Hacking Unreleased Homebrew Channels icons

[Don Killah]

Hi guys.
Since i was packing my "ultimate sd card" that helps me install all the stuff i need on friends Wii, i noticed that several hombrews don't have icons.
So i decide to make my own ones.
Feel free to use them as you wish.

All the icons, the relevant meta.xml and boot.dol files along with photoshop template (psd) i used to create those icons in a single file:

Nice! They look good!

 

[fishears]

These are great. Thanks for sharing

'spose asking for meta.xml's is going too far...

 

[Nuke85]

Looks awesome, thanks for sharing man!

 

[SilverSurfR]

Nice work. There are also a bunch you can use @ WiiBrew.org.

There's a Black Glass Style by Simon I used to make some for myself. He has a nice Photoshop PSD file you can use here.
They icons look like this...

 

[Don Killah]

yep i know, but you have to register in order to edit the wiki... too lazy to to do this.

 

[richiefs]

I think it is IOS 51 and not IOS 5.
Am I wrong?

 

[fishears]

Hey DK!
You rule, my friend, you rule.

 

[Deleted User]

Don Killah, any chance for a .psd?

Could do lots of interesting stuff (Waves,

)

@richiefs:

Hey Don, not to butt in on your thread, but I took the background you used from the HBC icons thread, and I added a few of my own for a couple of icon-less apps I have:

DELETED, CHECK MY OTHER POST

I tried to clean up the font a bit so it stands out more.

 

[Don Killah]

At least you could have kept the original font size, that way we could have a decent image set.
Plus it seems that you removed the "bobbles"?
Not a bad attempt though, we're all about sharing, so congrats for the nice work mate.

Dude this icons are amazing they fit in exactly with the homebrew channel, can you possibly make an icon for each homebrew using this style, would be grateful.
