Beautyfull job Wojtek.
If I could make a few small suggestions... Try to put the shield with number lover so it doesn't cover the aircraft profile. Think it would be better if it covers part of that banner instead. Also it's better looking when banner is below the profile and not above it. You should also try to delete antenna wire, on picture this small it should be almost invisible anyway and the icon might look better without it.
Anyway, just some thoughts on the subject....

Quick test:

Hm, if you put shield on the banner its less visible... I really like it in that position but if only it could be made more prominent somehow...
Also, since in this new groupe builds you will have several categories, you will have more people which will take first place (each in his respective category). If there only was a way to point for which category the 1/2/3 place was taken...

Now I made it too complicated. Managed to make even myself confused...
 
I had considered all your suggestions before I started the icon series.Unfortunately putting an aircraft pic above the ribbon with Memeber's Choice is not always possible due to the pic size.So it would be quite difficult to get almost the same size of each aircraft icon for all projects.For instance the MiG-15 had a quite big fin.The same concerning the B-17.What is more the ribbon was set at the position you suggested initially but Les and me got an agreement the ribbon had to be as it is now.
Concerning these shields with the place numbers.You convinced yourself that it is not a good idea.I also tried some different positions for them and the left top corner appeared the best one.

I have gotten an impression you belittled me Igor...

Wojtek, I'm sorry if I haven't checked entire thread before I posted. I really like your ideas and it should come to my mind that you already considered the same ideas which I suggested and came up with probably best solution...

I didn't convince myself that the shield position is wrong, I just think its shame to cover the aircraft profile with it... But if there's no other option...

As said before I really and sincerely admire your work. I do apologize if it sounded differently.
