What do you guys think of this first draft of "Invadies" icons? These are meant to be added to this site as a set of smilies.

Saint? other mods? your opinions please. if you like 'em, I'll cut em up and email them to the admin.

If people like them they can be put in

SirPeale · « **Reply #2 on:** November 23, 2004, 09:07:54 pm »

I like them.

AmericanDemon · « **Reply #3 on:** November 23, 2004, 09:45:12 pm »

Pretty cool.

<----- Damn.

Bones · « **Reply #4 on:** November 23, 2004, 10:54:52 pm »

Very, very cool!
But they seem to lack the human touch.....

Kremmit · « **Reply #5 on:** November 24, 2004, 12:01:15 am »

Love 'em!

Where's the Donkey Kong Smileys?

Gunstar Hero · « **Reply #6 on:** November 24, 2004, 03:13:00 am »

Like!

Why do the 11th and 12th invadie from the left look like they're bleeding? You should probably use blue or something... Animating some would be a nice touch, too. Otherwise, pretty neat looking!

Tiger-Heli · « **Reply #8 on:** November 24, 2004, 08:09:26 am »

I like them!

menace · « **Reply #9 on:** November 24, 2004, 09:16:40 am »

thumbs up--totally suited to this forum. And secretly I've always wanted the space invaders to bleed--makes all my lost quarters seem worth it somehow...

I would like them in ADDITION to the normal ones, but not instead of.

QUESTION: Color? Should they be colored instead of black? Should they be maybe a lighter color with a black outline?

I like em, but yes I think a colour would be nice. Maybe yellow or green...

But what about these guys?!:

Yeah I couldn't decide how to use all of them.... So you think a mix of all three aliens would be best?

Someone mentioned Donkey Kong smileys. Here's a quickey.

I think his features are a little too small if you're looking them at a high resolution, whatcha think? Should I go ahead and animate them?

saint · « **Reply #16 on:** November 24, 2004, 09:45:11 pm »

I like these!

sirwoogie · « **Reply #17 on:** November 24, 2004, 09:59:53 pm »

Smiley sets are just that. They don't replace any of the other sets. Thus, it's an option in the user profile.

JoyMonkey · « **Reply #18 on:** November 24, 2004, 11:58:29 pm »

Seeing as Saint approves, here's the set seperated and animated:

I stuck 'em all up at:

They took longer than I expected, probably about 3 hours. Luckily, I'm sick right now and have nothing better to do!

It wouldn't have taken so long, but I realized that I didn't know how to make animated GIFs with PhotoShop/ImageReady, so I learned how it was done with Corel PhotoPaint; which seems to be pretty easy at it.
Glad you like 'em.

RayB · « **Reply #23 on:** November 25, 2004, 11:51:25 am »

I love the DK set JoyMonkey!
Just one crit: Make the small distinction between "happy" and "grin":

and

You got the grin one spot-on, but you need to tone down the first one so it's less grin and more smile. Ya know?

Those are EXACTLY what I was thinking of! Since 'ol DK already has so many expressions from the games, he seemed a natural! I did picture DK Jr. for some of 'em, especially the one with the bulging eyes- Jr. had a great eye bulge whenever he died!

Awesome!

missioncontrol · « **Reply #25 on:** November 25, 2004, 06:21:43 pm »

I like both sets (invaders and DK)....so you got my vote to go with them

Kremmit · « **Reply #26 on:** November 28, 2004, 02:47:29 pm »

I just checked my profile; no options for Invaders or DK smileys yet...

sirwoogie · « **Reply #27 on:** November 28, 2004, 02:57:11 pm »

Sure, we'll put them both up. I'll need the invadies split up and posted or placed on a website somewhere. Here are the names to mimic:

Donkey Kong added. Your "Smiley Set" can be changed in the user profile section.

Thanks for your time spent making them....

AWESOME work JoyMonkey!

Great addition to the boards.

RayB,
Any luck with the Invadies?

RayB · « **Reply #33 on:** February 04, 2005, 01:12:04 pm »

I emailed the set to SirWoogie last night. Hopefully he received them...

sirwoogie · « **Reply #34 on:** February 04, 2005, 04:13:55 pm »

I did receive them. I can't get to my email at the moment, but I will be putting these in very soon (today or over the weekend).
