Starchild Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Are we limited to the country or can we use a city...In other words, are we bound to doing a national-team court (ie - England) or are we allowed to do a specific city-team court (ie - London)?

Waffles Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Sounds suh-weet, WiB!If anybody who uses raster wants a bigger template, I found one here (I'm not sure if the measurements are right...they don't line up perfectly with mjrbaseball's):Court Template Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The concept is for a country's team, but you may ID the city they play in somewhere in the concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilTownMVP Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Maybe it's just me, but the gif isn't working for the FIBA court and I don't have illustrator.If someone could either post it or send it to me, I'd really appreciate it...EDIT: I just thought I'd mention that I'm planning on doing Jamaica. Not that I'm necessarily tryin' to "call" it, more like a favor to those who don't want to duplicate.

Braden Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 The first entry! I'll probably be changing it throughout the week but I thought I'd get things started.My country is kinda obvious: Israel. I chose it cause... well... I didn't think anybody else would choose it.I tried to experiment by making the entire court look like their flag.

number55 Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Below is the basketball court at the National Indoor Stadium, the jewel in the crown of Fiji's sporting facilities. The stadium actually does exist in real life, but I have no idea what the court really looks like. Who knows why I chose Fiji... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starchild Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Considering I and vicfurth were gonna do Israel... are we allowed to use Israel even though Braden already busted one out?

hrivnak Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 Well, here goes nothing...Here's a court for Iraq based on their new flag. I THINK the arabic I have on the court says "Iraq" but I'm not 100% sure. I apologize if it is incorrect, don't mean to offend anybody. I made the blue darker than the images we've seen, since supposedly it's a darker blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
