Because it's been a few weeks since I last asked, has anyone found the vector Malarbor yet? I promise I'm not making it up! It did exist! I'm not crazy! Right?

Didn't there exist a better version of Malarbor? I'm just asking, because I'm curious. :jesus

Could it be that this is just a .txt-file? I can't open it decently. :(

Maybe our browsers aren't set up for it.

No, it's an SVG.

Firefox and Opera should be able to read it natively; if not, save it to hard drive and open in Inkscape.

I got the impression it was the coat of arms of Scotland. :p

Great CJ, forgive us our impatience! :worship :worship

Derp.

Jonas, we're both right. The base is the arms of HM Elizabeth II as used in Scotland.

We could annex Scotland. Good trade for our losses.

*Ahem*

Anyway, back on topic. For those banners on either side of the helm... what d'you think? Put the national flag on the left, Explosion Flag on the right?

That's an excellent idea! :)
Have we ever made the explosion flag (formally) the banner of His Niftiness? If not, it's perhaps better that we do it.


And: I'm looking for a current version of our coat of arms. I was pretty sure CJ had made one.

CJ made one, but it lacked a few of the traditional elements of the coat of arms.

Because I decided to drop the raster one and start making the vector one.

That doesn't really matter for what I want to do with it, it's just a minor detail in my project but I would like to have it nonetheless. Please, CJ, could you give me the link to the image? :)

I thought you had an other image, but this one is also more then good enough. Thanks, oh Great CJ! :worship :yay:
