well, since Ze_Pilot told me yesterday in Chat that he wont answer PMs anymore (as they are too time consuming), I'll just make this public on here in hope that the basic informations get where are supposed to go.
First of all, I finished to port some Avatars from GPGnet to the new Size of FAF. Its 24 Avatars at all and
Avatars_20120809.rar- (95.75 KiB) Downloaded 416 times
I've picked some nice once, which were actually still identifiable in the new (smaller) size.
Avatars like the "fightAdmin" which was initially created for the GPGnet Admins vs Users Tourneys might just find a new use as something else.
As you also can see, I allowed myself to include 3 personal Avatars to be ported as well. First of all, its Vikings (with a small improvement, watch his new horns which will not just slaughter every spammer, but gives a adequate, imposing look
). Second one is Voodoos (since he donated tourney-prices already it should be fine I think) and third one is mine (as I've spend quite some work on fitting the others [+ read below],I hope this is ok as well).2nd Point. I've also made some new Rank-Icons.
Zep, if you want to, feel free to use them as default for FAF.
However, you guys can also just implement them offline in your FAF Install or any Theme. (also @ all the Theme creators: feel free to use them if you want to).
If you want to implement them in your FAF Installation, just browse to your FAF Lobby Install Folder (i.e. C:\Forged Alliance Forever - Lobby), go to ...\_res\chat\rank and replace the Files there with the once from the attached file.

Finally, 3rd Point. (Ze_Pilot exclusive one, normally)
As I hope, now that we have an Avatar System which is hopefully filling up soon, that the amount of tourneys just increase by 100000%, I also fear that hosting tourneys might drop down to the frustrating level it once had on GPGnet. This wasn't really coursed by the low amount of signups, it was rather frustrating to have to "hunt" for Avatars for a long while (especially when Viking wasnt arround
).Since that, and for other reasons of course, I wanted to offer my Help (ask if I can help / ask if I may can become / beg to spend time in it [which formulation you ever like] ) as Moderator (or however you call them).
By this, I also could deal with Avatar-Stuff, as I have some experiences with it. I think there is noo need to mention about my experiences with the other stuff that goes along with it.
Cheers,
Koecher
