Captain Midnight Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Ahoy mates! I was sitting here wondering how many of you have your own personal Jolly Rogers, and if so, would you share them here with us? I am trying to compile as much info on our members as I can, and I thought it would be fun to see something like that. I was also thinking it might be neat to have a t-shirt design made with all of our flags on the back, and maybe the Order logo on the front at the left breast...similar to the t-shirts you see out there with the historical pirate flags such as Blackbeard's, Thomas Tew's, etc. What do you all think? To start this off, here is my own personal flag: Edited April 18, 2010 by Captain Midnight "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)

Captain Midnight Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 Here you go, Talderoy: Talderoy's flag: "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)
Capt. Sterling Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/
WilloughbyCaught Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 I wish I had a pirate flag of my own. Is there some wonderful artistically inclined brethren out there who could help me design one?
Captain Midnight Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 I wish I had a pirate flag of my own. Is there some wonderful artistically inclined brethren out there who could help me design one? Of course there is! I will help you, Willoughby. If you will describe to me how you want it to look, I will make the graphic for you. "Now then, me bullies!

Braze Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Great idea, I just have the old garden variety skull and cross bones. I will start designing one today. Now where did I leave my crayons? Edited April 18, 2010 by braze
Captain Midnight Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 Great idea, I just have the old garden variety skull and cross bones. I will start designing one today. Now where did I leave my crayons? Very good Braze! If you would like, I could do a computer graphic for your flag too. All you have to do is describe to me how you want it to look, or show me a rough sketch, and I'll put it together for you and submit it to you for your approval. "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls?

Braze Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Thank ya lad. I'll have to put down me mug o rum and try and clear me head ta give it a thought or two.

Captain Midnight Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 Thank you all! We're off to a good start! We've got some awesome flags, I must say! Jeff, those are good pics of your flag! With your permission, I'll take those pics and make a computer graphic of your flag for you and post it here. It may take a day or so, so just give me a little time, ok? Sterling, I love your Archangel flag! For the rest of you who may not have your own flag, I will tell you the same as I told Willoughby and Braze; if you will let me know how you want your flag to look, or show me even a rough sketch or crayon drawing, I can take that and make you all a flag graphic that you can keep for your own use. This will be my gift to any the Devil's Dozen who need one. Just let me know, ok? "Now then, me bullies! Would you rather do the gallows dance, and hang in chains 'til the crows pluck your eyes from your rotten skulls? Or would you feel the roll of a stout ship beneath your feet again?" ---Captain William Kidd--- (1945)
Captain Midnight Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) Here is a graphic I made for Jeff MacKay, based on the pic of his Jolly Roger from the Don Maitz painting above. I used it as a reference because it was the only one that I could clearly see the hilts of the swords in. Jeff, is this acceptable to you? Let me know if you need any changes made, ok?

Margot La Mechante Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) As Co-Captain of The Portland Pirate Festival I'm supposin' that would be the best jolly roger to submit, although it's more of a logo than a Jolly Roger, so not sure it will work for your purposes. Maybe we could simplify it and create a jolly roger from the logo? I'm not very skilled at such things. Hope this shows up.

Captain Midnight Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) Margot, is it the logo with the skull with the roses clenched in its teeth? We could certainly modify it for your use, that would be no problem. Edited April 20, 2010 by Captain Midnight "Now then, me bullies!

Margot La Mechante Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Margot, is it the logo with the skull with the roses clenched in its teeth? We could certainly modify it for your use, that would be no problem. I'm uncertain how to add a pdf here. The logo is on our website My link but it says 5th Annual. I have a version without 5th annual, a bit more plain. How can I send it? Inserting image is not working. Sorry for my stupidity. Too many websites, facebooks, Myspace Music, Twitter, etc. etc and all function differently. I'm a bit illiterate. We also do have a BOOM Jolly Roger but as Navigator of BOOM (not Captain, although I am Captain of the BOOM Bilge Rats - band) it's probably best if we can create a jolly roger from the PPF logo, since I'm actually Captain of PPF.

Captain Midnight Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) Margot, is this the logo you mean? Of course, this one is black and white, but that is of no consequence, as I can digitally color it and edit any of its features to your own specs...
