www.facebook.com/groups/ocwfed/It's not perfect, but after fucking with it for about 3 hours, I'm done. It's got the basic concept I wanted, there's just something missing, or something. I wanted something slimmer and more modern for the tag straps, and it took me forever to hack together that pic of the two arms gripping the way I wanted. Maybe the globe behind the arms is a little too big? I dunno, I'll come back to it later, but feel free to toss me some feedback.

Hmm, I think for the basic concept you were going for, it's alright but I can see what you mean when you say it's missing something. Perhaps something that covers over where the arms cut off, like an outline of the main belt plate that covers over maybe?

That's an interesting idea, but I wouldn't really have a way to do it. I've tried doing similar stuff with the other belts using the capture device to get a sort of "template" of the plate shape, but it always ends up not fitting- like really, REALLY not fitting. It's been a frustrating mess. But yeah, like- ideally, I'd like to get rid of the globe (and there's another plate back there, least I think I left it in there), and put something different in, like a sun with some rays coming off of it in gold or something like that, but all attempts at making that were pretty disasterous so far, and the arms cutoff is a total pain in the ass. This morning I was working on very little actual sleep because I was up till all fucked up hours all weekend (including a 48-hour stretch where I got one 1-hour nap in), so I'm hoping sometime over the next couple of days I'll figure something out. Having similar problems with what I wanted to do for the X-V title, but on that one, I'm just going to get stupid until something works, so it's not that big of a deal.
Thanks for the feedback, I might try to do an outer "frame" plate like that again, see if I can get it to work. You would think they would put out some basic templates!!!!! I mean, they give you the ability to put anything you want on the belt, but they can't publish a flat graphic with the basic shape of the plates??? Ergh

Got the frame to work! New pics in the group. Looks MUCH better, really close to what I was wanting. Now I just have to figure out that fucking X-V belt. Too many ideas, but nothing seems to fit quite right...

Yea, they really need to work on having the ability to bend the graphics you make on the belts and being able to have cut in frames, like the current main WWE title belts have (Universal, WWE, Women's).
That said, the tag title belts look MUCH better now, they just needed that frame behind them and everything would look pretty sweet.

Yeah, just having "skew" doesn't help a bit, and their other options are pretty lame. If I had a solid template, I could bang these out in 1 go, instead of having to develop the whole thing in layers, transfer it over, toss them on and hope for the best.
That said, new pics of the final belts in the Facebook group! w00t!

X-V title mock-up in the Facebook group too. Just wanted to see if I could get close to the old '08 belt that I loved so much, and it's a neat idea, but the graphics would have to be changed a lot. Anywho, drop feedback here or there- would you rather see a traditional style "hardcore" belt, or something with a demony face and claws trying to eat the plate? Lemme know!

Except for sideplates, I think the X-V is done, pics in the Facebook group!
