EN World Icons (@Russ)

[Thanee]

Looking through some of the forums, I think the "hot" icon is too prominent right now, should be more subtle, while the "you have posted here" icon does not stand out enough (as said above).

I would also prefer, if the tack-on stuff would always look the same regardless of the combinations (i.e. not like the hot icon with the checkmark, where the flame/checkmark is smaller than usual). The halo idea above certainly has some appeal in that context, too (but subtle; normal and hot topics aren't that different after all).

Of course, this is in no way meant to play down the greatness of these icons; just some constructive criticism to make them even better.

That goes without saying.

Just sayin' - I know how it feels!

I'm concerned that the d20 icons might be offensive to those who have had bad experiences with the d20 System. Maybe d4s? Or the unloved d12 icons? Or maybe go completely system neutral with d17 icons?

(Yes, that was a joke.)

Seriously, it really is looking sharp: icons, buttons, layout, everything.
Overall, the site feels less cluttered and cleaner.
My ADD and old clunky laptop are pleased!
Thanks yet again!

No. 2d6 or nothing.

Thanks for the feedback everyone

It's been a busy last few days, but when I get a chance (in the next week or so), I will submit a few new versions based on not only the feedback here, but also my own ideas based on seeing them in use now (in other words, I had some ideas as well).

Thanks again, much appreciated!

Sweet. Hopefully you will find the time to do this.

Ok, here is wave 2 of the thread icons.

I made the dice/world smaller, and am using a new/bigger check-mark. You will also notice the "fiery" dice for hot threads - noticeable, but doesn't detract too much from the other, more important elements I think.

Those look great...but I'm still seeing the previous iteration of them.

Have they not yet been implemented?

Russ will have to upload them when he gets the chance
