It was more of a general statement, but I can live with only calling all the allied tank drivers rats :devil .  We're all rats here... except for the Aussies, maybe they're roos... and of cource there's our resident frog.

Due to limited patch area, I say we make it a Desert Kangaroo Foxrat, and call it good.  (Just kidding, of course.)

Although I like them both, I'm tending to lean toward Krusty's patch simply because I flew B25's in this event.  :D

I've decided I liked the text the way it was before, but the new orange color is better.

However, my limited text manipulation capabilities don't really let me get what I want onto the patch. I'll just leave the border blank, and the text can be put on via any stitching text/font programs the patch makers use. I've seen their previous works and know they can get pretty narrow fonts while retaining legibility.



K-Ken, can't do small fighters like you suggest. Even with the larger ones from OpHusky, it was a real PITA to get the shapes to look like planes and not blobs. Small details don't work so well that way. I know, it's odd... They can do a perfect outline of Japan for Downfall, but they choke on the planes in Husky. Go figure!

Just a reminder for Fencer's patches - doesn't he need the little "TM" after Aces High to keep it legal?

Check the patches link in my sig. Lists a current balance (whenever Brooke updates it, that is), give you an idea of where we are on that front.

Yea, Krusty, I know about that site.
My question was ment to be Tunisia DoB patch specific.
This seemed to be the thread in which the discussion and design proposals were being posted, so I thought I would ask what the status was, and if the hold up was a lack of funds in the kitty. The reason I asked was because the thread sort of died.
Thanks for your response, even though it did nothing whats so ever to answer my question.

Sorry if I offended. I thought I was answering your question, as the first line on the page is:

"Patch account balance as of October 20, 2008: US$75.28 (Previous patch was Battle of Britain 2008. Next patch is Tunisia: Dawn of Battle.)"

A bit out of date, but it might imply that funds are the reason. Normally a patch run can't/won't start until the funds are in place.

That's my take on it.

Sorry for the delay, guys.  I got caught up in getting Coral Sea up and going.  I will get back on this and get it going this weekend.

Folks, time to vote on which patch you'd like, the Krusty design or the Fencer design.
