Fujai Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Hello, and welcome to Fujaian Designs, formerly Flags by Fujai, a graphic design service run by yours truly, Fujai (pronounced foo-'jay or foo'yay). While this service began with flags, it has since expanded to include regional themes, branding (for nations, storefronts, or anything else), maps, seals, badges, awards, coats of arms, banners, and any other type of graphic design! To request a design, simply send me a telegram, forum PM, or a Discord message at Smithy876#6074. I ask that you include what you would like, any ideas you have, such as color or style, and what it will be used for. After I send you a first draft, let me know if there is anything you would like to change—I encourage constructive criticism so that I can make you the best product possible. You can see a gallery of my work at my dispatch here. A couple notes: My only request is that after I've made you a design (assuming that you like it), you point people in my direction if they ask about it or need something designed. Programs I use, if you're curious: For designing, I mainly use Adobe Illustrator (95%), Adobe Photoshop (4%), and FlagMaker (1%). Free alternatives to Illustrator and Photoshop are Inkscape and GIMP. If you are a student or work for a university or large company, you probably have some sort of discount for Adobe products. If you don't have a discount, they charge ridiculously exorbitant prices for much the same functionality as the free alternatives. ColorBrewer.org is a great utility for making scientifically tested color schemes for maps and other forms of data visualization. Color.adobe.com is also a useful tool for making color schemes. I use Instant Eyedropper to sample the color of any pixel on my screen, and Image Resizer for Windows to resize my images easily. This will always be a completely free service.

Mediobogdum Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Wonderful offer, Fujai, thank you and I hope you get lots of business! Don't want you wasting your time doing RL stuff now, do we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malviet Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Hey Fujai, I was wondering if you could create an emblem for the Foreign Affairs Ministry. The requirements are: * round seal design(like the Great Seal of the United States) * has a Rising Sun in the middle * the motto would be: 'All Your Base Belong To Us' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediobogdum Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 How does this look? http://imgur.com/D8Mvviz I can change it round if you like it or not. Not sure I understand the "All your base belong to us"? Should it say "bases"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujai Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 Not sure I understand the "All your base belong to us"? Should it say "bases"? I believe it's a reference to an old 16-bit game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediobogdum Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Malviet, The reference to "all your base" seems a bit obscure, at least to me anyway Perhaps all your "chocolate" might be fun? Medio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mediobogdum Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Thanks Hari, now I understand From your source: "All your base are belong to us" is a broken English phrase found in the opening cut scene of the 1991 video game Zero Wing which became a popular Internet meme. The quote is included in the European version of the game, which features poorly translated English from the original Japanese version. I hope that this subtle motto will not be lost on too many of the 'older' NS players, like me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujai Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I used to have a web page for making NS based flags - mostly animated, and other graphics. Alas after a few successful years the call for any graphics waned and I closed shop. I hope interest in home-made flags and graphics revives and you have a productive time in TWP and NS in general. I wish you good luck and any help I can give you. The flag request thread on the NS forums is fairly active, but I'd much rather see more small time local makers getting most of the customers. If there were some sort of advertisement area I could use...that would be helpful. Maybe I'll look into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedy Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 This is the sort of stuff I used to do, although I have no idea in what situation they would be needed now! http://www.nationstates.net/nation=sigh_of_macsigh/detail=factbook/id=main Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujai Posted August 21, 2016 Author Share Posted August 21, 2016 Anyone who would want to animate their flag, I guess. I can't imagine how you could even do that, it's definitely beyond me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yy4u Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 The game allows for animated flags(GIF).It must be no larger than 107(w) x 71(h) and less than 50k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedy Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Anyone who would want to animate their flag, I guess. I can't imagine how you could even do that, it's definitely beyond me You need two programs which I possess. If you want them, I'll send them to you. The game allows for animated flags(GIF). It must be no larger than 107(w) x 71(h) and less than 50k. It will be another string to your bow if you are capable of animating flags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
