Greetings, folks.  As the title indicates I have a somewhat unconventional tattoo request for you skilled and/or knowledgeable Black & Blancites:

After reinstalling Black & White the game's default tattoos would not display properly: the bottom half of symbol1 would be missing and be replaced by the bottom half of symbol3, symbol2 by symbol4, etc.  I uninstalled and reinstalled again and found the same problem.  I tried a custom tattoo and found it worked just fine.  However, I'm particularly interested in the "dragon" symbol (the top half of the Black & White box image) since it's the symbol I chose for my god.  I can't convert .cam files, so I've been looking for a bitmap of the dragon symbol (it's the tattoo in the "symbol15" spot), but have had no luck.

Where might I look, if I may request?
 
Have you tried the Lionhead Studios site. They still have a section on Black & White. You should be able to either grab an image from there or take a screenshot of the page with the image you're looking for.

There you go
And in case you don't find it centred, or wish to get any of the other thingamajigs.

Oh, and, it's got nothing to do with .cam files ;p it's a .raw file, open it 256 x 256 RBG if you have the choice of any of such.
 
This may be of use for using the above....from the original game readme

7. How to create your own player symbols and Creature tattoos
-------------------------------------------------------------

Black & White comes with 16 pre-defined player symbols/Creature tattoos. The same images are used for both. You can replace any of these images with your own. To do so, place a 64x64 greyscale .bmp image (8-bit) called symboln.bmp (where n is a number from 1 to 16) in your profile directory (default directory will be c:\program files\Lionhead Studios Ltd\Black & White\profiles\yourname\ - where yourname is the name of the profile you created). The player logo/Creature tattoo will then be available to select in the usual ways.

To swap back to the default logos/tattoos, simply delete the image files you created.


Tip: Design your logos on a black background for best results.

Hope this helps  :D
