Fox Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Ahhhh... not all of us Limeys are stiffs. ^_~ ::grin:: LOL! No disrespect intended, but considered the massive Gibraltar force and the really huge Jolly Roger, they shoulda called us at least via radio and asked us if everything was shipshape! Well since there's no law about flying Jolly Rogers at sea there's really no reason why they should have been bothered. You clearly weren't pirates (what real pirate would fly a jolly roger past Gib?) so they probably had better things to do.

William Brand Posted July 24, 2005 Author Posted July 24, 2005 tis a lovely flag, very cool looking. wanted to design a flag, but i think a boat or crew would be a good idea first, or at least one other pirate. i havent even finished my garb yet. You don't need a crew, ship or garb to have a flag. You just need an insane and unexplainable desire to fly a flag and stand beneath it shouting bucket loads of 17th century jargon to the hills. The rest will come in time.
Captain Jim Posted July 24, 2005 Posted July 24, 2005 Good morrow ,Master Red Wake. Pray tell, who is it that be doin' yer graphic work? 'Tis marvelous fine, no jagged edges an' all. I 'ave a flag in two versions, one wi' a 1816 navy cutlass (see me avatar), and the same flag wi' a Jack Rackham style blade. Now I needs ta know how ta make 'em look as smoothe as yers. Any hints 'r suggestions'l earn ye a great flaggon o' rhum, both 'ere in th, Pub an' maybe down Key West way. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
William Brand Posted July 24, 2005 Author Posted July 24, 2005 It would be my pleasure sir to recreate the flag for you. Please send me the largest version of it that you have to william@towerravens.com and I will recreate it for you. You can buy me lunch at PIP this December.
Captain Jim Posted July 24, 2005 Posted July 24, 2005 We, sir, 'ave an accord. 'Tis on it's way. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
William Blydes Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 M' hat's off to you William. That be some fine, fine work. Any ship honour'd to fly your work would strike the most dreadful fear in any a victim. William Blydes I don't get lost, I EXPLORE! Adventures on the High Seas (refitted and back on station!)

Charity Posted August 29, 2005 Posted August 29, 2005 Just tonight i made a jr on the pc for myself with tubes i made myself (for psp) out of pics of Barbossa, and my own dagger. It's not cotton but it's a jolly roger just the same Well, with a little imagination..
tishsparrow Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Cool! i need to learn to photoshop. i tried to post my brother's flag on, but it apparently is the wrong type of file, so... but its a cool flag, looks like the union jack but has a white background, black stripes like this + across it and red like this x on top, with a skull in the middle. pretty good, considering he's only 12. better than the one he wanted with the monkey and the eyepatch.
Charity Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 Thanks, the silver one is now my official logo on my domain. Your brothers flag sounds very cool! You should be able to save it as other file, you open it and then simply resave it. It would be great to see it :) I make everything in paint shop pro, just as good but soooooo much easyer, and have you noticed EVERYWHERE on internet there's free tubes, sparkles, filters etc etc etc and tutorials but for photoshop there isn't too much. I love psp!

Captain Midnight Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 Here's me own 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)
Tall Paul Posted September 19, 2005 Posted September 19, 2005 ...cute idea, but $45.00 to register my flag........... I don't think so....... That'll be why they have only 8 flags registered. None of which appear in this thread. What makes it "Official"? Cpt "Tall Paul" Adams Colchester Historical Enactment Society (C.H.E.S.)
William Brand Posted January 5, 2006 Author Posted January 5, 2006 Ambassadors of Chaos flying the Wetlanders flag at Fort Taylor. It was fun bringing a little Disorder to Key West.
Stynky Tudor Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 William, OMG Disorderly Ambassadors of Chaos - I love this!Wait, what the... are the crossed bones made of bacon?
William Brand Posted February 5, 2006 Author Posted February 5, 2006 It's funny that you should ask, because they might as well be. The Wetlanders started an annual 'Baconfest' in '92, making us one of the first two Baconfests in all of existence. When we formed the Wetlanders our credo and rules for membership were simple..."We have to like you and you have to like Bacon".
