Opening of the badge Competition

**Tango12345** · August 26, 2012, 11:23 AM

The prize medals won't change for the new game, only the badges change.

Why ? Arent made new ones every year?

I'm starting to fiddle around with my badges again, mostly with font and color schemes (if I like it). I also cleaned up the original badge base I made to cut down on file size.

Here's a new base for badges, perhaps for non-staff:

And now, more badges. These are by no means finished works, so feel free to give criticism:

You might be able to tell that I desaturated the badge a bit. I thought it was a little too pinkish/colorful.

The Content ones neeed the Calvin/Hobbes stuff

Why ? Arent made new ones every year?

Yes, but the annual awards are nowhere near yet-earliest they'll be after Christmas, and old images aren't replaced anyway.

**PROMETHEUS ts** · August 26, 2012, 05:52 PM

I never claimed about replacing old images , but making new medals for the 2013 awards for rome II ....

**MasterBigAb** · August 27, 2012, 02:23 AM

Rome II will be released end of 2013, so I guess there won't be 2013 Rome II modding awards, but 2014.

**Ishan** · August 27, 2012, 10:31 AM

Yeah too too soon to think something about Rome 2 awards. And even if it's done, people will lose interest in the bling as it was lying like that for 2 years. They would prefer something fresh at that moment.

**M D** · August 27, 2012, 11:07 AM

I do think the badges should come in before the actual game, or we'll have a repeat of the Shogun situation

**Tango12345** · August 27, 2012, 11:53 AM

Yes, but hardly a year before the game Darling. That is total overkill

.

**Aikanár** · August 27, 2012, 12:03 PM

Some badges underneath the

would be just fine.
And some roman usertitles with

**MasterBigAb** · August 27, 2012, 12:08 PM

I would be more in favor with half a year before the game gets released. Max.

**Aikanár** · August 27, 2012, 12:11 PM

Well, if it's in July, make it x-mas. If it's in September/October, make it Easter

There you go, half a year

**PROMETHEUS ts** · August 27, 2012, 04:09 PM

well why not a year befoure if there are people voluntering for it? what if then half a year befoure you are "forced" to do ?
there is a difference between a forced work and a spontaneous for fun work :p ...

**MasterBigAb** · August 27, 2012, 05:42 PM

I was not talking about the work but about the actual layout change.

**M D** · August 27, 2012, 05:44 PM

Changing the badges wouldn't change the layout

**MasterBigAb** · August 27, 2012, 07:20 PM

The badge-layout/set. You know exactly what I meant Darling.

**PROMETHEUS ts** · August 27, 2012, 07:32 PM

Well ok SO I guess I have to cross arms and stay on hold untill some burocracy moves along the waters or I loose the inspiration?

**MasterBigAb** · August 27, 2012, 07:58 PM

Basically everyone (including yours) is encouraged (and in fact it is appreciated very much

) to submit his/her work

However the time in which all the submissions get collected will still take a bit, until then, you can work further on them or not, just like you wish them to be and depending on how motivated you are. When the time comes, your submissions will be placed into vote together with "suggestions" or submissions made by others
