Man does this work for me.
Any chance you work in the Houston area Bob? I deal w/ a whole squad of "geniuses" from there on a daily basis.

No, I'm in Arlington, stuck between Dallas and Fort Worth.jb1964 said:Man does this work for me.

And to further prove my idiotness: I work in Dallas but drive to Fort Worth to catch the commuter train to go to work. (Well, it's not that idiotic. Driving to work is a 60 mile round trip; taking the train is only 25 miles. But it doubles the commute time.)

The Lone Star flag background is a nice touch.
Sadly, the text does not look good.
But the state in the middle is quite clear and really removes the need for 'Republic of Texas', which cannot be easily read.
So let's remove the 'Republic of Texas' and try to find a way to make 'Idiot' more prominent.
My first thoughts are to move the state upwards and to move the Idiot scroll down under the state and then stretch the scolling to make it readable.
Second thought is to move both the state and scroll down and then stretch the scroll.
What do you think?

Well I decided the issue was that there was jut too much going on with the badge you supplied. I drew one myself in an attempt to clean it up a bit. It is not as fancy as the other one but I think it is much clearer and I personally like it. Let me know what you think.

After looking at this a few times I decided I "over-simplified" the badge so I added some embelishments to it...

Yes, that last one is great! It did need those embellishments, but the original was a little over-busy.

Here is what the Mistifier did for my band's album cover.
Our drummer, drew this sketch for him.
After #1:
There were a couple issues. We didn't have a band name yet. We found out the background picture was copyrighted, so he took a picture of Mrs. Bugsy's. Plus the ladies in the band had some additional ideas, and he came up with this:

Looks stunning!
I really like the way that the eye is drawn to look at the middle of the badge and does not really see what is written in the scroll. I'll show it to the other techs in the sound booth at church later today (it is 1.41 am CDT now) and see how long it takes them to find the 'IDIOT'.
I think you have created the first ever stealthly idiot!

Ahhh, memories of the church sound booth. In retrospect my days as a church 'sound guy' were my first experiences with KISS-type Idiocy. Personally, I think the average church sound booth has an Idiot/Grumpy quotient that would eclispe even our little forum.
Kudos Commando!

That sheriff badge somehow reminds me of the sheriff in Dukes of Hazzard...

I'm not sure if this is too big or not, but here's Poco. It definitely needs some cropping, but you can see by the expression on his face why I like my current cat avie so much.Mistfit said:post it here and lemme see what I can make of it... I can at least make it sized for your MSN avie

Except for the way Poco is holding his/her head (gee, kitty porn!) it looks like a good match already. That glare! And the chip on the shoulder.gmaharriet said:...but you can see by the expression on his face why I like my current cat avie so much.
