Thank you, I also set it up as a template so I can make any ship name and battlegroup by just editing the text layers.

I also did a photo manipulation for Admiral John Majest, commander of the Battlestar Endeavour and make a shot of the logo behind him. :)

Wow, that looks really great! Awesome stuff, Maj! :)
I love the scratchy look, too. With this, the Battlestar's crew will be uber-cool and all even if they lose.
(The watermark is ****py, though. You need a better one. :p)

:lol2: Yeah the watermark is isn't it. It was a quick 5 minute job that's all.

I am glad you all like the logo. At some point soon I'll see about uploading the image with my character in it. It was actually built for gaming purposes as was the logo. :)

Sweet! If I ever get around to making a campaign I may have to employ you to make me one because I can't get anything close. Very great Maj.

Here are some more BSG images. I noticed after the conversion about the bits around the side. After I do the last one I'll correct the hidden and outside bits and pieces.

Interesting question and one that fans have been debating. Whether it was officially endorsed by the creators, or just commonly fan accepted I don't know but BSG stands for Battlestar Group. It's what I personally go by myself. :)

Thanks Hellkite, I wanted actors that would fit the feel and personalities of the characters as I see them.

Who are they, BTW? My memory is not that good when it comes to actors... and Colonial uniforms make everyone look awesome. Wish I had one ^^

Hello:
I like those pics, Viggo Mortensen as the Commander of the Endeavour makes the ship look more... epic :D. I also liked the ship's seal very much :excited:.

Ohh, I just checked the movie Razor and it is "BS62" and not "BSG62", I thought you'd like to know that :naughty:.

Viggo Mortensen and Jeff Bridges.

As for the uniforms you can buy them, but they cost like $1000. I would love one myself as well. :)

Ah okay, my mistake. Oh well I think I will keep what I have for now. Thanks mate for pointing out my error. :)

Hello:
I just hope the Cylon emoticon did not said that I was been ebil... but maybe we need more Cylon emoticons :angel:.

As for the pic, I hope it would not be too difficult to edit it, because I can see that there was a lot of work involved to get it done, and "BSG" is like the obious choice since we have heard about the Battlestar Groups.

Good luck with the editing, and I don't think any of us will notice or care much about that "g" :)

I made it up as a template so it's all very easy to do. A quick 5 second job. :thumbsup:

Hello:
That is a relief :excited:.
Keep it up!

Wouldn't you get mad if someday I ask you about a Seal for a specific Battlestar?

Nope, it can easily be edited, I made it so it could be done. :)

Hello:
That is awesome, specially since I would believe Miss Katala would like a Seal too :).

Ah, interesting - looks like we got ourselves another BSG mod :yum:

Don't wish to willfully misunderstand, but am I correct that you are having difficult centering all three images (looks as if you are putting in a third avatar from that pic)?

Ah heck yes, more modding for FO. :worship: I can't wait to see how the Colonials turn out here. The warp in system should work well for them. I'd love to see a faction based almost entirely on warp in's rather then building out of yards.

Sweet man, I can't wait to see what you come up with.:thumbsup:

It may interest you to know that the transwarp edge teleporting bug has been fixed in the latest version of FO, so the transwarp classlable for a weapon would be excellent to use for FTL:D

Yes I am having 3 avatars at least to start with. I haven't looked at centering them as of yet, but I do know it can be done as I saw Amateur's thread on the FO Forums about it.

While this is a BSG mod, I am in no way intending to compete with Adm_Z's mod, in fact I think I will enjoy playing Adm_Z's more than my own. A lot more thought and attention of detail has been put into his. :lol:

Yeah they all all warp-in, absolutely no building whatsoever for them. I have a few idea's that I have been playing with for a couple of weeks and only today, well yesterday did I start doing something with the actual game itself.

I have also uploaded a new image showing the third avatar that I just made. :)
