I've been looking into Userbars. There used to be a functional online tool for creating them in short order that is now, sadly, non-functional as far as I know. There are a host of photoshop tutorials, but they're low on my list of "to-dos" at the moment. Sorry.

After this week I'm going to give Gabriel's stuff a shot (after finishing the Cat's work.) If I can pull it off without pulling my hair out I'll give your userbars a go.

The only Stuart's Highlanders I can find is from Fanbook 3, and I can't find any emblems for the other two.

Remember to K.I.S.  Using whatever image program you have (Photoshop, GIMP, etc.) start with a 350x20 pixel project, slap your background in, put the picture in, and type the text.  Resize, erase, or colour change as necessary. Use shadow effects ("Filters -> Light and Shadow -> Drop Shadow" in GIMP) to make the outlines on the text and image.

3rd Kearny?

But for the Northwind Hussars, you can find it here: http://www.sarna.net/wiki/images/1/19/Nhnh.png

New part of the unit formed during the HPG blackout in the Dark Age, formed from parts of the 1st Kearny and the decommisioned 2nd Kearny and Northwind Hussars regiments.

Given that the 2nd Kearny was my first battletech unit i already have the horrible feeling that when the timeline catches up to the dark age the Fusiliers will become my new unit of choice.
