User-Created Badges

[Charon]

Of course we'll keep the runes in there, that's a given. I'll probably start with those sometime... I'm kind of loaded today (helping Sala with his hack, organizing the badges, stuff at home) so maybe I'll start tomorrow.

If you wanna help out too that'd be wonderful.

[Griever]

If you are gonna include characters, then go with the main characters of each game then move to the secondary characters and so one ... the series has like 700+ if they didn't reach 1000 already lol

Luc is a must since he appears in the first 3 games ....
And i can help with this since i have played the first two, the fourth, fifth and the spin off >_<
Just let me know if you need any help and what is your plan ^_^

[Rolina]

Luc wields the True Wind Rune, so he's already included as a True Rune Wielder.

[Charon]

So we're starting with TR chars. Then I'll do TR badges (the designs).

Sometimes the TR goes from one character to another though, like with Ted and McDohl, but I bet none of us would really care for a Jimba badge, even though technically he did once have True Water. So I still think a wanted character list would be good.

Also, what's your opinion on characters with alternative outfits, like Luc?

EDIT: I think I have a good idea. I can do two sets, one for True Rune characters and another for other important characters. The latter will be just 1 coin each, while the TR characters will be 2. When I make a new set I'll have all of them be worth 4 coins though.

I think their set names will be TR and SK. They'll technically be part of the same set but because of the way I put it together I'll need two sets to fit all the badges. It's a lot of work but I think it'll be worth it, especially considering I've been kinda lazy with the LE thing.

[Rolina]

Speak for yourself.  Each person who had a true rune would be cool, even if one of them isn't even a star, IIRC.

As for characters that appear in different games, use the game portrait for the game they carry a true rune in.  For Luc, it'd be GSIII.  For Ted, GSIV.  You get the idea.

Also, characters who have runes related to True Runes, such as the Dawn and Dusk runes, the Sword and Shield runes, etc...

[Charon]

Alright, I'll get as many of them as I can, some of them don't have stock that I can work with.

Also, I know next to nothing about Suikoden or Suikoden IV so you all might want to list some important characters. My knowledge is pretty scant on Tierkreis too because I played it sporadically 2 years ago (this is for the second set). Since Thomas, Nash and Freyr are mains in the games I'll include them in Set I as well. No Tierkreis characters will be included in the second set.

[Rolina]

Pfft.  Just go to Suikosource and save the profile pics and/or pictures you need.  It should have bios on every character, too.

[Charon]

Pshaw! Their pics are tiny. But they do have pretty good bios. :D And at least their SI-II aren't gifs.

I'm getting to work on saving pics, expect the TR's by Monday at latest.

Uhh. Charon? When you first accepted my zack badge before the others, it wqs in the shop and called just Badge. Now Aerith has replaced it with that same name and Sephieoth isn't there at all. ???

Zack was fixed, Sephie should be there (might be in the wrong location) and I'll check Aerith.

EDIT: Aerith was fixed, Sephie IS there... for some reason looking for him by name doesn't work. Try ID code. ID code for that badge is C047.

[Shinigami]

For the sake of convenience I will upload a folder with all the badges contained within the other two... And a preview of all the badges...


[spoiler= Possibly unnecessary suggestion...]Suggestion for handling this: Delete all current Touhou badges, reduce my coin count to 0, upload all displayed Touhou badges, increase coin count by relative amount. It would get rid of unnecessary confusion when replacing all the old ones... (I don't mean that as it sounds by the way, just could not think of another way to phrase it...)[/spoiler]

.zip folder is, as always, attached to the post...

[Charon]

Do you mean the ones I uploaded a few months ago because I haven't uploaded any of your new ones yet.

I'll reset your coins to 0 though and do that. Just don't expect them back right away because I'm doing the Limited Edition set and its going to be a doozy.

[Shinigami]

Due to the "Tip of the week" item in the shop having no icon...
Technically not a badge, but...


If you use it or not is of course entirely up to you... I just thought it would look less plain...

[Charon]

Thanks!

Yeah, it does look kind of weird without an icon, so I gave you a coin for that. :D

[FelixWolf]

[Charon]

Alright, you're getting there, but the stock you used is very pixelly. I would recommend using a fairly large sized stock (400 pixels or more), then cropping to the selection you want, then doing it.

If you have the XCF file I could see if I could make it look a little better though.

[FelixWolf]

thanks Charon ive been practicing using GIMP and ill see if one day im able to make a good badge, i won't give up, but i dropped some water on my mouse so im using my joypad as mouse though

[dwkjohn]

you could try inkscape and then open the image in gimp to put the base on it. I love inkscape. I use a mixture of it, paint, gimp, and microsoft word 2010. weird I know. XP

[dwkjohn]

[dwkjohn]
