I posted in Scifi's GUI thread, volunteering to make icons, and now those icons are done!

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!
ICON SHOWCASE!

A new icon will be posted every 5 minutes or so! If nobody is commenting, I may post 2 or 3 icons at a time!

The Icons I have made are:
Stop
Attack
Wait
Patrol
Hold fire
Return fire
Fire at will
Hold position
Maneuver
Roam


All icons are bitmaps, size 200x200 pixels, semitransparent PNGs. Photoshop PSDs will be provided on request!


Icons are being posted as we speak!

First up!


A red crosshair, whatever could it be?

Next!


S! In the name of the color white!

Tertiary weapon initialized!


Efficient movement can be deadly! Hup, two, three!

You could skip the attention whoring/drama and just post them all at once in one post / zip.

IIRC you've made a pretty "Ready" icon, post plz

Can you guess what it is without looking at the URL?Not an American big-box retailer.

Here are a few others!


Limited mobility!


Option that nobody uses!

Roam has its uses, now post the rest of the icons already Mr. Attention Whore.

Here goes!


Be Stealthy!


Let no attack go unavenged!


Release the flames of hell upon your foolish enemies!

And that's it. I'll be doing a couple more icons for CA, tell me if you need any more for any projects you're working on.

Also attached is a wonderful .zip file! Thank you! Have an Excellent day!

What's with the beige instead of standard yellow?

stop is generally a red color... white S makes me think of surrender.

Every true warrior knows that to stop is to surrender!

stop only happens when you have no cons and resbots.

They look very nice and clean icons.

However, they don't really seem to be consistent, and I couldn't tell what any of them were supposed to be (except for the first one... hurr durr)

Yellow is hard to see with some backgrounds, and I personally prefer the darker yellow.

Please elaborate.
And about not knowing what they're supposed to all be, supcom's icons are more confusing.

I tried to color the 'switch' buttons like fire state and move state differently than the other buttons. That's why we have a whit stop.

that doesn't make a white stop button any less fail.

posting them scattered across multiple posts and 10x larger than they need to be makes in kind of hard to guage how they'd look together in game.

so in conclusion:
- you failed completely at presenting your new icons
- the icons' suitability is uncertain
