Title: BF2 Server graphic size/format?
Post by: Ranger on January 02, 2006, 11:21:40 AM
Just for fun I would like to try designing some server graphics (the picture that appears at the bottom right of the server browser telling you about the server and who owns it).

I particularly wanted to experiment with text telling potential guests about some of the rules on the server (as I think it is fairer to give people an idea about rules BEFORE they get into the server - and the graphic seems to be a way of doing this).

So can someone tell me about the graphic preferred size and format (jpg, gif, png?) please?

- Also, Admin, just for curiosity, how hard is it to change the graphic? The reason I ask is that we *could* put up a different graphic to advertise what game format we are playing on a particular day (sometimes guests seem to get a bit confused when they drop in to find us playing; 'jeeps only', 'infantry only', 'everything goes', etc).

Cheers...

Ranger

See here (http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=11727) for info on graphic size/format (there is even a blank to download)

Changing which picture we use is real easy, we can do it remotely

Wrong post BB  :P

You want this one ...

http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10022 (http://forum.deadmen.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10022)

Sizes are 400x100 for both the server and sponsor graphic.

It appears that we can have different URLs for each profile we run so changing gfx should be easy.

Let's see 'em, Ranger :)
