You can indeed make your own emblems. Using any graphics app that supports TGA format, like Photoshop or Paint.NET, make your emblem no larger than 256x256 with a color depth of 24 bits ( 16 million colors ). If you want only the numbers to show, set the background to transparent when saving the .tga file. Name it whatever you like and save it in your SH3 game under data\Emblems\Subemblems. If you want to get crazy and decorate the entire conning tower, have a look at privateer's excellent Turms Your Way mod. It's also included in Ace's Supah-Doopah-Woopah Turms Compendium.

As for the arrangement of bow tubes, I believe odd-numbered tubes are on the starboard, with 1 being on top, and even-numbered tubes are to the port side, with 2 being topmost.
