Dragoon Knight Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Those are really good. How about some with the Emperor: Battle for Dune House Emblems? I know I'd use the Atreides crest as my sig, since my old one no longer fits. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Would it be possible to make some slimmer ones, like these ones (sorry, I can't hotlink the images)?http://www.userbars.org/img49865.search.htmhttp://www.userbars.org/img49864.search.htmhttp://www.userbars.org/img49863.search.htmIf we could get one that size, saying Fed2k - World's largest Dune fansite, with different House logos on, that would be good. What programmes do you use to make these Thumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D2k Sardaukar Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I create the images in The Gimp (free), I used to work with Photoshop. I personally think I could create better looking images in Photoshop because of the advanced layer effects options, but the trial version has ended a long time ago and I'm getting better at The Gimp. Any way, here is a test userbar, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I like those banners, especially the one with the missile tank (I used those zealously when I still played D2k) I think I'll start using that one on other forums that I visit.I think you might want to make a few with material not from D2K or the other games, though. This site is about more than just the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 There's new News up there guys.Also, do we still need money for the server?http://dune2k.com/SiteInfo/SupportUs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I asked about the donations earlier, and I do not think so. Although I'm guessing donations are still welcome?http://forum.dune2k.com/index.php?topic=8493.3600Reply #3601 on: Saturday, May 19, 2007 12:43:14 PMGob says not needed for now.EDIT:Wow, I thought I asked that a month ago, not a year ago.

nemafakei Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I'm glad to report it's perfectly possible to use FED2k on a PDA. And it looks nice. Now to see if I can play Dune II on this thing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanguard3000 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Hmph. The OS (Windows Mobile 6) won't let me play Dune II.Man, that would have been a fun game to play on my PDA (Dell Axim X51v/Windows Mobile 5). Did you find a version that was supposed to work?If you're looking for something to pass the time, you can find X-Com (A.K.A. UFO: Enemy Unknown) for Windows Mobile.

Gobalopper Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 For those of you asking about donations no they aren't required anymore like when we needed to purchase our own server to stay online. Now we are hosted by Dreamhost and the cost for that was around $300 for 3 years which is much more manageable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahdi Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 How much of a dent do the google ads take out of that? Fifteen cents? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Last time I got a payment from the ads was November 2006 which happens when your account balance reaches $100. Although we don't show ads as much as we used to either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 From what I remember ads are disabled for registered users. So for all you lurkers sign up and see no ads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Can we have a poll on the main page? I tried posting one in the news board, but it didn't appear as a poll on the main page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I noticed a new member named Vladik made a post but it is now in the dungeon. Did a mod send it there or did the user delete it themselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 The answer to that is in the Lurkers Anonymous thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Well, no, not really. I moved it from the Dungeon to the Lurkers Anonymous thread, but I don't know who sent it to the Dungeon in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
