What Icons Are You Working On?

February 2012

Tuesday, January 31, 2012 by PoSmedley | Discussion: OS Customization

About six years ago, Phoenixheart started a thread titled 'Rare Icon Request' which got 1907 hits in four years. I cut my teeth on Photoshop doing requests in that thread as did a few other skinners. I lost count of the icons I did. I also lost count of the Iconpackages I started or OD packs I started because of ideas I got from that thread.

Anyway.....there are a lot of great artists out here making icons for all kinds of things. So, what have you got going on with icons? Dazzle us. I know I would love to see. As I plug through my first windowblind (One Piece At A Time -threads) we have skinners making other things to go with it and someone out there is working on some icons as well.

What are you working on? Or are you a first timer looking for tips? Post here!

This is a small sample of what I've completed so far. It's called  "Pale Leather" -   hope you like.  -- Ace --

note: it looks better if you click on it to enlarge. I don't have the formatting completed on them yet.

Looks like when I'm done with Dragon Master, I'm going to have to bring One Tribe up-to-date.

That sucks but I'm glad you were able to get back into them. They look great!

I got Cinema4D but I can't wrap my head around working with it. You skinners working with the 3D programs make it look so easy...it drives me nuts.

@Po "Short Attention Span" Smedley. Aren't you supposed to be working on something?

@Po "Short Attention Span" Smedley. Aren't you supposed to be working on something?

Do you see me working on anything here?

I'm just doing what we talked about in vStylers thread. Starting some customization threads to help snuff out the BS crossovers from the gamer forums. If I remember, you said....

Wizard1956
The game threads are just space filler until something worthwhile needs posting.

and

Abandoning WC isn't going to make it a better place, more posts by skinners for skinners will.

So.....the real question is why haven't you (with your +1429 Karma and wealth of often good advice on computing and ability to find skins and wallpapers that others think are lost to the web forever) started a thread?

Next time, bring a bigger stick when you come trolling in my schoolyard, wise-ass.
