Post by: Ruler2 on January 23, 2010, 05:08:47 PM: What do you guys think? Yeah I know the edges are kinda cheesy... but I did it all using MS Paint :D

Then again I don't like flying horses and unicorns but if it works for you. :aok

What's up with the backseat moderation? Do you not have a life?

Personally, I think the art is cool.

The only difference is that the FAA rated Ruler2's horse for a maximum ceiling of FL2100 (210,000 FT MSL). Thus the reason for the lightning... :D

For those left scratching their heads, the ionosphere starts around 200,000FT.

Yeah, you can't notice all the jagged edges when it's shrunk

Ok... A little off topic with the personal attack, yes, I do have a life. What I meant was; do you guys mind if I ask Skuzzy to move the thread?

But yes, good artwork, I can't even figure out the editor!

I think it looks better than the original one from WWII (http://www.navalaviationmuseum.org/getfile/afa04752-29a2-4a37-beea-81dfc791532d/vp11insignia.aspx) ;)

There's not much room for improvement it's still a flying horse. ;)
