The icon will not fit in a web browser.

 
Okay maybe reduce the size of the avatar to 75x75 and replace the team member star with a potato chip ( bronze ) cheeseburger ( gold ) chocolate chip cookie ( platium ) and lifers get a possum kitteh much like the NRA eagle.

I know the feeling.  I evidently qualify for four of the damn things.  Don't see the need for the first three.  The NRA one I might do just to piss off the GOA fan boys.

I was under the impression that the original purpose behind the pistol icon was to identify vetted instructors, so that members could easily identify subject matter experts in the instruction field.  This allows people to know that the people speaking know of what they are talking and helps people find someone who might be in the area and able to offer professional instruction to them.  It seems to me that, of all the icons, this one is the most beneficial for all members to see.

Tag for instructions on how to get my new icon.

Quoted:


The icon is for the upcoming NRA voting member push. Basically I explained it in the other thread. We want to encourage more of you to support the NRA and more importantly as a voting member. Why? Well some of you know we have been very active in pushing a pro Tactical Weapons change within the NRA. We have several board members who are on our side and Tactical Weapons are at the forefront of the NRAs efforts. It wasn't always this way, but with votes comes the ability to protect our future.



Again, the idea is simple, become a voting member, USE the power to help keep pro black rifle guys on the board, ensure our future! If that's not enough we've been working with the NRA to promote events like 3 Gun Matches and help push shooting sports further. All of this means we'll continue to strengthen our future second amendment rights.

I've been a lifetime member for awhile and I just sent off the goods to upgrade to a Endowment Life Member back on the 10th...

One of my personal goals is to have the entire collection of icons under my username and a life membership quad star next to it.

Or you could wait until the NRA runs their LIFE membership drive for just $300.  I'm certain you have a cousin or half-brother on here who can assist you.

Yep, Life Member here.

Along with my two sons. ( of course I paid for them )

Question though, how does my eldest son and Team Member ( 50-calover) get his "Tank" ?

DD214 I'm sure. Just need a link to input.

Yes, he is a Jarhead, and I must hold his hand on these intricate interweb doings.
