i like it...its very retro....kinda like an old video game......maybe try changing the background from green to white though. just a thought.

slease

04-05-2005 23:27:48

Yeah, I'm working on the background to give it a cooler look, I'll make the ipods larger as well.

Are You gonna be making more of these? I like em so far, easy to understand and all. The rest could be a little tougher, photo ipods, ipod shuffles, game systems, all that, a little more ambiguous. Anyway, kudos slease, +kma for you.

slease

05-05-2005 01:30:50

I'm making more at this moment, I got tired of replying so I'm just putting them up in the original post.

Transparent background?

slease

05-05-2005 01:32:30

because they are square they don't need transparent backgrounds, if thats what you're asking.

Stroid

05-05-2005 05:55:27

i like them...i was thinking of icons that have letters in them for example a box and inside it says FFS cause some people are idiots and wont understand the pics but i do really like the icons you made

slease

05-05-2005 15:04:32

Anyone else have any suggestions? What If I made some that had letters on them. I just think ones that say FDPC wouldn't be understood well by newbs, but something with a picture of a computer on it sure would. Would it be redundant to make an OC one that had a picture of a mac mini on it? Or would it be smarter just to nix the idea of separate background colors for separate companies. Afterall, a mac mini is a mac mini and a digital camera is a digitam camera. What do you guys thing?

if you cant figure out what FFS, or FDPC, or FMM then you are an idiot its that simple

Lookin' good. Keep in mind that if someone doesn't know what an icon means, it'll have a text box show up when you hold your mouse over it (tooltip) that has the full title, eg. FreeDesktopPC.

i'll continue to update this as i make more...

the PSP one can be for freepsps, psp4free and phreepsps.. D

lol

slease

05-05-2005 19:29:50

k, i updated them, got rid of the different background so the mac mini would work for all mac mini sites and so on. I will be changing DS4free so that it works with the DS from freegaming systems.

I'd like to know which types of icons would be cool to have besides ones that are site specific.

Like maybe an Attention one, Hot Thread

what else?

Stroid

05-05-2005 19:30:48

i dont think we should do those i think it will make the board to clutered i think we should only do ones for Gratis and OC. but i am not sure what admin wants i will run it by him

the question I was asking was, besides Sticky and Announcement, are there any other important ones that should be done?

Admin

05-05-2005 21:38:53

Off-Topic, Trade, Question, Buy/Sell, Stupid, Poll, a flashing one for announcements (I can make them usable only by mods) (but not too annoying).

Anything else that suits your fancy, really.

yea the only one i like out of mine is my PSP one I have PSP font... i like all yours P

but i'm doing 50X20 since it was the largest size available. haha

05-05-2005 22:28:47

Added some new ones. I still need to fix DS4Free and need to do FreeDesktopPC as well as more word ones.

Looking at them together I will change up the HELP one and Off-Topic. The new ones look good?

lol, I'll start updating inline then.

Admin

05-05-2005 22:39:33

Liking still, although Off-Topic doesn't fit. Something more distinctive for trade would be good, like with arrows. Also a PayPal one would be great, for people who are just interested in money at the trading forum.

Lastly, all of them are very obvious to me at a glance liexceptli the freehandbags one. It's just a little too unclear. Maybe a smaller, more stylized bag, or just a big LV or Coach logo? I don't know.

Thanks for doing all this, slease.

slease

05-05-2005 22:41:11

I agree with you on freehandbags, for the life of me I just couldn't draw a purse correctly. I'll try one with a big LV logo or something. That should be pretty obvious.
