New Ribbons 2016!

Hello ladles and jellyfolk

It's time for something new! Behold; new ribbons!



Apart from the obvious, do you notice something new there?

With the new design also comes new ribbons for Privateer Championships!

The Privateer Championship is represented by a ship; going back to the true meaning of "privateer" (private vessels authorised to attack others). The ship pictured is the "Golden Hind", perhaps the most successful privateer, captained by Sir Francis Drake as he explored, circumnavigated the globe, started the Anglo-Spanish War, and was knighted by Queen Elizabeth I aboard the ship. When you're fighting solo for your own title in the Privateer Championship, I'm sure there's some similarities to be had there.

As for everything else, here's a brief overview:

Colour/Logo - As is seen on the forum index.
Car Class - Red, green or blue depending on the class you raced in. Typically, red is prototype, green is GT, and blue is touring, but might change depending on what cars are in the championship; Red is top class, green is middle class and blue is bottom class.
Season/Year/Car - Fairly self descriptive. The Spec Cups will name the car used.
Team/Privateer/Driver - Teams Championship is shown by a team handshake, Privateers is the privateer ship, and Drivers is the driver's helmet.
1st/2nd/3rd - 1st is Gold, 2nd is Silver, and 3rd is Bronze... Obviously.

Great work as ever Stan!

Sir Francis Drake would be proud of you

Looking good!

How do I use them in my signature ? Do I have to use a special code or do I need the image link ?

They will be put into your signature for you... When you win them of course

Looking great Stan! I am assuming that ribbons awarded till now will keep the old format and the new format starts now?

You assume correct

In my profile I missing a lot of ribbons, how I can get?

What ones?

Let me check my race history and I let you know.

I missing the following ribbon:

There are ribbons for participation in a series or just it is for winners?
