless someone has been lying to me or things have changed).

I believe that I'll be changing the font color on mine since that seems to be something wanted.

[Tango12345]

Yes Prometheus those are very nice, but the original names would be much better .

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Thanks , Its very easy to change the names from latin gto english and shouldn't be a problem ... but perhaps is better to have a small guideline to know what and how to do so to not repeat things 100 times ... perhaps also better decide a style with some vote or the like so to know ...

[Ishan]

Use your imagination, custom fonts etc. Keep the dimensions in mind, like LR said it can't be more than what we already have due to filesize\bandwidth issues.

Lastly all the staff badges must have the TWC logo on them while the other ones like artifex, curator etc shouldn't have one.

[PROMETHEUS ts]

The logo I added or a different one? Why shoudlnt have the logo the others? arent still part of twc?
Can I do also other badges things?

[M D]

They are part of TWC but not appointed Staff members

Ones to have the logo:
Hex
Moderators
Content (Including Librarians)
Technical (Including Vault Staff)
Gaming Staff

Ones to not:
Tribunes and Magistrates ( I think)
Curator
CdeC
Citizens
Artifex
Civitate
Slitherine

[Tango12345]

Not to forget Creative Assembly (in the non logo section).

Hmm, I'd never thought about this until MD wrote it, but are tribunes/magistrates site staff or not.

As for the logo, yes, the one you've already put in Prometheus.

[Aikanár]

Tribunes and Magistrates serve an official purpose on TWC, hence I'd say yes. Thus I'd suggest to include the TWC Logo in their badges.

[PROMETHEUS ts]

I have checked the list of badges but seems to be incomplete then , could someone tell me the full list of actual badges? Btw could the Opifex badge be made different from Artifex as it was once ? also the color is distinguished by the red ... and shoudl it have or not a Twc Logo?
Also how aboutDivus badge? and for CA Can I use their LOGO?

[M D]

Divus, Opifex and Phalera don't need badges, they're just awards that grant privileges in terms of colour etc

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Ok pirty couse I remember befoure they had ... was cool ... anyway where I find the badge list?

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Ok I have reworked them a bit ... here are new ones....


I am not sure tough of the Following ....
What are those for and what are related to ? SO I can decide a relative statue type or else ......


Consilium de Civitate

Here the Newly remade Badges....

[Aikanár]

They are still too large, they should be

175 x 60

.

And Opifex won't be reinstated as a rank unless somebody successfully amends the constitution (including implementation), which is highly doubtful
Ah and Curator ain't TWC staff either

[M D]

They do look good though

[Aikanár]

^Absolutely!

[PROMETHEUS ts]

I didn't reduce for two reason ...

! Couse I created in this size and I can easily reduce later , so can be seen better atm ...
Then The Actual Badge Size .. .the scroll is much smaller than that predefined size so since I dunno the actual reasons of the size dimensions perhaps they can be tributed to the actual scroll lenght? If so could be mantained that larger size? If not I can easily reduce , is not a problem , tough it may incurr in some obvious minor quality ....

As for the other Badges Titles?

Some seem just Redundant ... Like for example , why cutting away Artifex , citizen etc when a lot of people use and like and instead not cut the title badge of chief of content ? that is probably used only by one and can easily use the same content staff with a subtitle in the description I guess...

I'll Make some others now :p ... and meanwhile reduce the size ...

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Double post .

As for the Opifex Btw ... It seems it's like a Title granted for exceptonal contributions to TWC ... while Artifex is a general identification as modder ... So Opifex is a step above the artifex somehow but also is related to the TWC ... in the case it shoudl be reintegrated ... should it have the TWC logo?

I really hope it gets reintegrated , couse it also shows a different color in naming


How about those?



Civitate

Consilium de Civitate

Litherine Dev Member

Tribune

Vault Staff

Content Director

Some perhaps re redundant?

But can I get a small description of what they do ? Do they need a badge too ?

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Quick Update:

Resized the Badges , added some new ones and a variation background for non TWC staff ...

[Tango12345]

Just so you know before you make the badge, its Slitherine, not Litherine.

Opifex won't be coming back any time soon, so you really shouldn't make a badge for it. It also isn't a staff rank.

All of those in your list in post 1018 need badges and none of them are redundant.

I also can't help but think that the CA badge needs something else on the left hand side? The horseman silhouette doesn't look too great when compared to the statues all the others get...I wonder if a colour image of an roman officer on horseback in a similar pose would be better?




If you want descriptions so know better what to do here are some really basic ones:

Civitate: A citizen who identifies with the debating/discussion side of the site rather than the modding side. NOT Site Staff

Consilium de Civitate: A member of the 12 strong council who regulate the citizen body. NOT Site Staff

Slitherine Dev member: Member of the Slitherine dev team. Basically the same deal as CA except a different company. NOT Site Staff

Tribune: Officials in the tribunal. Site Staff

Vault Staff: Responsible for running and looking after the TWC mod vault, where backup copies of many of TWC's mods are stored. Site Staff

Content Artist: Member of content staff who does artwork for various official publications/announcements/etc. Site Staff

Content Director: Head of a department of content staff (eg head of the Helios, Wiki Team etc.) Site Staff

EDIT: You ninja'd me!
