embarrassing logo question

from GalCiv2 Forums
I *think* this is the appropriate forum...

I downloaded some race logo's from the site and have failed miserably at implementing them in my dark avatar game. where do they go exactly?

thanks

True, but supplemental comment...

If you create a new custom race WITH any new Logo, it will callup the pre-defined GFX from within its new customracexml file.

But the same Logo image will also & always be into the pool of available graphics since it is located inside the folder mentioned above by LogicSequence.

Putting it anywhere else is just bad file management.

Put in the mentioned folder and make sure(sometimes you have to change these when you download but not always) the logo is a .png and is with in 200x200 measurements (if not 200x200 then 128x128 those are the two sizes I have and they both work)

Oh, and make sure the logo is extracted from anything(like a .zip)

Asking isn't embarrassing, never asking and never knowing is embarrassing.

Yep, but some new Minors Logos intended to be used from within a **MOD folder** aren't exactly for general use like any customized Major defined there either, wouldn't you agree?
