Even the game have enogh rewievs. its not in a good rate but all rewiever talk the good the game is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feneur Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 \build\resources in SVN should hold what's needed. I would guess that if you/someone could convince them to use 0ad.appdata.xml would be the best as that would mean that they would have the updated information etc if something changes (if anyone wants more info on it, this Trac ticket: http://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/2202 has a couple of useful links).

Lion.Kanzen Posted March 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yeah, I need test to real size. Is not hard to change, is basically the logo over a button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idanwin Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I was thinking something along these lines:(I'm not very good at this)I think a design like this fits their icon set better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I think t about hat color (yellow golden) but I say to myself hmmm, no this can be good for special version. And is good idea use only a section of logo. In photography is called crop. I was do before with Aristeia and FES. May be I can try change the crop of logo. But with color are fine.My color selection...Red: is a bold color that commands attention! Red gives the impression of seriousness and dignity, represents heat, fire and rage, it is known to escalate the body's metabolism. Red can also signify passion and love. Red promotes excitement and action. It is a bold color that signifies danger, which is why it's used on stop signs. Using too much red should be done with caution because of its domineering qualities. Red is the most powerful of colors.Blue: The color of the sky and the ocean, blue is one of the most popular colors. It causes the opposite reaction as red. Peaceful, tranquil blue causes the body to produce calming chemicals, so it is often used in bedrooms. Blue can also be cold and depressing. Fashion consultants recommend wearing blue to job interviews because it symbolizes loyalty. People are more productive in blue rooms. Studies show weightlifters are able to handle heavier weights in blue gyms.Possible new icon color-Purple: The color of royalty, purple connotes luxury, wealth, and sophistication. It is also feminine and romantic. However, because it is rare in nature, purple can appear artificial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
