So after a "break" from Bakemonogatari theming to search for some audio resources I finally decided I'd make a preliminary folder close icon to get a preview of what it would look like. I feel like it's a fair improvement over the original one...but I'm still torn if I should actually use this icon yet or if I should go with Senjougahara's casual dress like in the background.
Aside from the folder (of which I recorded a full hour of me making the folder close icon from start to finish pretty much), I spent a lot of time trying to find the system sounds for Bakemonogatari Portable, but it turned out to be fruitless efforts. So instead, I just recorded them using audacity and PPSSPP...which I should make a video now that I think about it. I'll probably just go over all of the sound effect tweaks and things within the same video since apparently this videos are just going to be really long.
The only plus side is that I have now selected all of the sound effects that I'm going to need for the theme and for the most part, I doubt I'm going to find anything else that I would rather have. You never know though, I'm still listening to various Bakemonogatari songs and keeping an ear out for potential excerpts that would make a good sfx.
On a different note, after listening to the same Bakemonogatari tracks over and over again, one song in particular is really sticking, though I'm still considering between the 13 tracks I have left to narrow down.
There wasn't particularly much that I accomplished, but I did toss around the idea of making a Kaiki theme because of an animated gif of him hair-drying that would have been kind of amusing as a bottom screen, and the top screen I could try the tiling background with a rather simplistic icon I found...and there is the great music for Kaiki that I have liked since ages ago.
