Default Better looking trident emblem?

Afternoon everyone,hope we are all ok today.

I was wondering if there was a better looking trident emblem anywhere? as the one included in the game looks too 'blocky' and jagged.Or,is there one that displays the god Neptune?,and a better looking Kraken <-- had to squeeze that one in hehe

Thanks.

You know,the white coloured one that is in the stock game.I notice there are a few more 'themed' emblems but I kind of like the above one.Not sure which UBoat that would have been from.
I think I may be better downloading an emblem pack here and sifting through them.Do you have any recommendations,and a link?
Would it also be possible for people to make emblems here,and send them in file format through the PM area?,if so the original trident,with cleaner lines and a more golden colour would be great!

Cheers

I like the golden trident but without text.Is that an available emblem? and if so do you have a link for it?
Can we do our own emblems,and is there an info on this process? I suspect it is a case of getting your picture,shrinking it down,somehow converting that image into the correct extension and applying it to the relevant game directory?
Cheers
