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. :)

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.
Makes sense.

It should not be.
Not even in the frames of in-game logic? For example, if one realm swears vassalage to the other realm and the liege-realm wants the vassal-realm to put their banner as a term for the aforementioned vassalage.
You can think about a banner inspired by the Liege-Realm else, some kind of major element that returns to show their vassalage.
Using the exact same banner can be very confusing with the political map and everything.
The liege-realm and his vassal-realms united banners on the political map should exactly be the effect that vassalage should do, for it would show that such relation exists. :) Since there are currently no such relations that are backed by the game mechanics, this is really the only way to tell without having to ask around.
But you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between where one Realm starts and the other ends. That's why I would suggest returning a major element of the banner in the vassal's. That would show a relation, but still allow you to tell the difference.

That would be in-game illogic.
A banner is intended to be unique and identify that holder. Never would you pick the same banner, especially not for a vassal. People could think the servant is the master!
You can force them to adapt the same realm colour. It'll show nicely on the new dynamic map.

Enweil and Fheuv'n.
BTW, the new Terran banner is even sicker than before. It's freaking awesome.

Why thank you.
I wanted to keep the Terran-ness but also make it distinctly Astroist. Turning it blood red seemed a neat way to do it.

Its making me hungry as the icon form looks a bit like a cookie now with sprinkles... or maybe it just looks like that because I was already hungry, idk.

RENOUNCE YOUR BLIND HATRED!
CONVERT!
Woah. Actually...
Totally, convert. That would pretty well hammer Hireshmont's position into a billion tiny pieces.

IDK. I think it would just look fake and opportunistic. Those who are Hireshmont's side would just see it as insincere.
