Go with the short one.

(Although to be honest my eyesight isn't nearly good enough to tell the difference between any of those :( )

Totally loving the shit out of this, Acer.

So Blah, we runnin' with this?

Also, this is a great idea. But more importantly, these are fucking awesome:
Good work Acer.

Aw shucks~ :)

Only thing I'd possibly say is that the 'P' on the PSN one looks a little thin compared to the 'S' and 'N'. How about either:

(Lolz for quick hack jobs in Paint.NET at work)

Hmmm... I like the first one since it still looks pixelly but I'll have to take a closer inspection later. What does everyone else think?

The second one matches the style of the other icons better but then I don't know what the PSN logo (Assuming there is one) looks like in the first place.

It's based on some textual logo I found that day. I'm having trouble locating it again though.

Found it!

I of course inverted the colors but the design of the text still stands.

I think this would look good for the PSN logo, but then someone would have to make glassed buttons for the rest. Whoever did those forum icons for the game section should do it, although everybody is probably anxious to just use what we've got.

That might be interesting but that isn't the PSN's circular logo. My last post shows it and as does Skills' earlier example. That and glassed doesn't match the rest of the post bit and it might be hard to achieve that look.

The thing I like about the textual ones I designed is that they're around the same size of the flags and buttons in the post bit so they don't feel out of place. You could easily fit all of them nicely in there if you wanted to.

Just as a test (going with the glass circle idea), I knocked these up:

This is the PSN network thing: http://www.opimage.co.uk/u/OmagnusPr...e/GFF_PSNo.png

Not done one for steam, but what do you think?

Those are actually pretty nice, dude. =)

I'm just still not sure how I like the idea of having little blobs in the post bit though. Those are really well done though.

I think I prefer Acer's small ones. We must decide quickly, or we will be no better than old men who rot on their front porch arguing about the weather on April 9, 1935.

What was the weather like on that day? It could be very important! =o

Cool. Just keep in mind that my icons will have transparent backgrounds so they'll match just fine too.

Fixed.

I think they both look good (the round ones could use a little more contrast), but I think the flags win out because of the color variety.

Excellent. Thanks for editing that again, Megalith. =)

I agree. I literally knocked those up in 5 minutes using Pixelmator (for the first time) so they're complete rough concept jobs. I'll have a look at knocking up something a bit better tomorrow when I've got a bit more time.

Acer's little ones are still top notch though.

Well if we were to go with mine we'd have to decide to go with your superior text rounding for PSN (and consequently a superior S for Steam) or the original pixel job.

Is there any news on this one? I think it'd be quite cool to get them added, though some sort of decision as to what style to go with would have to be made.

Ker-bump.

I know this is digging up a slightly older topic now, but everyone seemed to be in agreement that we should do these when it was discussed properly, with just the style of the icons to be decided. So, I reckon we should get this train a-rollin' once again.

Oh hey! I completely forgot about this bit of pixel work. Thanks OP. =)) Yeah, I still need to do a mash up the nice 'S' you created in PSN for Steam's icon.

Good bump. =Y

Snap to it then Mr Bounce, we don't have all day. :p

Acer, you have failed me for the last time. OK, perhaps the second to last time.

Anyways, since we now have CHz on board as resident code monkey admin/fixer, is there any chance we could actually get this going?
