I'll simply make any forum icon "packs" optional via the control panel... meaning... if you care to make the icons according to specifications, I WILL add them to senv5... users can choose your icon packs as they wish.
Guidelines:
--> Around 32x32 pixel dimensions. Can be more, can be less, but 32x32 generally fits the space it automatically has because of the text in the other table rows.
--> Each icon has to have a gray-scaled version of it...
--> If you choose to animate all/some of them, keep it subtle. I don't want 10kb images for each forum.
--> Each icon should be different from the others, as the icon represents the forum.
These is NECESSARY:
--> Must be .gif
--> Icons must be named after their forum id. Add _shaded to forum id for grayed icons. You can get forum id's by hovering over the link for them. "Portal News" has an id of 30, so for your portal icon, you should have 30.gif and 30_shaded.gif. *
* Staff forum is 43, high templar is 84
Subforums also get forum icons, don't forget about that.
If you have extra icons to generally use for new forums for the future, name them opt1.gif and opt1_shaded.gif... opt2.gif and so forth.
Zip them up and send it to me in a pm or attach it here.
I am sure that I won't be the only one sending in SC icons but you pick the best of them
So if I have optional icons I have to name them like
30_opt1
30_opt1_shaded
30_opt2
30_opt2_shaded
Is that right?
ADDITION:
Why did you removed the first tread? I had grouped my icons there, now I have to do it again
...
ADDITION:
Can they be 34x34? As they are in screens, so they won't lose quality.
opt1.gif
opt1_shaded.gif
opt2.gif
opt2_shaded.gif
... etc
If new forums pop up, you can simply send me an altered .zip with the new images and I can replace your old packs. As far as the zips you already sent me, I'll deal with it.
34x34 is fine... it's up to the user if they want to deal with the extra pixels...
"you pick the best of them" => I'll pick all of them as long as they aren't terribly retarded and follow the naming scheme... and let each user decided what pack they want to use...
If one pack is simply outstanding, I'll choose to use that as default.
I meant if multiple users send SC icon that are very similar then you pick the best of them.
So, I can update my icons if I make them better?
yeah, just resend them to me

You mean default in SEN v5 or you would change them even now?
Have anybody else send you any icons yet?
How you want me to change my icons so you put them on now? Because people seemed to like them a lot in the first tread.
Senv5...
No...
I wouldn't because it would be somewhat tedious... and no harm is done by not changing them.
IP why you didn't download the green icon update I send you? I mean please DL it so I can clear my attachment a bit...
Haha... I thought I did.
Either way, I got it for sure now.
I think that my HT forum icon sucks. I have an idea about it, can you please give me your current HT forum icon...
is this still available or should it have been closed by now?
It'll be available forever...
DEAD, what HT forum icon? Don't worry about it too much, HT forum will die in SENv5. It is seemingly retarded to have some elitist hidden forum. It's not actually used that much, from what I notice.
I believe IP is looking for full sets of icons
Anyway IP, as I have learned PS I will probably make another set, this time it'll be something new. I made SC icons in paint
lol ya I noticed after I posted..Oh well.

Sorry to point out the error, but correct grammer is "These
are NECESSARY:"
(period ommited to not interfere (<-possible spelling error) with correctness when showing correct grammer)
