Does anyone notice how many lame cape designs there are? I made a second char and went back into pre-searing, about 9/10 of the capes had flame edges and some gold or white emblem in the middle. Not to mention a lot of capes have a color configuration of red and black.

Does anyone else notice this or is it me? I just wish people would put more effort and creativity into making a cape, than half the capes having flames on it and a skull in the middle and calling it good.

BTW, if you have a cool cape design please post it here. Hopefully not all capes look the same.

When I created our guild I made a first cape. Looked TERRIBLE. My guildmates kept hounding me about it on voice channel, so I finally swalloed another 2000 and changed them. Currently we have a Real dark Navy Blue as the background with a Gold / Yellow Scorpion on the back, the hem part is the one that looks like it has been kind of ripped a bit.

How do you actuallu MAKE a cape do you just put on layers of pictures? Or do you actually draw and image.

My guild has a green cape with the spider motif..unless you're wearing basic brown or green garb, the cape clashes with most fancy colors..very annoying for those that want to dress smart !!

There are preset images and then you choose from a swatch of colours available what you would like the background colour as, the icon colour and the detail colour.

The swatch has a slider that changes the shade lighter and darker depending on which way you slide it.

My guild has a picture of a beer mug on a green background.
Our guild leader made it after I joined.
He must die.

I've seen that one. I love it.

Ours (Knights of the Oasis; KO) is a gold chess knight on a red background with some green floral pattern. I'm not overly fond of it, but it's not the worst out there, and I have gotten a few "nice cape" comments while in town so it must not be too bad.

Ah, here's a pic of it in design stage our guild leader posted, although (thankfully) we went with a different hem than this goofy one pictured:

Our cape needs to be fixed a little bit >.>;

The emblem is a bit too bright, and I want to change the paws to be a blue instead of aqua, but I am overall happy with it, I think it fits with us. the pawprints and the mountain and such sort of go with us 'Wayward Wanderers' and such. Here's a pic of it so far, the one in Beta looked exact but a BIT different.

There is a Beer mug picture? I must have missed that one when scrolling through. I'll pay for a 3rd change if I can get that one

Here's mine, I tried hard not to make it yet another generic cape clone when I created it

LoL in game fashion police are required.

Jab · May 07, 2005, 03:36 AM // 03:36

I'm working on one for my guild of one , once I got some spare cash. I'm thinking light blue background with a green emblem, but it's still in design.

Ollaolas · May 07, 2005, 05:01 AM // 05:01

My guild's cape is a dark red and black diamond background, with a bright gold fleur-de-lis. The fleur-de-lis really stands out.

Cs Coldize · May 07, 2005, 05:22 AM // 05:22

my cape sucks but I cant help it my leader is dumb

Weezer_Blue · May 07, 2005, 06:13 AM // 06:13

lol... yeah... I generally hate all these "hey! look! I'm an 3v1l 1337 n00b! f34r m3!" kind of capes. I mean, really... does it look cool anymore? no.

My guild has a very dark green background with a silver/white/lightgrey dragon sign on it. And unfortunatly, I just noticed, it has flames as well - but you can only see them (as I only noticed them when) I went into the arena and my cape turned red. but it's only slightly different hued so I don't care.

Brax Rinlow · May 07, 2005, 06:14 AM // 06:14

if you think that many capes are lame, just join a guild with "cool" cape

Legendary Mithrandir · May 07, 2005, 08:46 AM // 08:46

Our guild cape suits our style of the clan its orange and red flames with a grey Deamon skull, generaly because our guilds called Deamons of The Underdark

Teufel Eldritch · May 07, 2005, 08:55 AM // 08:55

Haha I have what you ppl would call a lame cape but you know what? I dont care whether or not you like it! I like it & that is what matters. Neener, neener, neener, neener, ploy. lol
