As I've said before, I like our current icons, but they were made a long time ago before many theme edits, so I'm not opposed to new ones. Really sorry for the wait. I picked the perfect time to propose this apparenty, because I've been busy during the week, and that's not helping me get things done any faster. But I'm working on the icons as I'm typing this post out. Expect to see some examples ready by tomorrow night.

If you have a couple examples definitely post them. No guarantees we'll use them, so it's better to find out sooner than later.

That wasn't a call to rush you. I was just excited xD but I suppose Oni is right. If we don't use them and you end up working tons on them, I'd feel bad, so I guess it is better to find out sooner. RE: New Forum Icons - Drako - 05-28-2021 @Oni @Jiggly I wasn't sure how many icons you'd want to see, so I came up with these three. What's in black will stay a solid color, and what's in red will be edited by color changer. Announcements
![]() Introductions
![]() World News
![]() The World News icon needs a bit of work, but I just wanted you guys' approval first. I can change whatever you'd like, or if you want to make changes yourself I can provide you with the PSD files.

A person-shape for intros is more immediately recognisable and intuitive than the current 'plus' symbol we have. I think the same goes for World News. While I do like our current icons, the world news one makes me think of WiFi style symbols, more than world news. xD RE: New Forum Icons - Drako - 05-28-2021 (05-28-2021, 08:00 PM)Jiggly Wrote:(05-28-2021, 05:53 PM)Drako Wrote: @Oni @Jiggly I wasn't sure how many icons you'd want to see, so I came up with these three.

I wasn't entirely sure what to do to make it look like 'World News'. I was thinking of adding an exclamation mark to it instead of the two lines in the top right, but I felt that it would be redundant since my Announcements icon already had one.

I'm with you on that one, though still a perfectly plausible idea if a new icon design is thought of for announcements. Still. What were you thinking for Ban Appeals? I'm trying to conjure an idea for but I haven't thought of anything good. Small part of me wants it to look like a little jail, but maybe that's just trolling xD RE: New Forum Icons - Drako - 05-28-2021 (05-28-2021, 08:14 PM)Jiggly Wrote:(05-28-2021, 08:10 PM)Drako Wrote:(05-28-2021, 08:00 PM)Jiggly Wrote: I feel like, design-wise, these look a bit more like what they're supposed to be.

That or a judges gavel would be the two best ideas I could come up with.

Ohh I think the Gavel is a pretty solid shout. I should probably wait for Oni to chime in though - I don't want to get too excited as it's his decision ultimately xD |
