Forum:New game icons

Forums: Index > The World that Never was > New game icons

Lest anyone thing I've forgotten about this...it was suggested in the massive "Wiki Improvement" thread that we improve our game icons from shrunk down versions of the game logos.

The hard part is getting anything, especially an entire game, down to a few pixels. I thought of the now-defunct panels theme before the sidebar was reorganized, and thought they'd do well here.

These are the little guys I've come up with so far. Colors and crowns are based on the original logos for the most part; the cards were just too iconic not to put into the CoM versions, and I thought the Organization 13 symbol nicely wrapped up the whole concept behind 358/2 Days.

I'm not 100% satisfied (I rarely am though), so while they're a work in process, any thoughts? Suggestions? Scrap 'em and start over again? BebopKate 03:01, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

They aren't clear enough as to which games they belong to, and don't look professional enough. Good effort though.

I find them clear enough... but then again that's just me. Any ideas to clarify them? --—YerMom _{is feeling jolly} 03:28, October 17, 2009 (UTC)

I had uploaded one Heart image with the intention of recoloring the Hearts to denote which games represent which, kupo. Most of which just by manipulating the Hue of each logo, kupo Also, I should think the "Featured" icon should be incorporated into the "Gameicon" template,

Perhpas you could add abbreviations in the hearts? Also, perhaps we should also incoporate the Staff Member template into this template, if we decide to merge the Featured template in.
