boo Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 nice, but I think the glow/shine needs to be lighter/more transparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vixenfinder Posted November 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 ok ok i'll edit it anywho and tell me if you thin kthe u part need work cause it was keeping it more in line with the icon designe instead of the real µ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animorc Posted November 9, 2005 Report Share Posted November 9, 2005 Looking at the shadow, I get the impression of 3-dimensional, but the gray frame makes the image look very 2-dimensional. Perhaps this was intended, but that's the only thing I don't really like about the icon.On the whole it looks nice though.Edit: The µ part is great imo. I like the straight lines and sharp contrast.

vixenfinder Posted November 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 p.s. the whole grey edge thing was supposed to smooth in theto the button to make it look like a gemstone fitting into a ring that kind of smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vixenfinder Posted November 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 it's simple all you have to do is tinker around in flash. that's what i do then finish it up in photoshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h0rnytoad1 Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 hi,i can't see your images in here [red X], but if i go directly to the url in the pic with another browser window, it works. just giving you a heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h0rnytoad1 Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 nice workalthough i see what ppl mean by the reflection being a bit much. maybe it should be less , after all, the image looks good, but as an icon, its very limited in size and what we can see. it makes the µ difficult to read when its so small.i too would probably remove the reflection. how about a red or blue background instead of emerald green ? (wich is nice btw, just wanting some diversity) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixenfinder Posted November 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 that's simple i'd just shift the hue in photoshopbesides it was my first one and just wanted to stick with the original before my creative juices took over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winMX_67 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 I cant see it...i think the links are dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Hotlinking from deviantART is very slow.The page for the icon is here.Also this guy has some other nice work you can see it all here. VixenFinder, if you want to upload the image to ImageShack, that may be a better idea for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winMX_67 Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Thats SUCH A NICE ICON!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winMX_67 Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 When I save the file as .png the icon gets REALLY small to where I cant see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixenfinder Posted November 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 When I save the file as .png the icon gets REALLY small to where I cant see it.that's interesting. the image is in png format. are you using it in y'z dock. or did you make an icon out of it. also i noticed that since png uses some other encoding methods to save the file it might act weird depending on what image program you use. (but that's just from my personal experience) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winMX_67 Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 When I click the down arrow it just says BMP and I got into paint and save it as .png but I cant see the icon after I do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixenfinder Posted November 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 dont use paint (it's made for pretty much bmp 16 color-24 bitmapping and dosen't support tranparency) i'll post an icon if anyone knows how the heck to do that.
