Banner Approval?
« Topic Start: April 04, 2013, 07:20:34 AM »
How long does it generally take a banner to get approved?

I uploaded the banner and my realm needs a banner because morale keeps dropping because we don't have one. How long should it take for it to get approved?

Also, when I try to select it it doesn't show on the banner page and when I select "set banner" it says it is already assigned for my realm, but yet doesn't actually show up for my realm. Confused.

I believe a day max. Also, you can't resubmit until your current banner is approved or not. Until it is approved though, it will not show up anywhere.

Well, it's usually longer than 20 minutes, especially when you upload it in the middle of the night. Yeesh.

In any case, the banner you uploaded was bloody enormous. Please read the banner guidelines: it should be no more than 200px in either dimension.

If you scale it down so that its larger dimension is 200px, and upload it again, I expect I can approve it relatively quickly.

I figured. Was just wondering how long it took in general is all.  :)

Done.

You been making some of the recent banners? If so thanks for contributing the game in a special way.

I made the Heorot banner using Thalmarkin's as a base. (Heavy editing.) I made the banner in this thread as well, but all I had to do was remove the stuff around the shield and add in what should have been there. (So the banner itself existed, but I did the work necessary for the tiny version.) Truth be told, this was harder than the first!

For me, it's just helping me train on picture editing. :)

Is it possible for two realms to use the same banner in the same time on the same continent?

Eirikr, if you are looking for more work I would certainly be interested to see what you could do for Eponllyn ;)

It should not be.

How is Eponllyn these days? It was so dull I paused my character there last year some time. Things pick up at all?

We are at war with Perdan.

Armonia looted Perdan lands, so Perdan decided to teach Armonia a lesson by going on a murderous raping tour through Eponlyn.
