Icon Vote - Page 3

Bwlr · 03-15-2008, 10:09 PM

Can you put that Arc Eye Hawkfish that's in the logo in there somehow?

I know it a PITA to get it down that small.

tbittner · 03-15-2008, 10:10 PM

I voted for the clown. I like that one! And I think it personifies RS perfectly! Clowns can be serious when necessary but most of the time, they are, well, CLOWNS!!!

The clown would be confusing for me another board I frequent shows as a clown in my favorites

tbittner · 03-16-2008, 01:04 AM

OMG! You mean there are other reefing boards out there???

I asked about other entree's on the first thread about this.

I really need to get some glasses.
I'm with Boomer on this one since I can't see any of them well enough to vote for one.
I know you have no choice on the size but whatever you can do to make it easier to see would be great.

First off I just wanted to say thanks to PEMfish, it seems like you've put some work into this and I really like the idea. I do like your icons but I have to agree with some of the others that they are a bit hard to see. I'd like to see a bit more contrast between the letters and the backgrounds.
I did like the icon submitted here. It incorporates fairly clear letters and a pic.

I don't personally know how to make an icon but I'm sure a number of people here do. I'm sure it's not hard either, we could have some tutorial on how to do it and then we'd expand the pool of "artists" contributing ideas.
Just an idea though, I'd be happy with most any icon personally. I'm sure that even if we have a hard time reading it we'd all be able to learn to recognize it and would be content.

I like Jason's too.

I voted for 10. I can see why the majority likes the clownfish, but I think it should be something unique in nature. The clown can be used anywhere as an .ico.

PEMfish · 03-16-2008, 11:57 AM

12 &13 are just an R. Not overly complex. If we did this monthly quality of the entries would go to hel. If you don't like what you see, then don't vote. I have heard you say its tot hard to see.

lcstorc · 03-16-2008, 02:45 PM

I don't think the suggestion was for a monthly contest but to have icons as the subject of one month's contest. I'm not sure how many people know how to do it or want to learn but I wanted to clarify the point.
Meanwhile, I was not trying to be critical at all. My eyesight stinks and I know it. I agree with the statement that we would get used to it regardless and it could be quite helpful.

PEM, I love your idea for a new icon! It helps me with my bookmarks. I think it could be fun to have a contest. Here was the free site to make .ico files for anyone that wants it. I like the clown fish icon the best so far.

Paul, are you trying to soften up that dead horse so you can feed it to your fish? I'm not sure that's a good idea.

PEMfish · 03-16-2008, 05:25 PM

LOL, piranhas -
