Alright, so we could use a site icon. Why not bring out a bit of competetiveness to see who can produce the best icon possible? <br><br>Requirnements are that the file be 16x16, if i'm not mistaken, and 256 color. Aside from that, though, it's fair game! Post the image as an attatchment, and save it as any format you so choose, as it can most likely be converted afterwards anyway. <br><br>Have at it!

It's impossible to make a 16x16 image with more than 256 colors. It only has 256 pixels!<br><br>*gets started*<br><br>That was fun. Took me all of 5 minutes.

Shrinking something to 16x16 is difficult. That's why I do it pixel by pixel.

Nice, holyman! I was trying to do something similar, but gave up! <!--emo&:P--><img src='
http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo--> . and the shrinking thing, yeah... I tried doing it in 160 x 160 first, but shrinking that made a lot of problems, so i just tackled it in it's mall dimmensions head on.

Wait, why don't we just get 5hfifty to do a 16x16 version of the hat icon? Whatever larger image he shrunk down to 16x18 to make that, surely he could take and shrink it down a teense more.<br><br>And in case nobody noticed, "Ozy and Millie" itself has no icon either. Huh.

Here is mine.<br><br>And FFS, just say that your vote is for Holyman's for the time being. It's not like everyone else isn't thinking the same thing.
