I would like to thank everyone for their input. I must admit my anticipated response, was if the art itself was any good. I didn't consider the political question. When I made the soldier using Canoma, I was working off a WWII photograph, (and yes he was marching in one of those Nazi parades). I just wanted to get it right, never even thought about the arm band. The logo is about as biased as the name, "The Eagle's Nest" check your history books. It just made sense that the allies had nothing in common with "The Eagle's Nest", thus they are not represented in the logo. That is not to say, they are not represented on the site. A list of games with either the box it shipped in, or a photograph is all you will see on my site. Patches, fixes, mods etc. I have afv's from just about every country on my site, including rare Japanese tanks. I'm still working on something to represent every countries flag, that participated in WWII. I had sort of an important question for BTS, I don't know if your familiar, with the game Hidden and Dangerous. But in any event, its a game where you control a team from the SAS, and get sent on missions to kill Germans. I really liked the game immensely, but one thing I noticed about the game, they had flags with swastikas everywhere, they even went as far as putting painting and photographs of Hitler on the wall. I thought it just added to the realism. I'm pretty sure the makers are Brits, is there laws that govern the usage of swastikas in games or is it just designer preference? Just trying to be politically correct? If that is the case, it would be almost impossible to make a WWII based game and leave out the SS or other units of that nature. Finally, a description of the logo in question. The background is a map of the Ardennes offensive aka Battle of the Bulge. The plane is an FW190 D-9 or "Dora". The big menacing thing is a Sturmtiger, I hope it is accurate. I will drop the armband, but the dagger stays, if you pull the dagger out it says "Loyalty is my Honor".........hehe. --------------------------------------------- Be careful what you pretend to be, because in the end, you are what you pretend to be. -Howard W.

Yeah, the guy was made using a program called Canoma. If you look close you can see his SS dagger. Tomb Raider was made with Canoma, maybe I can have him cut Laura Croft's throat.......lol. And yes, I have every intention of puting in a disclaimer, along with every flag from every country that fought in WWII. [This message has been edited by Axis (edited 12-13-2000).]

I'm starting a web page, needed a logo, wanted some feed back on this one. [This message has been edited by Axis (edited 12-13-2000).] [This message has been edited by Axis (edited 12-13-2000).]

Umm, does anyone know what the .bmp number for the flag poles is? I know it sounds anal, but wouldn't a nice chrome or gold flag pole be cool?

As a collector of WWII specific games,I am completely overwhelmed by CM. The community is even more overwhelming, the mods and fixes, are first rate. CM is more reminiscent of HMS Dreadnought, the first in her class. With more modifications, and the use of the latest technology, she should look like an Iowa Class battleship soon. The whole "We Go" principal, will soon be implemented by Pc game designers everywhere, "monkey see, monkey do". I know people will always have opinions, on what they think is the best WWII game. I look at WWII games a bit differently. Because of the severe lack of any Pc games in the WWII genre, we should praise, any effort, by any company, that even attempts to get off a half way decent game. Bashing of certain games is unjustified. Of course, some WWII games stand well above the rest, CM is a perfect example. Without the trials and errors, of other WWII games, where would CM be? Big Time Software, did something very rarely done, they listened to the gamers, and paid attention to detail. They didn't rush, they opted for perfection. How many WWII games have you bought that could have been gems, but the Big Bosses wanted the game out yesterday? Designers that create WWII games are under constant pressure, will the WWII game even sell being the biggest. With that said, please be thankful for any WWII games, society would rather shoot aliens. --------------------------------------------- Be careful what you pretend to be, because in the end, you are what you pretend to be. -Howard W.

There are so many, where do I start? I just want the most popular or "best looking ones". So, in your opinion who has the best mods...thnx
