The Medals are fun to look at but the ribbons are for forum signatures.
What does everyone think of this idea?

IT's cool but if we ever do it we must resize pics because the forum will be full of images and won't be readable

We keep that list in one place, and use only the ribbons in signatures, the ribbons are small enough so I don't think they would be a problem.

size test:


Are the ribbons too big for signatures?

No they are ok

Good idea. We should award some. I know some people that I think are deserving of them. Efthimios for one.

I like this
I think Euthimios already has one

how can you upload images for signatures? Is there a way?

You have to use the [IMG] code and have a url between the IMG codes.

like this:



use the location of the image as the url.

thanks

There are three "Orders" which apparently confer a Knightly status. Should individuals be able to be awarded to all three orders or should they only be in 1 order and just rise through the ranks?

What Government tribunal decides who is awarded the medals? Or is it designated through democratic means?

Good Question. The President should authorize most if not all of the medals which have specific requirements. The Three different "Orders" have very general "great service to Greece" requirements but are prestigious, so are not meant to be handed out on a whim; these should be proposed by the president/congress and voted on by the congress.
