I cannot help you with this Robert, however I will try to find out for you, or you could give Markm a shout via a PM. I am sure he would know the answer.

what do you mean by ribbon rack?
any ribbons awarded to you should automatically show in your profile - once they are actually awarded, which won't be till the end of the campaign usually (not right after you personally finish it - unless you are one of the many who wait till the last minute!)
are you talking about a banner with your ribbons in it that shows in all your posts? if so, you have to make that yourself. If you want tips on how to make a banner, let us know.

If this is the Chariots of fire campaign, your ribbon is already attached in your profile. If not please clarify.

Hi Darren,
If I am not mistaken I think he is inquiring about the banners that members are making like Vance's and mine. The banners have all of there campaign ribbons in them. They look pretty cool, but I have no idea how to make them.

Mark if that is the case I will run him one up in PS, I will need a link to the campaign ribbon in a larger file format, the permission of the designer to use it for this purpose, and the format required for uploading. All I need do then is E-mail to Robert to upload and attach.

Or, maybe he is looking to make one similar to mine, with the ribbons of all his campaign finishes displayed.
I made mine in a simple photo/paint program. Saved it in a photosharing account and added the address to my Signature image space in my profile.
Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

If I can teach Henk to use Photo Shop over Skype, I should be able to make a banner sit up and beg, also possibly even teach you Mark.

Robert if you want a banner like Murphy, or even something a little differant, just send me the details or post them here and I will forward the finished item to you on Friday.
