  1. Taking a break from icon building -bit burned out-but I'll upload a group of 4 icons tonight with their opacity lowered. If the opacity is lowered to 85 from 100 look for a file that says Red Icon-85 in a 7Z zip. I'll PM you when it's done.

      No I didn't know that. :lol:

      Though I am of the opinion the moment you log on or dial your cell you are hopelessly compromised.

      On Greenfish - it's a very simple utility. Layers are a bit different with PaintNet and Paintshop i.e. more work. I found out about the tool in a passing comment in a forum string here. Just play with it. The magic wand is very helpful. I'm sure the French Army had their own tactical signs ! I don't want to use NATO or US icons for French units.

       

      They could use more countries - how hard can it be to put uniforms on the figures?

      Thanks-trying to get everything out by next week as far as a full BETA-Clean everything up when I get back.

      Did 4 icons with an opacity of 75 from 100. The more translucent-the harder they are to see. I think 75 Opacity is a good balance between too bright and too washed out. Look for Italian Red ICONS-75.7z.

      I did the Light Armor, AT Gun , Infantry and Armored Car only in 75 Opacity

      As an aside-I'm sure the next module will have more Italian Army Units to fill out the missing icons-They had flame thrower operators at Tobruk before Sicily (One later missing in action Italian  was decorated) and for sure the Italian Fascists fighting with the Germans and against the partisans and Allies had snipers and Panzerfaust/Panzershrek AT infantry units after 1943.

      That's enough for now.

       

      P.S.-if you want to play with the icons use this tool. Freeware-took me a few days to get the hang of it.

      This mod is much yours as mine-Without you I would not have had a source (remember I looked and couldn't find) and your feedback is essential. I'm surprised if I had done this just for my use how inaccurate it would be.
