Quote from Kazuni;50076:
I meant like, the colour of the knot and the colour of the background were kind of clashing, and the curly font makes it kind of much to look at. Now that I think about it, it's probably the difference between the font and the background, if it makes any sense :what:. The font is all clear and black/white while the background is more neutral and soft. It's cut off kinda suddenly, I guess, there's not a lot of breathing space between the items and the edge.
I know what you mean, and if I could've come up with a better background I would have. =P You got any ideas?

Hmm.. maybe make the logo a little more sepia toned, and change the font colour? Black/white is so contrast-y. That might make it settle into the background better so it doesn't look messy.
Oh oh, and uhm, maybe stretch it a little so the images aren't right up against the edge.

Not gonna increase the size 'cause Osay wants stuff SMALL AS HELL; I'll probably just nudge things over a pixel or two. Font color?!?! But that is so Mabi right there. D:

If you can make a 40x40 vindictus V logo that isn't all pixely and distorted like the one I tried to make was we can use that D:
or if vindictus ever does get a proper logo like mabi's celtic knot thingy.

I liked yours but they won't fit when mabi2 comes, I tested it with 3 icons of the same size as yours and it forced it onto a new row. So it needs to be even smaller still Dx Which is why I made the 40x40 ones.

Fill or opacity down? D: It's such a modern colour against a medieval background. There's just a lot of colours that don't flow as well over each other like the ones in the Vindy icon.

Your Vindictus icon, Osay. And I swear if I have to change it again I'll Mega Buster someone. <_<;;

I think you need to make it 100x larger and have a high detailed background :lol:

Just shrinking the actual full-size logo makes for an artifact-riddled mess, so I had to hand-draw the stylized interior. The shape is the logo, as accurate as it'll get 'cause it's the real logo shrunk down with a solid color overlay.

It should no longer look like crap now if you all refresh. Thanks to trigger for saving our eyes.

Oh, Osay, I was wondering if you might add a category to the Mabi info for humans to show their alignment, Paladin or Dark Knight. A similar system might be used in G12 for all players to indicate alignment with either Morrighan or Neamhain. Just a thought.

yup it's possible D:
Now that everything is kept neatly inside it's own little hidden box there can be a decent bit of info without any issues.
