Now we need a Bungie themed wallpaper!

It's really nice to see someone who put something together that isn't selfiish about it and crap.

You did an amazing job. I'm saving this thread.

Fantastic work, I've been looking for .pngs of the emblems for a while. Cracking job!

First of all they look awesome. So thanks a lot for that. I'm sure loads of people in the community can put them to use (myself included). And you did this for the community. That a pretty selfless thing to do, so thanks again.

Good job!

EDIT: Just noticed the desktop wallpapers you have put up to. They are also pretty nice, although I am currently sporting Vic at the moment.

Wow. :O They're awesome. You've inspired me to try vector imaging.

I created a few Halo 2 medals a while back, though they were raster. Is it easy to use vector graphics for things like this? And one last thing: Is that font ITC Conduit? If so, where did you get it?!

Ah, look at the lonely people...

Can you make a .ZIP or .RAR archive of all the high-resolution PNGs and upload that?

Also, can we have a .png of the Marathon Logo-in-olive branches emblem on the wallpapers?

This is amazing, you're my hero.

I don't suppose it would be too much to ask for a Septagon logo? It's tough to find a good image of one.

On another note, in the off-hand chance that he doesn't check this thread in a while, I suggest we PM him or something.

Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you all had happy and safe holidays! I saw that the thread got stickied on the Halo 3 forum, which is very cool. Just to answer a few questions:

Graphics like these, although displayed in a raster form on the screen, are inherently vector in nature. So yes, it is easier to draw these in a vector illustration program (Illustrator) rather than a raster program (Photoshop). And yes, the font is ITC Conduit, and I bought it from MyFonts.com, and you'll probably want the medium weight, although the light weight is also useful (I bought all three, but not the italic versions).

Done, and done! I've updated the original post so that it now contains links to the wallpapers and the extra tid-bits I put together since first release. There's a ZIP archive link at the top of the insignia list, and the olive branch Marathon logo is now listed at the bottom of the list.

You know, I had one somewhere; I'll look around but if I can't find it I'll redraw one because I agree that it'll be useful. Also coming down the pipe is the UNSC logo and a proper Spartan logo. I'm curious to see if there's interest in the medals as well, as they have already been drawn fairly nicely by the folks over at High Resolution Halo, but are not in vector format. It'd be a lot of work, but if folks would like them, I'd be more than happy to oblige.


Thanks everyone!

Re-drawing the medals would be way too much work Beorn.

beorn's rank vectors are much better than what they have at HRH.

I think I'll use these in photoshop to see what it would be like if we had our rank on our left shoulder in game. I'll post a link when it's finished.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

Wow, these are really amazing. I already palced the widescreen image with all the ranks listed as my default desktop. It can be really difficult to find good widescreen desktops but you solved my problem! Great job and amazing work. I hope to see more work like this by you in the future.

I like them all, except make the Brigadier one beveled. It's too flat.

Interestingly, I struggled a bit on the Brigadier when I put these together. It does seem consistent that it should have a bevel to make it more 3-dimensional like the others, but while drawing them I wasn't entirely sure it actually did. It seems to me that the Brigadier insignia "pin" has a flatter surface than the others so as to not detract from its already complicated shape, so I went with the non-beveled version instead.

In any case, I went ahead and quickly tried a version with the bevel anyway. :-) Let me know what you think...
Brigadier (beveled)

I really like that idea, actually. The other place it might work is on the left breastplate, but I think the shoulder would be more consistent.

Well I have it in a raw .fla(flash) format. And yes it is vector too. I use Macromedia Flash Proffessional 8 to make it. I had originally inteded to use it on a flash based website I was making, but I'd be happy to make a thread for it.

here's a pic of it now

I tried really hard to get it all lined up. It could use some polish before it's done.

Very very nice, i'm currently attempting this through Raster Graphics, using Photoshop CS3. Congrats on making the ranks.

Okay, the amazing Miguel Chavez over on the HBO forums provided a copy of the original 7th Column logo artwork, and Louis Wu posted it for everyone. I thought I'd let you know here in case you don't read both forums. Woot!

And thanks for those links to the 7th Column Logo. I've been looking for those too.
