Halo 2 Emblem Generator

Features:

Generate a Halo 2 Emblem.
Copy the emblem.
Save the emblem.
Change its size.
Copy the URL from bungie.net's website.
Retrieve an emblem from any xbox live gamertag.


I am currently trying to make it so you can make the emblem you generate your aim buddy icon. I also am trying to add some pictures to the menu selection and when you search for an emblem of a gamertag it will tell you what emblem it is, (emblem, colors, background, ect.)[/color]

To run this program you will need .NET FRAMEWORK 2.0 Beta 2. Wich can be found at the link below.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en

Fixes in Version 2.0:

-Random Emblem, Fixed Errors.
-Changed layout.
-Some other bugs I fixed that were messed up.

Here is a tutorial that I wrote on how to make the emblem of your choice your AIM buddy Icon.

Step 1:

Create the halo 2 emblem of your choice using the Halo 2 Emblem Generator.

Step 2:

Resize the image to 63 x 63. (The quality of the picture will change, this does not matter, its because its streching an image the size of 63 x 63 pixels to 170 x 170 pixels)

Step 3:

Click File, Save. Save the emblem your choosed [Make sure it is saved in JPEG format.(name does not matter)]

Step 4:

Open up a web browser and go to the web address http://www.putfile.com/ and upload the emblem image there.

Step 5:

Click the image that you just uploaded on http://www.putfile.com/. It should re-direct you to the page with the image. Now right click the image and click properties. Copy the URL.

Step 6:

IN the web address bar type aim:buddyicon?src=CLICK PASTE

Step 7:

Click OK when a message box pops up asking you if you would like to change the buddy icon for your AIM Screen Name.

If you are to use some of my source code or edit the program and re-distribute it, I have no problem with that, just please give me a little bit of credit. This program was not hard at all to make, I would just appreciate it.p

How do you know it doesnt work offline if you didnt download it :-D (wich is doesnt) Making it work offline... I probully should add that, I know that bungie.net wrote their emblem thing in asp.net so It could be done. I guess Ill work on that after saving all of the images. (4 replies already, damn)

EDIT --- I guess the COPY URL gives it away...

When I get back from school today, Ill go ahead and make the same version of it in Visual Basic 6, then you wont need to have the .NET Framework. Ill find the link for the correct .NET Framework to download also.
