This is quite a good news. I can think of several occasion where I can use a rename feature ( especially on Cl and such unit ).
Here it is.
Please be carefull to save it as a GIF file, so that it keeps the transparency information that allow it to look like it have rounded corners. If you're in double, send me an email and I'll send it back to you as an attachment.

I'm curious, wouldn't it be best to have the counters as a 24-bit PNG?  That way you could get smoother definition around the smoothed corners.  I hate GIF so much not because of the limited colors, but you only get a single bit for alpha instead of at least 8.

GIF is for the forums only. Can you post PNG to the forum ?

Ahh I understand now.  Yes you are right, when I was trying to set up an avatar I noticed the same strangeness, for some reason the standard PNG is not permitted.  O_o  So I then went with an old Gif format.  I guess this may be easily fixable by a forum admin.

This is the radar, as this is the night fighter version of the Me262.

Some have high air to air factors (top left number) but this is an orange factor, which means that they are not on even terms with single engine fighters. Note that the Me262 is not an considered orange factor.

Hey buddy, mind throwing me the Jagdpanther? I love the transparancy, but don't know how to set it.

Thx,

I don't know how to do the transparency either, though it might be the limitations of the software I am using.
