Halsoy's collection of magically enchanting things and dings

Then the alpha channel mixup is what I suspected. yay, I guess

Here's two more with various degrees of darkness. With my lukc, you'll want something inbetween

[Silencer]

Actually the second one matches the official one pretty closely. Could you raise the opacity slightly? It's pretty transparent.

[halsoy]

Like.... this?



or, this?



Edit: these two may come out a little brighter, I can darken the tone again if you want.

Edit2: try this one:

[Silencer]

Yeah, the second one works great. Thanks!

Edit: Gave you access to our developer builds so you can see this in action.

[halsoy]

Cool, thanks

Oh, and just because, I made one that is slightly closer to the original. I intentionally made the one for RTST slightly dissimilar, but here is one that is even closer to the original (but still not 100% there). If you want a mirror copy I can probably do that as well. It's just that the "frame" is slightly offset from the corners. Other than the colors probably not matching 100% (but they should be pretty close.



If you can't tell, this one has the white frame on the vertical edges like the original does, not just the corners (but without the white bloom as that was causing the alpha issue).

[Silencer]

We don't need a mirror copy, just keeping the design style similar is enough. You've done a great job on this. Thank you again, sir!

Btw, as a quick example of an animated icon, would something like this work?



If something like this is what you have in mind, I can work on making it more "shiny" and "glowy". The problem with .gif's though is that I can't make them "glow" with a transparent layer properly. It's just the nature of the image type. So everything needs to be limited to within the solid parts of the image. But there's tweaks to do making the layers themselves look more like metals and with a polished look.

[Silencer]

Yeah, exactly like that. Nice!

[halsoy]

Roger that. I shall have a few ones up later today. I'm assuming you want something like this done for "Sometimes I Impress Myself" (since you mentioned it) and maybe the tier 3 MAX icons?

[Silencer]

Up to you for all of them. The impress myself one would be kinda cool to have.
