Theta Fleet Forums

Good morning, afternoon, evening or night depending on your geographical location. As of today 01/01/2012 I am asking all members of Theta Fleet to voice opinions on the new award system that I propose in co-ordination with monthly reports and the command staff.

All the following awards have been taken off the Integrated Fleet System (IFS) and I have spent the last few hours making up some nice looking images for them. All images will be uploaded to the IFS shortly and I would like the CO's to start using them.

Below are the proposed new images for all level 1 images. Level 2 and Level 3 images will be ready for shortly. Please watch out for the other levels coming within the next few days.

So let me know what you all think :)

To be quite frank, I prefer the old, ribbon-style awards. They're...well, ribbons. They make more sense, even though your images are quite nice, so I'd prefer staying with the ribbons :)

Oh my! Emily, I quite like the images you've created; they're rather spectacular to be quite honest. It's their very uniqueness that helps to differentiate Theta Fleet from among the many other Star Trek role-playing game fleet's throughout the web. In fact, most merely rely on the ribbon-style and have yet to boldly venture out into the creative realm in which you stepped out into. I'm very excited to see what you and Will are coming up with at this very moment. :) Fantastic work!
