This is a place where I would take a more stylized, 2d approach. Something, for example, that could be drawn on a ships hull.

And I'll ask this one again in the hopes...
In the FS2 opening movie you can see the squadron logo on the Herc. You know: the Burning Pheonix sitting on Earth surrounded by the GTA Coat of Arms.
Personally I think it is one of the best squad insignias alive. It just beams 'ELITENESS' of it.
Isn't anyone interested in making that one as beautifull as DeathAngel Logo?

Couldn't have said it better myself, but it's gotta be said, darn that's cool! That's like the best logo I've ever seen, but not convenient to stick on the side of the ship. Be a shame to lose all that detail. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Command: We're calling in support! Power up your emergency defences and hold the fort while they wait until you've been blown up to show up just a little too late! Who wrote this? That belongs in the actions script, not the dialogue script!
Capship: Engineering, this is it. Launch the documents!!
[huge cloud of paperwork spills out of ship and surrounds it]
Command: Support will be here any time now... who am I kidding? That stopped the invasion!
Capship: It's been nice knowing you, command. I think I'll stay and watch everything stop moving... yeah, really, who designed this campaign???

It's nothing too fancy, just a pair of human red eyes against a black disc (and whatever other cool embelishments you might want to throw in). I'm naming this squad the "91st Evil Eyes". I might use this logo for a mini-campaign I'm working on.

I'll toy round with it today and slap something up here for you ok? I'll do up a "poster" version as well as on ship version.

Its possible beams are totally ineffective against paper. Might have been some unknown property.

And here we have Alpha One getting caught in the Sathanas forward beam. Not the particularly anguished expression.

I would need squad logos too for the briefing anis, but I don't have the time and the skills to do them. Oh well (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

1. connect to Internet, bring up browser
2. Look for theme of squad (i.e. "explosion" "fighter" "hot raging mammas"
3. Spend all of 15 minutes looking at various fanpages, nerds' personal sites, etc. for GIF or QuickTime movie
4. Steal. If necessary, touch up (add squad #, etc.)
5. convert to .ani
Takes a little longer than making your own, but hey... if ya don't wanna make something, the internet is where you go. This has so far worked in about 2 cases for me, and I only rarely use other peoples' stuff because it is invariably not as good as mine.

That would be neat, but for now, apart from the Top squadron, I don't have think about squadrons yet. Mmh, something to talk about in the private forum (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
