wow 509.............these look great....keep up the good work!!

Hey bud,

Here's a pack of wide icons I'm currently using that could desperately use your handiwork to get those borders on there.  Some of them are for less popular emus that would take forever or be impossible to hunt down good artwork for, some are just company names, and some are categores.

I know there are more, but it took me a long time to put this pack together to be edited.  I need to see this stuff fixed on my box before I can get down to the last ones needed and let you know.

If anybody else wants to do this I'm cool with that too.  Whoever gets this done is really doing me a solid.



If anybody objects to their wide icons getting the border treatment, just let me know.  

Thanks ultimate509,

ICONS TO BE UPDATED...

[ressurectionx]

Cool man.  Can't wait to see them.  Like I said, those borders and getting the icons the same size are what were needed to make everything uniform, even if the icon was a different style by a different artist.

What's even better, is that the border you are using was already used for a ton of homebrew and other stuff before, so about half of the icons already match the work that you've done.

Looking forward to your update.

Hey BillyBobX,

They look great.  You mind posting stuff you do from now on (assuming you do more) in this thread now:  

Wide Icon Project

I'm also looking for wide icons that have the PM3 Border that Ultimate509 has been putting on them.  Would you be interested in putting the borders on your work to make an alternate set?  I'll have to get that border from U509 so others can use it too.

Thanks!

Here's a mockup of a better alternative for PM3, dunno about other skins:

(I used one of giles' mockups as my background just to have something plain to work with)
That seems to work very well for me...  I might even use that myself.  What do you guys think?

Ever get this set made guybird?

[guybird]

Super bump!  Totally forgot I had these in a photobucket, so I have them all (no psd's though).  I'm gonna go through and clean them up a bit, and make the transparent versions I've always wanted too.  This site inspired me to take another shot at this as they are all 100% uniform.  Only prob is that they are the European versions (megadrive, famicom) so I'll have to see about finding some consoles rotated in this same way (my consoles all face the other direction).  If anyone has any new requests, let me know now, as once I get done I probably won't go back to do others.  Once I get done with the original set, I'll make a transparent set and make an album for that.

Cleaned up Genesis icons:











Yes, I think the transparent ones will work very nicely

Rest of Sega plus Nintendo:










I'm keeping these in psd's according to the system manufacturer for uniformity.  Once I get done with the rest if anyone wants the psd's to play with let me know.

So I go to try my icons out in Mediastream, and there aren't any decent wide icons views.  So I download a bunch of new skins, and turns out I really like Transparency!  but it doesn't do wide icons, it does posters + fanart.  So now I'm gonna have to manipulate my icons into a poster format as well, and make fanart!  Here's my quick and dirty mockup of what I'm thinking of doing for fanart:

For anyone waiting on more, I'm not updating this thread as well, its getting quite clustered.  Just check my photobucket every once and awhile as I upload my new stuff there.
