Darth Revan is a bad man and I got coal. Not sure why.....

Hoorah!!

Looking pretty good man!

ANOTHER WONDERFUL UPDATE!!!! Alright, so I had to be a complete asshat and make all of you resize your images because they would not fit in the forums constraints on new posts. As you may have noticed, I took that away recently. Well that was to test a new functionality for the forums! (Please use echoing voice when reading this next part) AUTOMATIC IMAGE THUMBNAILING AND RESIZING SO WE CAN ALL SEE YOUR AWESOME COSTUMES IN FULL DETAIL BUT NOT IN A MASSIVE IMAGE AS SOON AS THE PAGE LOADS TOOL! Hmmm. That may be too long of a title to use for that. Especially when using the big booming echoing guys voice. How about just ReIMG? Yea that works cause that is what it is called. Anyway, before my insanity completely takes over.... Well this will allow you to insert an image using the IMG tag and when you attach the image (at full size) and it will automatically resize the image to a previously specified width and height. (This is where it gets cool.) You can now click on the image to get a slightly bigger version of it. (Wait there's more.) Ooh ooh ooh! What if I want to see the full size of the picture you say? Well if you click on the little magnifying glass in the upper-left corner of the picture then it will do just that! I dedicate this Modification to Mynock. This one is for you pal!!! Stay tuned to this thread for further updates. One day I am going to tackle the .......IMAGE GALLERY!!! Oh and I changed the Avatar max size to unlimited as long as it stays under 125 px by 125 px.

Hey Javi! You may know a couple of friends of mine from the Lusitanian Outpost; Luis Alvez and Marco Tamissa. Welcome to TFE! Do not worry about the lack of translation. We will all do our part to help you. Nihilus is not really my specialty but I will try to direct you in the direction that you are looking for. What exact information are you looking for?

On top of the Special Ranks that can only be assigned to certain personnel on the forums other ranks are earned by post count: Jen'jidai.....................0 Acolyte....................10 Sith Apprentice.........50 Sith Overseer...........100 Jen'ari.....................200 Grand Lord...............300 Sith Master...............400 Emperor's Wrath.......500 Sith'ari...................1000 Each rank is achieved by reaching the above post count. Everyone starts out as a Jen'jidai (Sith for Dark Jedi). The more involved you are with the Detachment gives you a new rank. This is just a fun way to get people more involved with the Detachment and have a little bragging rights. Also you will notice to the side there is a new field for you to put your Garrison! You can change that field under your UCP as well.

Thank you Nefthys! Finished the Ranking system. Now everyone should have some kind of image dependent on their rank. Deleted the Detachment/Legion member rankings. There are Det/Legion Groups so no one has lost any permissions associated with their accounts. Smilies on the way! Star Wars smilies icons are going to be uploaded. I am also going to create a few of my own that represent some of our titular characters here at TFE. If you have any issues with accessing any of the forums that you were able to before please let me know. I am shuffling things around a bit and reapplying permissions. I have it all mapped out on paper so I am pretty confident that you will not notice anything. But just in case please let me know.

Ok so 80% of the changes have been implemented. The forum software has been updated and new security changes have also been updated. You can now find Flagship in tapatalk! The mobile skin is active but it is very bare bones with a simple color scheme. The new forum design has been made the default but as I said before you can change it between the different looks by going through your UCP. I hope everyone enjoys the changes. Restructuring of the forums and final changes will be made shortly and the boards will not have to come down as long for those. I apologize for the lengthy time it took to finish the big updates but I hope you like the changes that occured! Please feel free to send me a PM if you notice any problems. **EDIT** I fixed the issue with the Mobile skin not showing up. You can now see the mobile skin on your phone and tablet. Sorry it was 1AM when I stopped last night and forgot a step. Respectfully, Mike Harshbarger DarthBrute SL-9730 TFE Webmaster

Hello and good afternoon Flagship Eclipse Members! I am pleased to announce some coming changes to The Flagship Eclipse Forums! Upgrade and some additions: We will be upgrading the forum software to its new up to date version which will help with keeping your accounts secure and the forums free of spam bots. With the upgrade will come a double verification system for sign ups. This will cut down on the amount of fake accounts trying to get signed up. **insert epic trumpet call** TAPATALK!!!! Yes Tapatalk functionality will be added to the forums as well as a Mobile Skin! When on your tablet or mobile phone browsers the forums will automatically forward to the mobile skin to make load times and viewing easier and faster. Don't want to use the mobile skin? Click the button at the bottom and you will be forwarded to the....DUN DUN DUN DUUUUUUN... The new Forum look! Yes a new look is coming to the forums! You will also be able to choose between the different looks. But for everyone's viewing pleasure the new look will be the default so people can get a good gander of it. Don't want to use the new look or just want to switch back and forth? You will be able to do that under your User Control Panel: Board Preferences==>Edit Global Settings Ooh and a new Ranking system. Not only will you show off your post count but you'll get a cool rank to go with it. And you will get a better definition of who's who around the forums! When are these awesome changes coming about you ask? These changes will come in two phases; Phase 1 being the software/security upgrade and Phase 2 being the new look and mobile version/Tapatalk. They will begin tomorrow night (10OCT2013) with the uploading of all necessary files. The actual upgrade will begin Thursday with the new look and mobile skin coming on Saturday night. On Thursday and Saturday night the Forums will be locked and users force logged off. This is to ensure a nice clean transition with the upgrades. The staff at The Flagship Eclipse apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. But we hope you enjoy the changes that are coming! And as always feel free to PM me or leave a message on the board if you have any issues. Respectfully, Mike Harshbarger DarthBrute SL-9730 TFE Webmaster

I made the move over to The Shadowlands. My garrison members are mostly on The Shadowlands. I just hit lvl 45.

You are going to want to head over to the Sith Lord Detachment for anything Vader.

Welcome to the detachment! Feel free to ask as many questions as you would like.

Alrighty. Skill of the internets put to use. The Revan looks like Nathan Plamondon and he is from the New England Garrison. I got that from browsing several of the pictures in the albums. However... The picture in question was uploaded by Colby Thompson if the name on the Photobucket account can be trusted. I am assuming he is from the Mass. area as well due to the many pictures. He has a mando and also troops a TB. Uploaded pictures from a Toys for Tots troop in Boxford. However I find no Colby Thompson in The Legion. That could be because he hasn't been approved or has gone into Retired status. NEG currently has about 100 members (but we all know that could be off) so it would not do well to search all the profiles for the other 2 sith lords because some people have more than one costume. Best bet: Get in touch with SL-1597 I pulled up a lot of info on SL-1597 but it didn't seem prudent to put that here.

Congrats on approval man!

No problem man. No question shall ever go unanswered on this board!

I think you have a different build than mine. So what I did may not work for you. So here are a couple of ideas for you. Idea 1: You could try putting some elastic off to the side and below your clips angling up. So it pulls it down and once it "pops" back down the elastic strap will be hidden from view. And more often then not it would probably keep it in place. Idea 2: Use an elastic strap with velcro sewed on opposite ends and opposite sides of the strap. Sew velcro on your sleeve underneath the capelet and velcro to the underside of the capelet itself. Raise arms...stay in place. Move arms too far then velcro comes apart and does not rip the capelet or your shirt. Idea 3: Same as 2 but no elastic. Just sew velcro to the capelet and sleeve. But I think this would not provide as much arm movement. P.S. Geez man, you could have at least let the kid win.

You can do quick disconnects on the inside and unplug the speaker. I am sure there is a way to install a volume switch on a saber too. Pointed tips on the blades has never been an issue. It is just a preference thing. Some troops that you will do will be without sabers and blasters, others will be no blasters but sabers allowed, and of course the BRING EVERYTHING troops.

Issues with a build are very common. Can you put it all on and take some pictures? That would help us out a lot in helping you to identify a solution.

Tagion is a stickler for that hood. **poke poke** It is one of those things people want to pull back to see. Unfortunately as Revan we aren't allowed. lol I would tighten up the chest/abdomen too. It looks as though it is not connected to the back piece. After tightening that up bring the big o ring (BOR) up just a little so just the top width of the BOR is above the bottom of the ab piece. Myself, I am a stickler for the rings. I am never happy and have even been known to stomp my feet and hold my breath until people upgrade them. Not required but it is highly recommended. I do like the fact you upgraded your clips. But the outside clips shouldn't drop down like that. That could probably be solved by just tightening up the cowl ends and moving where the clip attaches to the cowl. Next point is the cowl should form a triangle. From the head and down to just inside the shoulder joints. I am overly critical for just joining. I love the costume and I am the same way with mine. Don't get me wrong. It is looking pretty good. Tagion has great points as well.

The 501st only does LFL approved characters. There is another costume club called The Dark Empire and they allow custom sith or bad guy characters. With that being said if you want to do the costume then do it! There is a guy locally that has done his own custom sith costume and it looks awesome!

I am always on the look out to get into a group or get help with some of these Hero missions. Those things are impossible by yourself. If anyone gets on the Bastion server add me. I just got started and once I go back to work I won't be able to play much except maybe once a week. So I am just going to stick with my one character right now. I am still trying to figure this all out. Hopefully I will see you guys online.

You know what? I just started the game. First time playing an MMO and it's not bad. So I figured I would start a SWTOR thread. If anyone wants to hook up online in game we can give each other a ring! The Bastion Server Sith Inquisitor Lvl 11 Name: Tormaim (yea yea I'm a n00b.) Post yours!

Looking really good man! You are going to want to make sure you pull the cowl down some more over the mask for your submission photos. The "point" sits a little high. Be sure to have a good primper that can help you look perfect for your submission photos as well.

You are going to want to look at this: http://www.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CharacterApproval These are the requirements for getting a new approvable costume. They will scrutinize a lot harder on new costumes and will be 10x harder for approval.
