Someone mentioned Brigitta and sexual favours....I am here!

Ahem, those buttons are neat, both awesome and suitably compact.

**ForceStealer** · 07/27/2018

Those are bitchin', well done

I also love our FF7-ized AIM, MSN, and ICQ buttons, it's a shame they're obsolete now, haha.

InterfaceLeader · 07/27/2018

Those icons look amazing! I love them!!

**f a n c y** · 07/27/2018

my date cancelled on me so, consequently, i suddenly had all this extra time to work on making more buttons

lemme tell you upfront that this set is a hell of a lot uglier than the first bc it was just me scribbling up some ideas and colouring n shit. it made me appreciate B 1000% more than i already did. ty for the simple and clean lineart babe.

anyway

BUTTONS PARTE DEUX

Right right, same deal, give me your thoughts. As you can see, I experimented some more with different button colours. Merci!

BforBrigitta · 07/28/2018

Omg BITCH!!!!! These are amazing! I loooooove them, especially how the meteor, Cosmo Canyon and Highwind buttons turned out. They're all you, babe! I can't tell you enough how beautifully your efforts have turned out.

Possible improvements:

1. The button colour - Lifestream Green may not be the best colour to go for as it might blend in with the Xf forum's default colour palette. I would suggest a contrasting colour, like purples/reds/oranges/yellows.

2. Try playing around with the width of the outer rim of the button, like making it a little thinner for a cleaner look?

I accept any and all offers for sexual favours for all past, present and future projects I participate in. If this is what it takes I'll draw the whole goddamn forum.

PS: Who dares cancel their date with you!? Lemme at em! Lemme at em!!!!!!

**Flare** · 07/28/2018

These are really looking nice!

My main thought right now, how do they look at much smaller sizes? Like, would the Cosmo Canyon show up clearly, for example?

Also what about a black feather or the black wing to represent Sephiroth instead of the Masamune?
Also also, could maybe do the ultima weapon (the one cloud wields) instead for admins, and make mods with the buster sword? Hmm idk idk! I'm flashing back to those updated cookie monster award trophies we made

Claymore · 07/28/2018

Amazing. These are going to look great on the new forum.

***Lex*** · 07/28/2018

Badges looking fantastic - can't individually talk about them now due to time constraints but I echo the concern about how they'll look shrunk down, and for that reason I think we should stick to the more iconic/ less detailed logos (soldier logo, masamune, buster sword, meteor, wolf etc) but we can trial them all and see how they look for sure before making any solid decisions in that respect.

I'll give more detailed input in a bit

Hell, why not!

Nah that’s a legit idear! And if we’re running with more simple shit, I’m thinking we could utilise the nail bar for either newbies or BANNED

They’re going to show up as 50x50 px on the forum eh? I’m gonna take a small nap, but later today (hopefully within the next couple of hours), I can just post everything scaled down.

**f a n c y** · 07/28/2018

^'lmfao @ i'll be back in a few hours lmao' i didn't even nap

anyway, here's how the icons looks 50x50

....I think

I uploaded it so that the file size wouldn't be resized but it's looking a widdle big to me. idk.

ANYWAY.

Put in Ultima, the bat, fixed up Cosmo Canyon. Shout out to Flare Bear for reminding me that she already made a render of Ultima and the nail bat for the TLS awards, so those are her works there. Shout out to my wife Brigitta for working so hard on the cosmo canyon lineart only for me to cut off most of it to show the dome LOL. Also shout out to wifey for suggesting the shit in the badges poke out a little out of the badges n shit. Makes it look moar dynamic.

IF Y'ALL WERE CURIOUS

Okay, so I went with B's suggestion to do just purple, red, yellow, and orange to pop against the lifestream colours.

I just came up with this random ranking:
Purple - Admins
Orange - Mods/Old Ones
Red - Donators
Yellow - Contributors/Lower Staff/Ex-Staff

BforBrigitta · 07/28/2018

YASSSS!!! That Cosmo Canyon badge can get itttt. Even if we forgo the Staff Emeritus title, we could probably allocate it to another title

**ForceStealer** · 07/28/2018

Mm, dat Ultima Weapon.

I love how they overflow a bit off the 'edge' of the icon.

Kingdom Hearts530 · 07/28/2018

Dats some F A N C Y (

) buttons!

I want one.

InterfaceLeader · 07/28/2018

They all look SO GOOD. And I didn't think the Cosmo Canyon one would look clear when it was shrunk down, but it actually looks great.

The only one I'm not sure about is the nailbat with the 'nope' circle, I think it obscures too much of the bat so it's not clear what it is (the fully visible nailbat is great).

Sexy yeah? I was honestly leaning towards either that or the Buster Sword to be the admit badge. Now I’m thinking Buster Swords might be for the mods whilst Admins get Ultima

And yessss, B was suggesting the objects ‘overflow’ completely. Maximises what you see.

LOL!

Hype!

OMG B AND I WERE LIKE DETERMINED TO MAKE COSMO CANYON WORK THIS MORNING/(her evening)!! It was looking hideous but I think we finally got it to a point that’s passable. Soooooo happy <3

B was saying something similar re:ban badge! Might just take the bat out entirely and just leave the ‘nope’ circle? Like, the banned folks don’t get anything special because FUCK THEM THEY’RE BANNED
