If you log into the account to which the pictogram in question belongs you can find out how old the account is by going to the My Account page (via the sidebar menu to the left of your screen) and looking under the Member For heading.

You're very welcome!

pops in with question...
how old does an account have to be for the picto to be 1gen?

@moonsoverwater; No, and I haven't used the forum ever with the account the picto belongs to. So I can't tell when I first used it.

@uwharrie; I wondered that too.

@moonsoverwater; Where do I find the link you want? (Sorry, I'm a bit clueless. I've never used this forum until now, despite playing TEF for a long time. I'm pretty sure it is a gen 1 picto, though.)

Neonribbon.
xD Thanks for helping me.

"../register/symbol.swf?word=FZr4"

Not a problem!

I clicked "tools, then "view source" from your picto page.

See that there is no number after the word "symbol" ?

This means that this is indeed a first gen picto!

You are lucky!

Oh, so that's how you do it! I'll keep that in mind.

uwharrie- There is a limited amount of pictograms in each generation, so when all the gen 1s ran out they made another batch and called it gen 2.

I signed up January 6th last year, 2 days after registration opened again thus implementing the gen 2 pictos B|. So TEF has been around since 2002? not sure about that. But the gen 1 pictos lasted that long

thank you guys : )

Oh, wow! Ichiro has encountered your deer a few times! It's great to see you here, haha. I think his pictogram is from the first generation too. ♥
