At least you didn't change it completely.

Lyonesse,
Would you be able to make me a "Stratego" Fish? The writing don't have to be fancy, just "Stratego" written inside a fish outline (kinda like the "Jesus" fish).

I guess we could go smaller with the letters but too small doesn't look good, IMO. Looking at some different fonts now, but here's what I have so far.
I like it, nearly perfect.
What about the darker-blue pictures, but with the "R" in red in the top left and the "M" in red in the top Right corner.
Is that possible ?
I am having the same problem at Vancouver2010 on this one. Adjusting the size on the fish makes it VERY difficult to get the letters in there and have it look good, and for that matter, to even read the letter's in some cases. I have tried several different "fish" designs and they all are about the same, you could make out the fish, and you know there are letters in there, BUT you can't make out what the letters are <sigh>
This is one of the BETTER versions I came up with
Thanks a lot, this is excellent.

Saw this on Engrish.com and thought it would make an excellent avatar:

thanks for trying
. Don't worry too much about the lettering. As long as people can vaguely figure out it's Stratego, it's ok. Maybe really small letters at the ends?Can you flip the fish the other way around, and make it silver? Also have the words fit the fish vertically. Thanks

I'll take a crack at your Icthus (ΙΧΘΥΣ) avatar tomorrow, too late tonight.

Hmm, I was wondering if it were possible to change the background for my Avatar from the Sunset/Sunrise dealie to something a little . . . flashier . . .
First, I would like to have the Leaf and Peanut outlined in black, please.
For the background, I want something flashy, something neon, maybe like neon colours in kind of a random arrangement, pocka dots, something besides the sunset. I know what I am looking for, I just can't explain it. Something like neon colours striped, but squiggly stripes, if that makes any sense . . .
Please and thank you, of course. You guys are great!!!

I've gone and read though this thread and the previous one which started it in the last two days and I just want to say WOW. You guys (and gals) are quite talented. I can resize stuff without problem but the guides you have provided are quite helpful. I'm not really looking for an icon but just wish to give you all my praise on such excellent work and to wonder how many of you do graphical work for a living?
Well THANK YOU! I am glad that you like the thread!
I can't speak for the others, but I do love "working" with graphics (actually its more "playing" than working). To answer your question... I make my living being a stay at home mom of 4 boys (5 if you count the hubby) and 1 girl
I've never gone thru any "graphical" (is that a word?) classes. I have used Photoshop for about 4 years and have learned pretty much everything by trial and error 
Raijer, on the other hand, does work with graphics (he's the "resident professional" 
) Not sure if anyone else here works in graphics though.Thanks again for the compliments!
