Rare icon request
Wednesday, December 28, 2005 by Phoenixheart | Discussion: Community
Though I've just submited a few icons to the ObjectDock skin area, I've been a visiter and registered user of WC for a long time. One thing easy to see is, there are too many icons for the "famous" programs, like Photoshop, Winamp, WMP... As I know, a lot of people use many other programs on their PC, and they can't find their OD icons anywhere, as well as they do not know how to create one themselves (as in my case before).
So, why don't we have an "open area" for those OD users to request for their favorite programs' icons? And those who can use graphical apps can create them. It's also a chance to improve your skills isn't it
?
I'll be the first... Any one need an icon? You can send me a screenshot of the origin icon, and I'll try to make it an OD one (128, 256, in PNG or ICO...).
Not so good in graphik, so I need the help from the pro gd!

I think a lot of people are like that. I see a few of these requests I have made aren't quite program specific and they get quite a few downloads. I know some of those have to be people using them for something else, because I haven't even heard of some of these programs.
The best thing that's happened with one of mine is the Director of FAH wanting to use the ones I made for that as official icons. That just kinda blew me away.

That'll work.
I really like your style with the icons, Koasati. They are clean, simple, and they all look so great. I always start out thinking I'm going to make something like that, but I get too involved and end up with 'spiffy whoitz's".
Like the new avatar, too!

Your getting "too involved" certainly pays off! You do great stuff.

My suggestion is to get a good developer...or even a mediocore developer to write a quick program entitled spiffy whozits that does something amazing like deframents your hard drive whilst scraping the toast you burned this morning...then they could use the icon...I like 'em and will use them! but I'm the only one who knows down which path they will lead...too darned cute to be a self destruct button!

How about a St Patrick's Day icon (or 3) that we can click for a Leprechaun, or the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow or maybe for green beer?

You should call it Destiny's Holder . It seems like you were driven to do it.
Now we need the program.
Thanks for the icon Koasati.

You could have made the JU icon for Po' Smedley, but Po' Smedley jumped on it too fast.

See, now here I have to draw the line. I have no problem making icons for people who need them for a program or something. But if you think I am going to make an icon to fullfill some kinky fetish you have for kissing cold inanimate objects so you can get your jollies, you got another thing coming. I am not THAT kind of skinner.
Now, if you ask Bichur real nice like, he might. After all, he lives in a 'stump'. I hear he's into all that stuff.
