Hi everyone :)

Team Leaders will now have their own "Team Avatar". It will appear under the name of each of your Team Members.

Could each Team Leaders create his/her own Team Avatar and post it in this thread.

Your avatar has to be transparent, gif format, and include the small grey envelope for moderators and green envelope for Trainee Moderators above it.

Feel free to PM me if you need help {up}

Hey admin :)

I must admit that I'm a bit confused about this...

Could you give us some more information on what you want? An example would be great...

Thanks!

[agree]

An example of how one should look will be great. It will give us an idea as to what we are to create.

Also, further details such as size/dimensions will help :wink:

Sorry guys ;-)

Maximum dimensions: width 75 pixels, height 75 pixels, max file size: 15kB. .gif or jpg or png, transparent.

Your Team Logo should be under the envelope (Grey for Moderators, Green for Trainees)

So are we listing the mods and TMs on our team in the avatar? I'm still not sure of the purpose behind the avatar...it will probably make more sense once I start understanding it lol.

So does our team logo fill up the rest of the avatar or just a little section under the envelope

Hi guys {up}

The team avatar will just enable people to quickly see which team they belong to :D

I have mocked up a (very basic) idea of the form it should take. It is really the bit which replaces the "envelope" & "star" under the rank, which until now has been a very thin image, eg Image

We have now enlarged it to include not only the envelope and the stars, but also a Team logo. Users should still be able to have their own avatar shown below their team logo.

Please forgive my total lack of design skills, but I have posted an example below. I appreciate not all of us are as talented graphic-wise as I am :lol: :lol: :lol: so we might need to call on the services of Fatima and others to get these designed for us ;-)

Of course, where I have put the "Team Larasie" text, you can have a lovely team picture - but something which is easily distinguishable - I guess if it said your team name on it as well it would be best :D

Cheers, and sorry for my design skills in advance . . . You would not believe I went to design college :lol:

Oh OK, did it work? :lol:

Yes, if you could do your magic on one then it will probably be a lot easier for everyone to understand {thumb2}

Thanks :razz:
