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 would bet PHOENIXHEART could do a beter job on them.

I won't place my bet on it, for I know myself

My C# project has run to its critial phase, and I'm afraid I won't have enough time for icons, means I can't lend you a "strong" hand Po. I'll try my best though.


Thank you all for continuing the thread, maybe I'll be off for a while again.

Back with 2 more requests!

Could someone make a high res (just meaning not pixely, grainy, or blury) Blair Witch sticks icon? Here is a good image of what I would hope it looks like: Link

If it could look somewhat real, with wooden sticks, that would be amazing .

And the second request is for The Godfather. Here is the image:


That exact same thing except bigger so it doesn't go all blury on my dock would be great .

Thanks again, and awesome work guys .

Hello Keikonium !
These are cool,,there are 4. 2 of them have handprints that will work over light or dark backgrounds. (See preview) ...awaiting moderation...


The second one...I didn't have a clue on. I usually Google stuff to get more info or better pic's, but when you Google 'The Godfather', you get about 40,000 references to Marlon Brando and Al Pacino. So, I tried to make what you wanted, but have not uploaded it cause I don't know how to present it. Here it is. You should be able to right click and save it from here.



I hope these are okay for you.

OMFG ! I am seriously amazed by The Godfather one wow ! That will work perfectly . Thanks man ^___^! (by the way, The Godfather is an music tag editor. Here is a link to the site: ((TGF)).

And the Blair Witch ones will be great . I love the movie, so I figured I could use that as the icon for my movies folder ^___^.

Thanks once again, and keep up the great work .

Kick ass . My dock is getting sexier by the moment ^___^. Now I have just about gotten my entire start menu into my dock LOL. I only have 4 tabs and the 4th scrolls soooo far .

Thanks again, and I am sure I will have more requests in the future .

I'm glad you like it! I was pretty nervous about this one. I also got a great response to it in the OD gallery, so thanks for asking for it. The fact you like it so much makes it all the more fun.

I myself attempted to make the icon a while back. I took the original icon and stretched it so it was only 128x128. Applied a bunch of photoshop filters to make it crisper and it looked horrible lol. Better than the original on the dock, but not by much .

What do you use by the way, to make these icons?

(Also, I will have some more requests as soon as I upload the pictures of the icons to my photobucket ).

Wow, thats pretty sweet for just PS .

3 more requests to keep you (or anyone else who wants to give it a go) busy .

First icon request is Google Player. You can use your imagination for this one, but here is the regular icon:

I will be happy with pretty much anything .

Second icon I would like is for Avvenu. I was surprised there wasn't one here already . Here is the logo:


Last icon request is a little tougher. It is for a program I use often, but it has no logo lol. It is a website saving program called HTTrack. Here is the background of a file it creates during each website save.

Those darker purple rings with a shadow is what I am thinking. Not connecting rings, but more like rings that go off into a point instead of connecting. See how it gets thinner at the right?

Hopefully someone can do these icons for me . After these, my dock icons will be complete until I install more new programs! Thank you everyone, and keep up the good work .

Ok... I grabbed the Awenu logo and worked a bit with it...and the HTTrack background. Some of these other artists will do a great job...but give mine a search and see what you think...uploaded at 9:30 am est on Monday...give the admin some time with it

Both the icons will be PEREFCT! Thanks Bandit . You do a great job, and they are round and glassy. Alot of icons on my dock are like that, so that rocks. Thanks again .
