Very cool sir can you do one for the SOA_ TITAN ?  

[Fury_of_a_Seraph]

I need a name, a number, and the era.
By era i mean what do you want the com-badge to look like....now bear in mind, i can do a crap-load.

also i need to know what motto you guys want.

You have to be a member of BCU, though.

Here is what i can do for Insignias



You can have any combination of these. Silver will always go on top of Gold, and they go ontop of each other from left to right (meaning the Star is on top of The Generations Delta, if they are both in the insignia)

here is a list of what insignia's are called, going from left to right

Silver
- Lone Star (i recommend using this in conjuction with Outline)
- Outline
- Star Cutout
- Flyer (found it on the web, thought it would be good for Fighter Corps)
- 29th Century
- Generations
- Half w/ star
- Half without star
- Standard

Gold
- 29th Filled
- 29 Outline
- Hex Filled
- Hex Outline
- Hex Special 1
- Hex Special 2
- Circle Filled
- Circle Outline
- Ex Astris Scientia
- Tango Filled
- Tango Outline
- Tango Special
- Oval Filled
- Oval Outline
- TMP
- Wings 1
- Wings 2
- Slates
- Bars
- Voyager Backing

How come we need BCU membership? I still have an account there but am just wonderin' why it's necessary.

So could you make one for me? I don't have Photoshop and even if I did I'm hopeless with vector art, most I can do is make starfleet regs in Corel

[Fury_of_a_Seraph]

Because its uploaded at BCU forums and nightsoft is being a pain, so i cannot upload it there.

Sure, i can make one for you, All i need is what kind of information you want on it. Toss me an Email or post it here, the Name, Reg, class, location, all that jazz...and of course, who you want listed under each section.

K, that's cool, the ship is as follows:

U.S.S. Sicilia NCC-1713-A (second ship to bear the name - first was renamed from USS Monitor), Lexington class, constructed at Hellas Planitia Shipyards, Mars. Would've been commissioned in early 2296, I have no idea how to convert that to stardates. I d/led a converter thingy but it don't work

The ship's motto is the following:

"I palori nimici fannu ridiri chiddi di l'amici fanni chianciri."

(Which translates as "The words of enemies make you laugh, but those of friends can make you cry." Or in plain english it means ignore the boasts of your enemies but heed the advice of friends.)

The symbol, hmm, the star with the outline, and them on top of the TMP gold.

Erm, I can't really think of a whole list and I wouldn't want to name just a few so those you have should be fine, but don't they usually have ranks on the ones in the show (like the Voyager, Enterprise, Excelsior etc.), like the guys in SF Command are all Admirals of various ranks.

[Fury_of_a_Seraph]

well, Adam, thats because its a PSD not a PSP file....its for Photoshop, not Paint Shop Pro.

[Fury_of_a_Seraph]

[nx_adam_1701]

That's way cool except two tiny gripes, could you change the gold backing to the TMP one like I said in my previous post?  It's the rectangular one with the horizontal lines. Also Planitia is the correct spelling, so it should be 'Hellas Planitia', I checked some sites, it's a crater on Mars at the moment but apparently is another shipyard in Trek. Other than that it looks fantastic

BTW how did you figure out the stardate? Just out of interest.

[Fury_of_a_Seraph]

Sorry about that, my mind saw TNG when i read that.
spelling of Planitia is corrected...again another mindfart on my part

As far as the Stardate...according to this site (http://www.smileylich.com/sfb/) Stardates start at 2264 and also according to that site a solar year is 500 in stardates...so i take the year, subtract 2264, then multiply by 500...then i add a few misc numbers that would equate to the beginning of the year.
