Nation needs a very quick, pixel art type graphic.
This will be used for the icon people can go on under a person's avatar to get info about their characters in mabi/vindictus.

Details:

Should not be too high, max about 50 to 70 pixels.

It should be wide enough to fit very nicely under the avatar, without leaving too much empty space. Approx. 110 to 150 pixels.

The graphic itself should be something like an opened book, or unrolled scroll. Try not to make it specifically for the colors of this layout, make it more neutral so it will work on a wide variety of color themes.

Background should be transparent, preferably png, but if the color data fits in gif I don't mind.

4000 gold if it's done for today before I sleep (maybe 5 hours, not sure), 2000 any time after that.

More than one person can post their work, but only one will be chosen based on how suitable it is, and quality of the work.

Some general idea of what I mean by a scroll:
File:Entire Tanakh scroll set.png - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
but not as fat. 1 roll on each side, with paper rolled up around it, and opened in the same was as that image, except full frontal 2D view.

Go pixel artists go~ :onionru:

do you want any text on the scroll?
Osayidan wrote on 2010-05-27 22:16

If you can somehow make it say "information" or something like that, but without standing out too much (i.e: not black on white), it would be nice, otherwise just unreadable lines of faint scribblings to make it look like the 'paper' has something on it.

...or something. I haven't done pixel art before, so maybe my submission will inspire others to do better.

Looks good to me, I hate doing pixel art.

Will wait a while in case someone else wanted to post something they made.

I added some shading. I think it looks better :XD:

edit: if you use mine, I can give you the photoshop file which has an adjustment layer where you can easily change the color of the scroll, if you want.

The yellow one looked better in photoshop.

The words are getting kind of blurry..

That looks good too, but now I can't decide :< Time for a quick vote!

I think I still have some icons I designed for my friends text based MMORPG.

If I do, you can go through and take whatever you want (Theres about ~1000+ icons that were all designed in Illustrator).
Osayidan wrote on 2010-05-28 00:36

Maybe for other purposes but don't want to disappoint those who already worked on these. There's a vote thread for them now.

Personally I prefer info as text so it's visible at a glance and doesn't have to be clicked or moused over. Makes it easier to tell who I'm talking to since forum names don't always correspond to in-game names, nor would servers be immediately visible in discussions such as pricing and whatnot. It's just those few extra annoying seconds of work to find out something that could have easily been displayed plainly.

I did one, it's not super cool, but it's mabi themed!

Best icon: Nao's chest with Info across it.

Screw the scroll, tits or gtfo.
