With the picture being so small your not going to get enough detail to make the 2X really identifiable.

I scaled it down in photoshop and it's pixeld to much.


Change the background color to AH's default transparent to get rid of that white square...  something pink I think.  Can't remember exactly  Might put a BIG 2]/b] in the middle of that bomb so you can make it out better than the x2

Thanks Odee.

I made the insignia w/ a light grey background & I’m beginning to think I made it transparent because it shows up as just the insignia w/o the white background which is a plus.

Default is pink.

I think I may just put a big number 2 on the bomb


I got so caught up in photoshop and didn’t realize I had to use the “bottom of the creativeness barrel” that is MS Paint to get the 256 color.

I wonder why HTC does not allow .png files for nose art/insignias?  Is it because a .png file will not mesh w/ the graphics in-game?

Why cant you get the 256 color in photoshop? Which v. are u using?
Photoshop does 256. I have the manual here somewhere let me know if u need me to dig it up!

I have the latest and greatest version of photoshop.  It’s something that I haven’t dealt with in my short time in using photoshop and could not find.  If you know how to make that change in photoshop please by all means let me know.

Oh, when are you going to join the VF-31 Tomcatters FireDrgn?  If you did, you would be with your twin brother in Wing I. :)
