New Category Icons

[+MountainWoods 24]

Okay. Using information from a site like FindAGrave hardly allows one to Armchair Waymark. Not without stealing photos from FindAGrave, which would, with a bit of investigation, be detected. I've contributed the same photo to FindAGrave and as a Waymark, but never taken any one else's photos from FindAGrave to make a waymark.

 

Yeah, I realize you were just joking. So was I when I made the Armchair Waymark icon. Just couldn't resist, after the tongue-in-cheek discussion we had on it in a different thread.

 

I tried to make a Drive By Waymark icon, but just couldn't come up with anything. I'm not that creative.

 

Now back to your regularly scheduled icons ...

The NEWLY-APPROVED category Fraternal Order of Eagles needs a custom icon! I would like it to be the older F.O.E. logo of the eagle (below) , NOT the new logo (which I don't care for that much).

 

 

Can rikitan, razalas and lumbricus do their magic and make this happen?

 

Much obliged!

We need an icon for our new category Electric Bike Charging Stations.

Maybe something simular to the Electric Car Charging Stations.

 

Who wants to create one?

 

[+Die Nemos 6]

What about this?

THX Die Nemos.

 

I copied the link of your icon to my profile page on Waymarking.

Now its shows how it looks on Waymarking.

Looking good for me but I will contact all Officers what they think about it.

We keep in touch about this.

Thx so far for your quick work.

Grtz John.

If you like it too it would be a pleasure if you can make the icon, made by Die Nemos, as our category icon.

New category = Electric Bike Charging Stations

Grtz & thx John.

I have uploaded this icon.

Thanks for the upload!

But I'm still mission the new icon at the category grid - I only see the general old icon.

[+Tante.Hossi 7]

We need another new category icon for our newest category Bobsleigh Chutes and Mountain Slides.

Maybe someone can create one. Thanks!!

I have tried to create an icon showing a chute on a hill but all my attempts were a failure, the i saw a sign in the picture on the category description and, as always maintaining same style and based on the existing icons, i have created this one:

What do you think?

 

@Waywizard

Could you please upload this icon to the category Bobsleigh Chutes and Mountain Slides.

Thanks a lot!

And thx to Die Nemos for making it.

The Pergolas category and the Fraternal Order of Eagles category are still in need of new icons. Although I appreciate the effort BK_Hunter did for F.O.E. I still think it needs fine tuning. Anybody here want to take a stab at them?

[+lumbricus 41]

For the new category "Space Invader Art" I think about this Icon

 

The alien is okay, but in my opinion we have to change the colors. The icon should fit to the other icons in the category grid. The neon green doesn't fit very well. Black backgrounds are very rare, too. Maybe you can work out some more color combinations. Very important is the size of the icon. Yours is too big. Download one of the grid, this is the size they must have.

was it rejected, or has it not been updated after you submitted it?

[+Alfouine 52]

It not has been updated after i submitted here and it's the third time

 

I sent a message to Waymizard after his validation of Tintin's icon but no answer.

The icon for the android category is being adjusted. The color of the above one is "brighter" than the normal palette of the icons and also will be changed to gif format. I expect the adjusted icon will be uploaded in next few days.

[+Alfouine 52]

Ok no problem to change color and format, and it's space invader category.

 

@Benchmark Blasterz A great thanks

[+Waywizard 0]

... it's space invader category.

 

 

oops sorry about the misnomer. My wizard brain couldn't think of the right category name, though I would get it to the right one in the end.

[+NW_history_buff 10]

The Pergolas category has been in need of a new icon for its category for months now.....

 

Anybody want to create one?

[+Waywizard 0]

Ok no problem to change color and format, and it's space invader category.

 

 

The changes are more significant so wanted to post here before I upload to category.

 

[+Alfouine 52]

Ok perfect for me, better than my proposal

Andreas -- Fishing ports was just approved . . . Just sayin'

[+Tante.Hossi 7]

Hey both new icon proposals look great. I like them.

[razalas 29]

Today i had some free time to finaly post some waymarks and to read the foruns

 

After reading the last posts in this thread and as i love pixel art i could not resist to try to create some icons

 

Here they are:

 

- Fraternal Order of Eagles

 

This is a difficult one to draw in pixels, after a few attempts this was the result.

 

- Battery Powered Personal Transport Rentals

 

First I tried this one

but i didn't like it that much, so i tried some similar to the Bicycle Rentals and i think it's better.

 

- Commercial Fishing Ports

 

I tried to maintain the same line of design of similar categories.

The boat seen from the side:

Or the boat seen from the front:

 

What do you think?

Any suggestions to change or improve the designs?

[+Alfouine 52]

Excellent job, i call fishing port leader to give to you a reply.

[+NW_history_buff 10]

I like what lumbricus did for the Pergolas category and what razalas did for the FOE category. Let's go with both of them. Nice job

[+Benchmark Blasterz 65]

All these new icons are excellent I'm looking forward to seeing them on the grid!! I really like the fishing ports one

What is the way forward, to put this icon

I will contact developers to run job that syncs them between servers. The next time you access them they might be the opposite, they were loaded at different times and randomly ended up on different servers. The syncing is supposed to be automatic but not happening.

Yesterday the Fishing Port icon appeared normally for us, then it disappeared, then later on it appeared again so we thought it was OK. This morning it has gone again, replaced by the words Commercial Fishing Ports. When that is clicked on, a black screen shows with the following: The image "http://www.Waymarking.com/images/cat_icons/Fishing Ports.gif" cannot be displayed because it contains errors.

BTW, we loved the little fishing boat icon, hope it comes back and stays back.

Now that the Religious Buildings Multifarious category is on and receiving waymarks I have tried to create an icon for it.

 

I have tried to create a generic religious building whith out using a bell tower or cross to make it more "Multifarious" and and not focused on any religion.

 

Rounded top:

 

Pointed top:

Razales, you are so talented. Are you a graphic designer, seems we read that somewhere?

 

We both like the pointed top, as this is more representative of a "place of worship"

Thank you.

I'm not a graphic designer. I just love love love Pixel Art and that retro look.

 

The pointed top one is my favorite too.

[+Tante.Hossi 7]

The new icon for the new Religious Buildings Multifarious category is online.

Thanks to waywizard!

 

But there are still some icons missing:

Pergolas, Fraternal Order of Eagles, Battery Powered Personal Transport Rentals.

 

Please take an eye on those icons!! We need them!!
