I think most people don't like the icons that look shit when viewed from the AK2i menu. GTA:CW was a prime offender, another is Enchanted Folk, anyone got a new icon for that one?

world of sand and xwords both do not have an icon, could you make one for each?

also what about a default icon? ie: "app", "game", "homebrew", "emulator" etc? the akaio default no-icon icon is ugly. this way if a homebrew didn't have an icon i could just use your default one.

cheers,

I was wondering, could you make icons for the 3 Fire Emblem games, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and the Pokemon games? That would be great! Also, I'm sure many other people would like these icons since these are such popular games!

I updated the .nds pack (for the first time in quite a while) with World of Sand, jays XWords, and Sample Keyboard (made by my kiddo!

)
I also sorted all the icons into folders, so its not such a jumble

@ Another World, thanks for pointing me at WoS...it consumed most of my evening last night, heh
Maybe you can help me come up with some good default style game/app/emu icon ideas, cuz im a bit stumped lol, and need to give it some thought.

@ dartdude6, it may take a day or three, but i'll see what i can come up with for your .gba requests =)

Have you gotten a chance to make any of the icons?

vato i think they should be a small universal symbol and the letters AKAIO at the bottom. like for a game it could be a controller pad, maybe blue on a white background or something with "AKAIO" under it. i'll have to think about this and get back to you, or we can discuss it on irc.
