Sure. I made one for myself (not sure if I posted it), but it wasn't very good. It was just something to replace the default one.

You can view everything I've made so by clicking on the Blackmarket Icons link in the first post.

I'm not missing any more icons Although I could always request that you best-ify some of the one's I already have.

I forgot about the Devolution icon, as I'm working on some apps right now (1 new, two updates). Make your requests and I'll work on them once I finish the Devolution icon for Overseer.

WiiMod Lite please

Hmm.. I thought the Devo one was done, I already d/loaded it from the blackmarket place. So I take it there's a new one coming. Cool.

 

[JoostinOnline]

WiiMod Lite please

Sure, but why do you have WiiMod Lite? It's just Wii Mod with pieces of the main menu removed.

 

[MassiveRican]

Cuz the apploader actually works for me, and it supports WAD installation with my USB. I lost WAD installation support for my USB with WiiMod 2.8+ and apploader stopped working as too. v2.7 ended up being the best for me.

So basically I can use the latest WiiMod v3.2 with some enhancements/changes/code removal that is fully compatible with my setup right now.

What's new bud, working on stuff still?

What's new bud, working on stuff still?

Oh yeah, almost done.

Joostin creates new project files for the icons he was supposed to make months ago.

 

[JoostinOnline]

Okay, I've gotten back into doing gfx stuff, and I'm sorry to the guys who never got the requested icons. If you still want an icon for an app, please re-request it.

I've just finished the final version of the Trinux icon:

Joostin, could you kindly create homebrew icons for the HackMii Installer and RetroArch Wii please?

thanks

 

[JoostinOnline]

Matriculated already created an excellent one for the HackMii installer:

I'll make one for RetroArch Wii.

 

[JoostinOnline]

I made two, but I'm not especially happy with either:

If you'd like me to try again (suggestions are welcome), or make some changes to the above versions, just let me know.

 

[DoctorWhosThat]

like you just said, it's not the best... but it'll have to do.

I don't want to settle, this isn't a relationship dammit! Now tell me what changes you want.

 

[DoctorWhosThat]

ok, sorry... i can only suggest doing something similiar to the original logo as featured on libretro.com.

I was just teasing you (I thought the "settling for someone in a relationship" thing was a give-away), but I do want to make an icon that is to your satisfaction. I'm done for the night, but I'll get a fresh start tomorrow. If you (or anyone else) have any other ideas, please post them.

The most common problem I have with making icons is the limited space. 128x48 just isn't enough pixels to do what I want most of the time. If I had more room, I'd include all the systems that it supports and do something with that. With long names like "RetroArch" and "Devolution", I barely have any space left at all, unless I make the font super tiny.

 

[DoctorWhosThat]

ah, ok. fair enough. lol

Hey joostin since your taking a break from nintendon't how about some nice nerve-calming new icons like I dunno WiiMod Lite I suppose or something else to your liking lol.

Sure. I'm planning on releasing Settings Editor GUI v2.0 (I think Wii U owners will like it a lot) later today, but I'll work on a WiiMod Lite icon after that. Do you want it based on the original WiiMod icon I made?
