Here's the BETA

Let me know what you think.  If you are the artist, or know the artist that did any particular work in here that I didn't know, please let me know.  Also let me know if I've mis-attributed any work to anybody.

======================================================================

For anybody who's keeping score, these are the only icons we really need still as far as I can tell:

Emulators:
Apple McIntosh Plus
FMSXBox (if there is any difference between this and games BlueMSXBox plays)
SarienX Sierra Games Player
Thomson to7-70

Homebrew:
XBomberbox 1
XBomberbox 2
XPong

Company:
Commodore

Categories:
Arcades (Need a real eye catching one here.  The one I have is pretty boring)
Other Emulators

PC:
Abuse
Gladiator
Out of This World

@ResX
Yes, and thank you for uploading this. I have been using the NineT9Mustang pack b/c it was one of the most complete sets out there...at least that is what I had thought...until now.

Anyway, I had left a reply back at Bomb Bloke for his "Xbmc Shortcut Creator" and mentioned that it could be worth considering using "Icon Pack Installer" with the icon packs made Cospefogo, sotu, guybird, NineT9Mustang, frankmorris, etc. for your project. If it could be implemented packs could be added at anytime, just a thought.

Again, thank you for all the work you have been putting into this project and I would like to contribute something if I can. I'll be working at my end to see if the "Icon Pack Installer" is a solution. There has to be a solution!

Thanks,
RAMblur

Here's one more you're missing Res

(IMG:http://i569.photobucket.com/albums/ss138/sotu88/Abuse.png)

If you guys can find source images I'll do the rest of them, just not into making custom logos for them atm.   Post some links to images you'd like used for them and I'll see what I can do.

Hey rambler and nate.  Glad you're getting use out of them.  It took me a few weekends to do, and isn't near complete I'm sure, but it's a great little collection, I think.

I'd also like to see some kind of "installer" rambler, but I just can't really think of a good way to automate the process since everyone has different folder names for everything from Box to Box.  That's why I at least put the 3 different versions in the folders with the conventions you'd likely need so you can just drag and drop instead of having to download the image, convert the image, rename the image and then copy to where you wanted it.



Oh... and thanks for the icon Sotu.  Great work man.  Looking forward to someday getting the rest of those missing ones.

New request for wide icons because of the .CUT abilities...

I was hoping we could see some regional stuff like this:

US Licensed
Europe Licensed
Japan Licensed
Unlicensed
Prototypes
Hacks
Translations

Probably more I'm forgetting about, but this would be a great start.  Anybody interested?



EDIT:  Oh... and maybe a "Console Game Auto Loader" Icon as well.  I don't know.... what should we call the process of starting games straight from XBMC?   My brother isn't going to know what the hell a .CUT file is.  It should have a name that would easily identify exactly what we're doing here and also looks good on a wide icon.

Hey everyone,

Check out the first post again.  Nate1579 has caught up completely on the Wide Icons for our Roms at this point and uploaded a pack for us to download.  Right now, all Rom Wide Icons should be included in the pack and remarked in the spreadsheet with the artist credited.

If there are any missing Wide Icons that you or somebody else made, let us know.  Also if for any reason the wrong artist is credited for a work let us know.

Thank you to everyone for the great work.  I know it's summer and people don't have as much time to do this stuff when they're enjoying the nice weather, but I'm hoping that this is the reason that it's slowed down a bit in here and would love to see more great artwork like what's on display in here so far.  

I hope the fact that this project has gone as far as it has is proof that there really are people that appreciate this work and I look forward to seeing what else you come up with.

Be sure to check the spreadsheets before you decide to make a wide icon for a particular game because one may already be made.  

Also.... if anybody could do some of the requests I have in the first post I'd be mighty appreciative.  

Thanks and Enjoy,
~Rx

Hey everyone!

I've updated the top of the thread with Nate's work.  Here it is for anyone reading so you don't have to go back to the top of the thread.

Wide Icon Pack Version 2 (07-05-09):

APPS
COMPANY LOGOS
EMULATORS
GAMES
HOMEBREW & PORTS

(Thanks to nate1579 for putting it together and cataloging it on a spreadsheet for us.)


Here's the Spreadsheet so nobody is making duplicate wide icons: SPREADSHEET

If yours aren't in there, or if yours are but the author is credited as "unknown" please let us know.

I'd love to see more from you all.  Some great work here and we're doing our best to preserve the work and give the authors full credit for it.

Take it easy,
~Rx

However you want to do that man is cool with me... as long as you think that stuff will be up there for a long time and not "break" on us.

I'm really dumb about all that stuff.

I would like to see more feedback, but it is the middle of July.  Even the guys I work on the Xtras with don't post nearly as much as they did in the crappy weather.  

Don't get disheartened.  In a few months I'm sure people will be holed up in their heated abodes with nothing better to do.

Well I tried lol. Now someone with some skill redo them. We need N64,PSX,and Arcade in this style.

What happened to Sotu? I thought he was making all the emulators in PM3 style? I would rather have his pm3 set than the cartoony style but I would take either one.

also I downloaded the wide emulator set and it only has low res sotu icons for some reason (331x72).
