| Could you please give me the link RazorHawk? I've looked at duplicolor and they don't seem to have the orange that I am after. I sense finding both the orange and the blue will be a tough task. |

The closest they have to orange is called adobe. I can't find orange which I would think would be a popular color. Its also hard to find a good green or a good yellow sometimes. As for the blue I have found that duplicolor dark blue turns out nice when you paint it on black. |

| Ok Who is taking Ideas from the Justice Leauge here I see Booster Gold with his entire face covered up Superman as the Blur from Smallville And the producers said No Costumes No flying when that show first started and The Atom Also from the Justice leauge wearing aviation goggles and finaly what looks like Either Spiderman with an all blue Symbiote (which might explain the Boobs) with a lightning Tattoo and Running shoes or The Blue Hulk after joining a Weight loss program and now he cant find pants in the right size |

| The Blue looks good but might I suggest a bit of Black or white maybe some grey instead of orange or yellow |

| Double post, anyone? I'm not sure if that's a rule here, but you could just as easily hit the 'Edit' button. |

| You find a problem with Booster Gold, Polarman? I pride myself on being the RLSH equivalent to him. |

| Booster Gold rocks, but oddly enough none of who you mentioned even came into consideration for inspiration when designing the uniform - if anything the original concept came from the Flash, I just heavily edited it afterwards. |

| I think he thought my design was inspired by Booster, its a similar pattern. Oddly enough I didn't intend it to be like Boosters. |

| Blur, I think the designs so far have been pretty cool, but also very derivative of other, fictional heroes. Every rlsh is a unique person and your costume should reflect that. I would forego the lightning bolt on your outfit. For the Flashes it works, because that is how they got their powers, in part. Plus, being The Blur, you have a chance to make a visually unique costume. I would suggest using a logo on your uniform that is made as a hologram. You know what I mean by that? You can make a logo that moves around on your chest, or one that is clear one moment and a blur the next. Just an idea. Plus if you are running, how about some fluorescent piping on your costume or reflective details that will blur as you move and even leave a Flash-like after image when you move fast enough? |

| I had originally opted for the lightning bolt as it was reading the Flash comics that began me on the path many years ago that has lead me to this point, to who I am - in terms of my affinity for running and my want to do good for this world. However, I can see your point. Though the uniform has to be something I personally feel comfortable with, and has meaning to me, I do not want to seem unoriginal in the process.
Your ideas revolving around a holographic logo and the fluorescent piping is interesting, to say the least. I wouldn't know how to go about doing something like that, especially the Flash-Like after image aspect, but that is certainly something I am now going to look into. |

| I see it. it's a good and visually captivating idea if done right. as a watcher of the old Flash TV series, I know what Gauge means. with the reflective piping placed properly, in low light conditions you would get the Flash blurring line effect from the proper angle. that is.... if you were moving fast enough, and someone was watching..... but if you got some dark time action around some streetlights with a camera! ========== ===================== <---- that was the tracers  |

| If you are going to engage in strenuous activity, or heavy running, I suggest you do not cover your face with any type of material. Material over the mouth and nose will become soaked from moiisture during exhalation and make breathing difficult. Don't believe me? Tie a bit of wet tee-shirt material over your face and go running hard.
Leave your nose and mouth uncovered. There is a reason luchadores do not commonly wear a spiderman style full face mask. |

| You know, I had to just check who Animal Man was, had never heard of him before >_> I can see what you mean by the colour scheme, but at least mine is inverted to his - his uniform seems to be mostly orange with some blue. Nevermind anyway, I like my colours and don't plan to move away from them just yet.
Though in regards to the mask situation, as you mentioned Silver, that could possibly cause a problem if i'm going to be running for long periods of time. I will have to run some simple tests to see what best suits my needs. |

| Nothing wrong with the colors. I mean its not like anyone can come up with a unique color set. All of them have been used. Well except this guy came up with a unique set, but I think its cause he is insane.  |
