Rank Icons for Gregales (legionaries)

[JRSCline]

Unfortunately EZboard does not have a feature where User Levels can have special rank icons automatically associated with them.<br>
<br>
However, there is a work-around.<br>
<br>
When you advance a level, right-click on one of the choices for your rank (such as the Gregales below) and get the Properties for the image link, which you then must manually input as your Personal Photo (Control Center, then Profile to change). From then on, your new icon will be added to every post. Easy as that.<br>
<br>
Here're the icons you can choose from once you reach Gregalis at 5 posts (all nicknamed for ease of reference):<br>
<br>
Gaius <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/568/59/25685916.jpg"><br>
<br>
Lucius <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731383.jpg"><br>
<br>
Sextus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731384.jpg"><br>
<br>
Gnaeus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731385.jpg"><br>
<br>
Marcus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731386.jpg"><br>
<br>
Titus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731387.jpg"><br>
<br>
Quintus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731395.jpg"><br>
<br>
Publius <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731396.jpg"><br>
<br>
Aulus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/13/25731397.jpg"><br>
<br>
Tiberius <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/16/25731628.jpg"><br>
<br>
Decimus <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/16/25731626.jpg"><br>
<br>
Octavius <img src="http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/573/16/25731627.jpg"><br>
<br>
DO NOT use an icon whose rank you have not yet reached. That's a serious military offense punishable by 25 whacks with the centurion's vitis (rod). Incorrigibles will be subjected to the fustarium, painful teasing to death at the hands of other milites.<br>
<br>
If you would rather use a picture of your own, that's fine, but it must be no larger than 60x60 pixels.<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>

Ah, but I can, and there you are. Or were! Just call it my veto, if you will.<br>
<br>
And having said that, I will proceed to tidy up this thread, which has gotten a bit out of hand. Let us adjourn the icon-ographic humor to Off-Topic. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub45.ezboard.com/ujrscline.showPublicProfile?language=EN>JRSCline</A> at: 1/23/01 11:18:20 pm<br></i>

I meant our post count rather than the actual posts.<br>
<br>
I'm not here<br>
<br>
I never said this <p>It's not a bug, it's a feature</p><i></i>

[Anonymous]

Just seeing if my icon has worked ('an't vanity great). <p></p><i></i>

[Anonymous]

Bolloicus farticus, it's not shown for me anyway just that little box in the box. <p></p><i></i>

You know, you should use the *preview* feature in order to your test your images, so we don't have alot of these..."testing", "oops" and "dag-nabbitt, where's my pic?!" posts. Much ado about nothing. <p>...or not.</p><i></i>

[Anonymous]

seeing as my posts are now over 5, I could use any icon from gaius to Octavius? <p></p><i></i>

[Catiline]

Yep, just enter it's url for your image in preferences. <p>It's not a bug, it's a feature</p><i></i>

[Anonymous]

My pic won't come up and it's absolutely driving me nuts.<br>
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?<br>

Hi Quintus,<br>
It's not that difficult. Just right click on the picture you want, copy the location's properties (including http://) and paste it into your profile.<br>
I tried just now with the first picture above and it works. This is it's location: http://images.honesty.com/imagedata/h/5 ... 685916.jpg <br>
<br>
Hope it works now. Good luck!<br>

Thanks Jasper,<br>
Unfortunately, even though I believe I understand what you're saying, I can't get it to work. I still come up with an empty box. <p></p><i></i>

[Praefectusclassis]

So I see, somehow the adress-properties of your picture are incorrect. Have you tried copying the adress from my previous post, just to see if it works?<br>

Yes, I did try that. No, luck though. I can't understand what the problem is.<br>
