schnurlos Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 I think because my post got sticky, nobody has seen it But it's still actual:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=188283#p188283
Determination Posted June 27, 2006 Report Posted June 27, 2006 I've been working on some connection status icons, but I haven't come up with anything good enough to submit. The categories icons are a bit more difficult.
twinlight Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Someone was proposing famfamfams silk icons for network status. I think they are the best yet. For the categories I have no idea, I only hope they are skinable too.
Firon Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Not usable because they don't follow the rules required. And the category icons are not skinnable.
dAbReAkA Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 what are those rules? i like them just as i said in that thread before
dAbReAkA Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 "Also the icons for network can be redesigned (for colorblind people):"what's wrong with such a design? different shapes, even if those people dont see the color they can still see the exclamation mark and so on..they may not be exactly "only 14x14 pixel used, 256 colors, 16 colors used, 1 color transparency", but they could be touched a little bit
Determination Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 obviously, you want your icons consistant with the styles you already made default...Operanized / ludde's Simple mod / Crystal SVG.wasn't ludde talking about the Settings dialog categories? (e.g. interface, torrent)
DonGato Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Someone was proposing famfamfams silk icons for network status. http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/icons/accept.png http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/icons/error.png http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/silk/icons/exclamation.pngI think they are the best yet. For the categories I have no idea, I only hope they are skinable too.Really nice ones. Can't you adapt them to "follow the rules"?
tjobo Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 Yes.. I would like those network icon as well. Really nice!
osm0sis Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 personally i'm still very much a fan of BSH's first attempt:
schnurlos Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Posted June 28, 2006 For checking, this are the (up to now) originals, used until build 467:So my try:No. 1 (24bit bmp, made from BSH's, brighter):No. 2 (the same as png, made from No. 1):No. 3 (png, made from No. 1, but with 16 colors only):No. 4 (png, made from No. 1, but with 256 colors , 16 used only):Firon and ludde, please check which are ok, all others: post, post, post ...Brighter, darker, perhaps rounder, ... ?
nascent Posted June 28, 2006 Report Posted June 28, 2006 To be fair, there can't be that large a percentage of colour-blind users of µTorrent, so images focusing on shapes could be downloaded separately.Schnurlos, they seem rather pixelated to me also the green seems too light.I too like BSH's first attempt, although the exclamation mark on the red image could be bolder.
MechR Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 I have some questions..."16x16 pixel, only 14x14 pixel used, 256 colors, 16 colors used, 1 color transparency."1. Does the one-color transparency count toward the 16 colors used?2. Does each status light get 16 colors, or are they all on the same 16-color bitmap?
schnurlos Posted June 29, 2006 Author Report Posted June 29, 2006 MechR, for this I got the original ones from ludde, so you can check them out!Each one is a single png in the origin.For checking, this are the (up to now) originals, used until build 467, form ludde (to see how they should be):And here there are new ones (BSH's mod new).:So my next try:No. 5 (24bit bmp, made from BSH's, little mod on the red one):No. 6 (the same as png, made from No. 5):No. 7 (png, made from No. 5, but with 16 colors only):No. 8 (png, made from No. 5, but with 256 colors , 16 used only):Firon and ludde, please check which are ok, all others: post, post, post ...
dAbReAkA Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 that's better.. he may even include them in 1.6
dudeboyz Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 Maybe have the foreground on the red icon be WHITE for better contrast?Only thought I could come up with.
Determination Posted June 29, 2006 Report Posted June 29, 2006 the second row is Silk - alphablended borders.
dAbReAkA Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 i like the first pair.. how would they look like in utorrent is another question 4th sucks2nd - way too pale
dAbReAkA Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 i like some signs on them.. not just some ugly shapes
Determination Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 icon overload!!!!13rd is alphablended.
dAbReAkA Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 the 3rd one is the best one.. it's so smooth..
