:lol:

Nice one.

However...

Piccie must be 256x128 and in .png format (not gif)

Could I suggest that you make the small "...soothing..." etc. writing a little larger - when this ad is viewed in-game it can be huge and that writing isn't going to stand up to close inspection.

Just gone back through the thread.

We've got 28(ish) ads - and a couple of broken links!

We'd have 30 if Stromboli had fixed his "planet needs you" ad but not heard from him since and toconns ad is currently in the wrong format and the wrong size.

Toconn - if you're reading this - do you plan on fixing the add yourself?

So after that initial blast it looks like Ark was going to be right about it taking 6 months for a full set of ads to be produced :? :roll: I've got a few more flavours from MooCooy's to do and a couple of other ideas but RL(tm) keeps getting in the way.

(besides I might yet pick up Zorg Racing if I can make "British Racing Green" thrilling enough to excite the senses of my Oolite-alter-ego...)

I actually wanted to call it "Mama Wagar" - but I couldn't work out what font they used for the logo and therefore couldn't source the necessary 'r'.

And Ahruman, god of indentifying fonts, is long-term MIA. :(

It's no replacement for Ahruman but http://www.identifont.com/ can sometimes be useful. I think the best bet for the logo font is probably Folio Condensed – although Impact makes a decent substitute.

For the font geeks out there, I have to say: how cool is this?

Folio Condensed or more precisely Folio Condensed Medium seems to be pretty much on the money - I've borrowed an 'r' - do you think they'll mind?
