The ISD Grey Wolf has a new Com! Congrats to Rear Admiral Pickled Yoda in being named the next Grey Wolf Commodore. He has a long tradition to get used to, I was a GW COM, Gilad was a GW Com, most of the great ASFers were on the GW at one time. Good Luck Yoda (and no pressure :P)

TO banner competition
11:53 - RA Drako
Because we're changing all communication and security systems in the Training Office, I've decided, that my office needs a new banner. The current one is old and doesn't reflect the changes that occured in the Training Office. I want something new, something flashy, something what I would be proud of. If you think you can provide me that, what I want, here are some details:

- dimensions
Banner should be about 460 pixels wide and 60 pixels high.
- size
Not bigger than 25 kb.
- awards
1st place: IS-PR(TC)/SotGV(CD)/GN (DB)/IO (HF)/AS-PR (IS)/VC (IW)/GP (BHG)/MoS-DR (DIR)
2nd place: IS-GR(TC)/SotGM(CD)/SN (DB)/CoD (HF)/AS-GR (IS)/CBV (IW)/SP (BHG)/MoS-PR (DIR)
3rd place: IS-SR(TC)/SotV(CD)/BN (DB)/SoH (HF)/AS-SR (IS)/WRC (IW)/LC (BHG)/MoS-GR (DIR)

All submissions are to be sent to me (to@emperorshammer.org) with topic "TO Banner". Deadline is 30th of December.

       ::  TIE Tattoo Search Competition - Send the best GFX of the whole Emperors Secret Order tattoo (from TIE Fighter) to

Wing Wide 
        ::  New Wing Banner - Currently, we share our logo with the ship.  This sucks, and needs to change.  I know we have some wicked graphic artists out there, so go and do it!  IS-SR & BR will be awarded to the top two entries.  The winner's entry will become the official Wing banner effective January 1st!
 
        ::  Raid-N-Trade - For those of you with Freeworlds... we have two divisions, raiding and trading!  Whoever has the most kills and missions for the month of December wins the Raiding Division, and whoever earns the most money in December wins the Trading Division.  IS-SWs and BWs will be awarded.
 
        ::  Strong Bad Reports #1 - Go to www.homestarrunner.com and look around a bit. Get a good feel for the Strong Bad voice, and go record a Strong Bad version of any TIE Corps report you can find.  The best entry gets an IS-SR, second-best gets an IS-BR.
 
        ::  Strong Bad Reports #2 - For those of you without microphones, you can still pull the strings... Write a "WC Bad Email" (just a stupid question or something, preferrably with bad spelling), and I will answer it in my best Strong Bad voice, which is better than your Strong Bad voice.  If, of course, it doesn't suck.  All emails I use will be awarded IS-BRs, and get attached to certain of my Wing reports.

       ::  Rating Races - FCHG and Combat rating races, except I actually keep track of them
www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=1587

       ::  Deck the Mantis - Write something about my personal ship, the YT-1138 Iron Mantis II.
www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=1637 

       ::  Furnish My Office - No Star Destroyer is complete without a good website. Since I'm loaded down with coursework and don't quite have the time to dedicate to building a website from scratch, I'm opening up the task to any Wing pilot with the know-how and time. This isn't really a competition, but it's something you guys need to do. And be rewarded handsomely.

 

There is a new comp for the whole ship. it is a GFX comp. If the gfx is really good, then it also has a chance of becoming the new Vanguard Banner! Good Luck!
 
Make the COM a Picture!
