Are those Fallschirmjäger symbols really yours? Because they look exactly like mine. I also wonder what these last two officers are?
The Fallschirmjäger Symbols are from somewhere of the internet no clue where i have found them i have them since years on my HDD
edit: @Celéstial: but if these symbols are yours then i have to apologize and a might ask you if i could keep them up here or should i remove them from the pack?
but im pretty sure you would forgive me if i give you a credit on this pack ... **don't punch me**
these 2 Officers are SS ranked ... its there Symbol from the collar
Sturmbannführer and Untersturmführer if im right

Oh man, do not post unknown stuff here, this will end in endless discussions and sometimes, in banning or leaving the forum.

Well it would be fine to use it if I was 100% sure it's actually mine. I know BotB has a very simular to it, almost identical, as I think it's made from the same image...
Anyway I don't know which one you took, but I recommend removing it, and try creating your own one, as we can't be sure. I'm sorry.
Have fun whit this Update
I gonna make some Unit Icons for US soon

Some are nice, but I'd avoid using real photographs like model kits to create your icons, unless you are a talented with Photoshop. If you are, then you could make them fit more into CoH, because right now they stand out a lot.
Mhmm, in offense to @Cel, I like especially those better looking tank icons. The originals from CoH are looking mostly boring, because none of them are using a skin.
#13
Correct, but to create an icon fitting to your mod, I recommend taking a screenshot of the tank in Worldbuilder (with green or blackscreen applied), and then create the icon from there.
Yepp, that's right, this way it fits really better. But on the other hand, not everybody is an artist enough or willing to do it, so this could be a good compromise, I think.
some of them you have to see ingame ^^ they look realy nice
Little Update
#17
The Falls icons look nice, and it's a good idea to include call-in variants with the little "+" symbol as well.
Yeah lot of ppl ask for Ability icons
just adding a "+" is very simple whit Gimp so no problem
Isn't the FJ flamethrower squad a nice suggestion for your icons? :P
"If everyone smoked a blunt, relieve the mind, the world could be a better place."
hehe here's a normal Flamethrower now
Nice icons. Im really interested in the special units icons. @WangTangManPro, would you mind explaining what units they are?
The F guys are the Flamers, 3rd pic is US Specialist and last one is US Technician
Nice, but why the flamer guys not have a flame instead of and F?
hmmm interesting point :P maybe next time :P
LoL, I also recommend you make some new Commonwealth\British icons to spice up your icons collection.
ok the new Flamer Icons are done ... but i will upload them when i have created more icons ... and for the British guys... i have no idea they're not realy my faction mabye i'll create some officer ranks
but at this point theres alot of work to do till next release some more Ability icons 'n Stuff
-----------
ok after a full day of work here we go

Hey, hope you don't mind having some (constructive) critism. Some of your icons are interesting (like the US Specialist), but most of them are pretty visible that it's copy-paste work (meaning that the coloring is very different, camera angle, lighting and such). This makes the icon look pretty messy overall. I'm not here to bash your work, as everyone has a different taste of what is good looking, and you certainly are improving your skills over time, but there's some stuff you have to keep in your mind while creating icons. One important thing that I would recommend is that you should try to create your own style in icons, making everything fit together instead of making some random icons with all different looks and coloring. Some icons may look great individually, but when it's next to an icon of a whole different style then it might look a bit strange. For example if you look at your Fallschirmjäger pack: this is nice to use, as they all are pretty simular and make sense to what they should be used for (and you could even simplify them by removing the eagle on the HMG, Mortar and Sniper, as everyone would recognize the Fallschirmjäger portrait). Now if you take some of the photograph icons like the Heer, Waffen SS, Photograph of Hitler(?!) and such don't really make sense what they should be used for and in my personal taste don't fit really into CoH. I'd avoid photographs in CoH, rather create screenshots in Worldbuilder using the Green/Blackscreen mode and create an icon from there. The flamer icon is pretty strange as well if I'm really honest. Why would you create that white diamond around it? If you took the black-white flame itself and place it in the top left corner it would look much better, as it would fit more into the rest of the vanilla style icons. Another trick is to open several vanilla icons and try to merge them together. Relic GUI designs are so awesome that with a good copy-paste job you can create new ones very easily. For example, if you take the Stormtrooper, Grenadier and HMG team icons, and then take the Stormtrooper body, put the Grenadier face/helmet on it and then the HMG team face into the Grenadier face, you'll create a whole new looking unit in the vanilla style. This is how I (more or less) create my own unique vanilla style icons.
im not using all of these icons for myself... some i've just created for the comunity thats why im using different styles... and this Picture of the Führer is the new *For the Fuhrer* icon... makes sence eh?
btw the pictures have *transparent* parts so they're not fully visible ingame (like the Führers backround or the lower part of the SS-Propaganda icon)
the Diamond for the Flamers is inspired by the *Flamable symbol* on different stuff seen arround in RL
