Avatars for your positions in here
I make it seem like I have all this time on my hands
I know ppl like to use their own avatars, but I find it difficult to know who is who when I am reading the posts. I'm not sure if I am the only one or not but I really felt that it would be better to have appropriate icons.
I don't mind if you use them or not of course, I decided to use egyptian symbols since we are egyptian and also I don't know much about the symbols, but I hope I have matched them to their positions well enough.
If you do decide to use them, let me know and I will upload a zip of the whole lot here.

Hmmmmm.
Go ahead and upload them, I think they're pretty cool and I'll probably use mine.

*Is jealous because of the bottomless talent presented within this fellow*
Man, why can't I be good at anything.
Markos has a good point. You may want to spruce it up a bit with something to identify Apolytonia.

Apolytonia is the official name for our Civ 3 Demo Game nation (not Egypt, I forgot to change the name, forgive me ).

Yeah, since we are playing as Egypt, after all, it wouldn't hurt.
I, for one, wouldn't mind using these avatars, should I be elected.

There's no place to put Apolytonia, but maybe if I change the colours gold and blue to something like gold and red, and the red represents Civ2, and Blue represents Civ3?
I dunno?

doh! I tried it, it doesn't quite work, you either can't tell its a 3, or it hides the picture too much (I made the 3, 5%, 10% and 15%)
What about if I put 3 black stars on both left and right sides of the gold circles and 2 stars for Civ2?

I like. Could there be text that says somewhere that this is the "civ3 demo game" or something similar? Just an idea.

They look great Sn00py.
Mr Pres, I believe those are the Egyptian equivalents of the sceptre and orb of rulership.

Could you post the individual avatars? When I cut out part of it, and past it in a new image (using paint), then save, I lose color info because it's a gif.
