American Flag Star Request

[Chrissiest Chris]

I've tried doing it myself but it's really hard since the stars are so small, and doing a bigger version then resizing it doesn't work either. I just want a small, simplified version of the American flag onto a ProBoards star for the member ranks.

Chrissiest Chris , Would it be possible for you to post what you tried so we can get an idea what size you want and kind of how you want it to look?

[Chrissiest Chris]

Here's what I tried, it's just a resized version of an American flag star. It's not bad, I could settle for it, but it's not quite what I'm looking for. I want something a little more simple, like this.



And I want it to be the same size and shape as a regular ProBoards star so, 16x16.

Actually, I think your star looks pretty good. At 16x16 you are going to get much better than that. I tried doing one more simple, but yours looks better, lots better, imo. It was hard to get the white to show (in case you had a white background it would not look like a star at all) so adding dark pixels around the white makes the point look square.

I tried moving where the white is located and still ran into trouble....just not enough pixels to work with.

I think that is why the skinny stripes work better so you get more definition in the points.  Sorry, I tried but I think you are better off going with the one you have OR you can wait to see if anyone else can do better than either of us.

I think it looks fine, although I do agree my version looks a little bit better. I think a red outline would look better to be honest. Thanks though!

I hope it's okay that I gave this request a try.

 
These two stars have slightly different size blue sections on them.

[Chrissiest Chris]

They're great. I think I'll use the one with the bigger blue area. Thanks a lot!

You're welcome.
