Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted January 16, 2014 Tech Admin Posted January 16, 2014 Now, I'm not saying that these will be implemented as it's really not my decision but I was thinking for the photoshop users among us. Would you be interested in designing some smileys CoD Zombies related? They need to be the same size as the current emoticons and they need to be suitable for dark backgrounds. Anyone fancy the challenge, the more the merrier.
Administrators Boom115 Posted January 16, 2014 Administrators Posted January 16, 2014 This is an amazing idea, I would love to see it! Unfortuntely my photoshop skills do not go far past what you can do on MS Paint. I know we have a lot of talented folks here that are up for the challenge.
Slade Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Great idea. Having CoDz-themed emoticons would be awesome. I'll try to make some tonight. If I'm satisfied with the results, I'll post them here.
PINNAZ Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Cool idea! I can only imagine what you (Slade), Infesto & Nemesis could come up with. I would love to see the BRAINS icon return too. (Hint, hint)
Slade Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 As promised, here's some concept Z smileys. Also brains. nomnomnom.
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted January 16, 2014 Author Tech Admin Posted January 16, 2014 I know I said same size as current smileys, but to be honest, they are a bit small. Thinking about it, I think we would need to increase them in size maybe 32x32? Just to give a bit more definition to them?
Moderators Lenne Posted January 16, 2014 Moderators Posted January 16, 2014 As promised, here's some concept Z smileys. Also brains. nomnomnom. I giggled. ^.^ Impement those!!!
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted January 16, 2014 Author Tech Admin Posted January 16, 2014 Although I like the thinking behind those, I just think a little more definition is required so a larger emoticon
Slade Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Yeah, I think you're right. First time actually creating pixel art, I was already struggling quite a bit with the 20x20 pixels limit. versus versus . Here's a size comparison. 20 24 32
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted January 16, 2014 Author Tech Admin Posted January 16, 2014 Yeah 32x32 so much more dfintion but not overly large and not too small. I'm going to say 32x32 minimum and maximum size for any submissions to the emoticon challenge
Ehjookayted Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Great idea, Craig, and awesome emotes, Al Can't wait to see some of these implemented.
Slade Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Thank you Lenne and Paolo. I'm now toying around with 32x32. While it does take more work and time, the more pixels make it much easier for my sketches to get from paper to my screen. I'll post some when they're done.
Tattoo247 Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 Well I certainly like the size, I'm blind as heck so the bigger the better! lol Wish I had the time to learn how to do these, I have reasonable photoshop and illustrator skills but way too busy for this project, I'll be looking forward to seeing what is chosen though.
Administrators Boom115 Posted January 17, 2014 Administrators Posted January 17, 2014 Damn you twitch for making it look easy!
JakeDuck Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 I gave it a quick shot, but I'm using my TV instead of my monitors so I couldn't be very efficient with it.
Administrators InfestLithium Posted January 17, 2014 Administrators Posted January 17, 2014 Loving what's been coming up so far. I'm not a pixel artist so I doubt I could even come close to making a generic one like IP's, haha. Let's see more coming, friendos.
Slade Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 Aint no one allowed to touch Russman! I also tried to make some brains last night, but they ended up looking more like purple breasts. .. I blame my browsing history
Administrators InfestLithium Posted January 17, 2014 Administrators Posted January 17, 2014 This was surprisingly an interesting outcome, given my own problimities.
JakeDuck Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 I worked on a few zombie heads with the different eyes and such, how are they? I'm considering removing the neck so they are just heads.
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted January 17, 2014 Author Tech Admin Posted January 17, 2014 These are looking good, remember though that the smileys if they did get added they would need to mean something. For example Happy Wink Stick tongue out Cheesy grin laugh out loud Sad Angry Mellow Unsure/Confused
JakeDuck Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 These are looking good, remember though that the smileys if they did get added they would need to mean something. Yeah, I thought of this after I posted the Ray Gun. Even so, it couldn't hurt to have the characters too. Speaking of which...
PINNAZ Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Hoping we can change the "Give BRAINS" icon to the Maxis Brain Model from Origins? Would someone be able to implement this? I can supply different sizes & file types if need be. 32x25 640x480 1024x768
Tech Admin Hells Warrrior Posted February 1, 2014 Author Tech Admin Posted February 1, 2014 I can have a look at it, see what I can do, not sure whether this or the pink brains would work better?
