I thought the awards could use some sexiness...
That is indeed quite very sexy. (And a bit big. But that can be remedied.
)
We kinda had similar suggestions in the Admin section about remaking awards completely instead of the random, "easy" sprites.
I'll just report what I said there, since it applies pretty well here :
*******************************
That is very good, but now, let's be clear :
- Right now, the reason we are using such heteroclite sprites and icons (I still find most of them to look okay) is because it's EASY. I want an award that concerns money, I look at "coin icons" on google and look for something not too disgusting. Takes a few minutes. Now, what happens if I don't find any Paper Mario Badge with something related to coins ? Or founders, or about the TF2 hoster thing ?
Right now, our only limitation when creating awards is the feasability. I don't really want to add the game restrictions to that equation. [Nota : The suggestion was about using Paper Mario badges for icons.]
- "We should", "someone could". Great.
Now, if you want to make it work, just prepare us a big recap with each of our Awards, Paper Mario style. In a word, match the badges to our existing awards. And don't forget the big icons too. And show it to our users to see what they think about it. I'm not going to do it for you, since I'm already busy with other things, and fine with either kinds of award icons, really.
This also kinda applies to [XXXX]'s suggestion. You want to make each awards match ? Okay, sure, but again, I'm not going to do it for you. So prepare to change every single one of them, and prepare to change them each time we add a new one. (Making us have to wait each time we want to add an award. Always take the practice into account in stuff like that ...)
*******************************
With that said, if anyone is willing to remake our Awards into these splendid ones, I can but encourage it. Really. It looks freakin' epic.
But just know that we won't put them up until all have been converted, and if we know that you'll be available whenever we create new ones. (Not that we do it very often anyways, but heyz, just saying.)
(And you'd probably get the support award in the process. =P)
