+Tante.Hossi 7 Posted March 15, 2017 We need some new icon for the newest category Flags of the World. Which pixel artist wants to create one? I would say it should fit to the already existing flag icons Flags of Organisations Municipal Flags How about the same 3 flags with a globe in the background? Quote Share this post Link to post

I would say it should fit to the already existing flag icons Flags of Organisations Municipal Flags How about the same 3 flags with a globe in the background? Maybe use the globe with only the lat/long lines, instead of land masses and oceans? Might show up better -- IDK Or maybe change the colors of the flags so they pop. I am having trouble seeing green and blue flags against a green and blue background. BUT -- I'm not an officer, so I don't have a vote Edited March 15, 2017 by Benchmark Blasterz Quote Share this post Link to post

+Benchmark Blasterz 65 Posted April 12, 2017 Now that the Global Transmitter category is up and running - very popular - it's time to think about a unique category icon. I was thinkingabout this idea: a cool three-legged lattice transmitter tower with lightning bolts at the top, on a globe. Thoughts? Quote Share this post Link to post

Thank you Razalas for taking the time to propose an icon for the new categories, so quickly! For the hourglass, I find the colors a bit dull personally. I know it's not easy to make tiny icons ... I have suggestions, but if this is not possible, the first proposal, the clearer will be very well Would it also be possible to place uprights on either side of the hourglass and a more round shape of the glass?

I guess I should have seen this sooner. Not sure how I missed this thread. Didn't know you guys were waiting on me for approval. So here's my thoughts. Based on other existing benchmark categories, and following the icons they have (Canadian Benchmarks, Portugal Geodetic Points, and others for example) they seem to have the writing above the benchmark icon. I think it would be best if we try and follow that route just to be in the norm. If it's possible, the word "Latin" should be above the benchmark icon. Another option is to have both "Latin" and "America" on it as well. With "Latin" being above the benchmark and "America" being below. Not sure if having two spaces for these words would make the icon appear too small or not. If that's too much to ask, then the one razalas has in the previous reply would do just nicely. Either of these options would be alright with me. Thanks for your hard work razalas and wayfrog. Much appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post
+Tante.Hossi 7 Posted September 29, 2017 Again we need new category icons for the 2 newest categories.

I don't know how to draw in pixels, but I would think that a sign with left and right arrows and maybe a stream on the sign would give a good visual idea of the category. Many divides are dry.
