A call for support creating VG Post Cards (need by Sunday!)

[=VG= BLuDKLoT]

Here's a chat I had with our friend Jerry from ArmA 3. Please read the chat and if you can help, please post your intent here, thank you.


Jerry: 3:34pm
are u awake?

VG: yo sup

Jerry: hey hey
i need ~3 Veterans-Gaming/ArmA themed postcards.
could you produce these before sunday?
its for a community initiative, cant say much more about it, except the resolution must be 800x600 or a multiple of that.
the postcards can be submitted here : helpivanmartin@gmail.com

VG: I will try my best any special style?

Jerry: it should have the community name/logo on it.
its should arma themed.
it could be a funny card, or just showing of your mods/addons etc.
NO POLITICAL MSG (related to greece ) is allowd.
by monday, you'll understand where its for. ( but you can guess it by now i think )

VG: ok I'll ask my community as see what we can do. I have no talent personally, but we have lots of kind souls that help VG so maybe they can do something. I will ask them via our Forums

Jerry: great!
keep an eye on helpivanmartin.org ( on Sunday )

VG: you bet man, we're always following

Jerry: i'll go bother more people now THANKS

VG: ok, lol. see ya

Can you help us make some Post Cards?

[PITN]

So do we have any theories as to what it is for?

And can we get the transparent PNG's of the logos and banner so we can play in GIMP?

[Nowherrmann]

Betcha they're being sent to Ivan and Martin to show them how much the community cares (hence no political messages about Greece and such). I'd help out but alas, I am no artist.

[=VG= BLuDKLoT]

It's secret he couldn't really say, but it's all in the chat we had. If I had PS I would try it.

[=VG= Wooz2770]

Ahh man, if i had my pc right now, i could make a card or two. Ill see what i can do once i get home:)

[=VG= BLuDKLoT]

cool man, make sure they in-line with what Jerry asked for :)

[=VG= Gaz]

damn dude - If i'd seen this yesterday... I have Photoshop in school and a teacher that would have given me a hand with it but... Got concusion yesterday playing rugby, so i couldent go into school today... Damn dude wish i could have tried..

[=VG= SemlerPDX]

Okay, I don't have photoshop, and I suck at this kind of stuff - but I had this pic from Saturday's event with Outlanders and Wooz in my AT Fireteam. Perfect photo for a postcard. Oh, and I realize it's on the custom map Fallujah, but seeing as how that's a mod, I put the title as Takistan (who's gonna know?).

I had to use MS Publisher and then use MS Snipping Tool to actually capture the mat. I'd love it to be included in the 3 to be sent to Jerry:

[lupago]

But Semler, thats fake publicity... THATS FALLUJAH! :@ xD

[=VG= Wooz2770]

well...as it turns out i don?t have photoshop or my microsoft package any more, so someone better get started, while i try to locate my 100% totally legal "installers".

[=VG= SemlerPDX]

Point well taken. Jerry did say "mods/addons etc."
And we say "false advertising" not "fake publicity" here in the States. !lol

Here (was) the title as Fallujah (2nd revision):
Please use the next photo with ACRE/Blastcore

And another with ACRE and Blastcore Mod Logos:


And here the postcards in an .rar file:
arma2postcardsvg.rar

PITN LAN_WROTE ...

And can we get the transparent PNG's of the logos and banner so we can play in GIMP?

Here's an .rar of VG logos in png and various other formats (can be converted to PNG w/MSPaint):
vg_logos_and_imgs.rar

It's probably for a show of community support on the save the Devs website.. from what I've read Jerry has been pretty involved with organizing this stuff.

[=VG= Outlanders]

Looks good Semler. I think we need more.

[=VG= Murderface0151]

the only thing i could think of lol.

[=VG= BLuDKLoT]

love em gents, great work IMO!

[=VG= Fastjack]

Maybe we can make tomorrow (event) an ingame group picture with a nice background with all of us.

A group picture where some of us secure an area and 2 of us carrying 2 civis out of the dangerous area (symbolic for the 2 devs).
With a tag like " all coming home no one stay behind" or else?

[=VG= Eclipse002]

[=VG= Wooz2770]

^Fuckin. Awesome.

But you should probably have a second copy ready, one that doesn?t have "Leave no man behind", since it?s a pretty clear that it?s directed towards the two developer?s. (the no political message thing and all).
maybe if you used "Semper Fidelis" or some other military quote?

but great job clippy:D

[=VG= Murderface0151]

yeah Clippy, thats great. shoots my p.o.s out of the water hahah. well done sir :)

[=VG= Murderface0151]

Since we've had a lack of submissions, I've gone ahead and made another one as well:

If anyone else was working on one of these, you should wrap it up asap and get it posted here. Today is the final day...

Awesome pics, everyone!
