Main image on USAF

So we had a discussion awhile back at Talk:United States Air Force/Archive 3#Propose changing the main image from DAF Seal to Air Force Symbol, and there is strong consensus against using the DAF Seal as the main image. The service articles all use their own service marks. Garuda28 (talk) 04:30, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Updated with an SVG service mark for the USAF Zaxx81 (talk) 05:20, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! It looks so much better!!! How much experience do you have modifying SVG images? We have a few Air Force ones that are in desperate need of it. Garuda28 (talk) 13:15, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

I have decent skills in Adobe Illustrator. For that emblem, I took the DAF Seal, deleted the stuff that was different, and then found a matching font and used text on a path. Are the ones that need editing already a vector? Zaxx81 (talk) 14:54, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Yep! So the images of the USAF officer rank use the emblem as a button within the image, however in 1993 they were replaced with hap arnold wing buttons (as can be seen in this image http://www.25af.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/663072/aftac-engineer-earns-air-force-level-accolades/) Garuda28 (talk) 16:21, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Not sure what you mean by officer rank use the emblem as a button. Can you provide a link to the incorrect image? ----

Here is the image I'm talking about. Garuda28 (talk) 16:42, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
