Creating a society/order?
Sir Edward:
BTW, the Dering Roll of Arms is the oldest known roll of arms to exist from England. It was made famous by being altered later, by Dering, to forge a knightly lineage for himself.
But it's serving as a sort of model for what I want to do with the membership page on the website. A nice big roll of arms. The ORder of Selohaar does this too: http://selohaar.org/rollofarms.htm
Sir Edward:
BTW, if you guys have higher-resolution versions of your heraldry, I can use that to make prettier images for our Roll of Arms. Otherwise, I can try to redraw and reshape what you have already, but it probably won't look as good.
Sir Patrick:
I really like the look of that Selohaar roll of arms page! Something like that would be great for the Order's site. Are you wanting the shields shaped like Selohaar's, or some other shape? We should try to be uniform on that. Also, how high a resolution do you need? One last thing, on the Ordre's page, I noticed several of our arm still have the white backgrounds along the bottom. Is there anything we need to do about that when we submit the high res versions, or will just cut that out when you paste them into the page?
Sir Wolf:

Yep, I went back and removed the white border (added transparency in a PNG) on them after my last post. Right now I've just been trying to make them more or less the same size (fit within a 200x200 box). Anything bigger helps, ideally at least twice that size. Eventually I'd like to make them all uniform in shape too, but that does mean more complex re-drawing.
Wolf, I'll see if I can hack together one for yours.
