i think NAF is more about table top.
Two reasons:

1) I like them. They are fantastic pieces of art that represent our hobby.
2) The NAF likely should embrace (like every other organization in the world) technology. I can easily, using OBBLM, download my table top roster as a Cyanide roster file, install it on my system, and play a game with my table top team against someone connecting via direct IP. The winner can then upload the results (much like using BBManager) to OBBLM and it will automatically update the two rosters, so that when I go to play them in TT again, they have that digital game under their belt. Honestly, this is a HUGE draw for me in being able to use both mediums to play a TT game. And before you ask, yes I have done this (in two different leagues).
Our league have just startet to use OBBLM. How does one download a roster as a Cyanide file and use it? Ooo Wise One.

1) Go to your team page in OBBLM
2) In the team menu (under the team roster), go to 'Roster' -> 'Cyanide-DB', then pick a uniform colour for your team
3) Save it to the correct spot on your system (defined on this page)
4) Connect via direct IP to your opponent
5) Play game
6) Winner uploads the game, using the same instructions as above

i also like them (yes, far better looking than what i could achieve) but i don't think they should represent the NAF, they represent the Cyanid implementation, those images are videogame oriented and NAF should be (as far as i imagine it) above the implementations, so it should have his own set of roster icons. i think it should use new ones representing miniatures not with a digital version of the game. in fact i think that as the NAF has a dedicated webdevelopper it should also have a dedicated designer to produce some high quality products.

i agree on the 2nd point althought i don't think that the NAF is IT ready to implement everything one can imagine right now.
we are getting out of topic now ...

It's likely just your browser stopping the download. I'll PM you about this.

You need to add height and width to your parameters. For example, at the end of the string add "&h=50" .

How should we modify it so it takes the new naf pages into consideration?

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.
