Since we have so many [civ3] unit avatars, can't we get one for the longship

much like there's one for the dromon?

Why?

If you like this, have it as an avatar yourself...

I will, in due time, but I wanted it to be up for the whole community :). Y'know, with transparency so it can be used on all civ-interfaces, etc. etc.?
 
I second this. A longship avvie is long overdue. Also I was going to do some clever maritime puns, but I can't be arsed to think of any.
 
The Vikings should be represented! I think a longboat would be a nice addition - :)
 
I support this, Longships are epic in the Middle Ages conquest! :D
 
Agreed.
 
Well, I'm thinking were going to wait a while till they fix the attachments/avatar/profile pic issue before this boat is added.

Methinks that is how it is going to be.

I support the Longship avatar. My acnestors were vikings until the bottom fell out of the viking business and the became bankers and lawyers.
 
I don't see why one unit should be included yet not another. I agree.
 
Well, the uploads issue has been fixed now… :)
 
I did some simple tinkering in GIMP and came up with this:

Someone better than me can probably do a cleaner version, but yes, it is possible.
 
I did one with the shadow and was just finishing when Thorvald posted his…

I think both are more or less acceptable :)

(of course both show up a bit ugly when against the Black CFC background, but it's the least avatar-friendly of all the skins)
 
I like your shadow better. :)
 
Shows up nice on regular CFC, Pale White, Mac OS X, Ancient CFC, and Christmas. Horrible on Turnip Green, Dark Blue or Black CFC.
