Awards (small W.I.P)

Shelley · 10-15-2006, 12:57 PM

Due to some positive feedback I've decided to work on some smaller award images. They are still very eary W.I.P and I'm sure they will be improved upon and tweaked as time permits. Instead of Icons to convey the awards I'm opting for a colour code system.

Anyway, Thoughts so far on the progress on the awards (which is 3 atm)

Edit: There will be smaller variants of this design included in the set for the awards to go in the postbit. The awards (Shown Below) would be placed in the profile area.

Nice work as always Shelley. What do you plan to add to them as you tweak your project?

Shelley · 10-15-2006, 03:51 PM

I'm planing on making 3 sets of colour orientated medals with each of the oloured medals to have their colour coded ribbon (if my maths correct that totals 27 awards) and smaller variations of the same amount so members can also implement the medal in the postbit area.

As always, I'm open to additonal ideas and suggestions so that the finalized set offers something different and unique back to the community so any input would be greatly appreciated.

very good work ..
its good suggestion might be like wen a Member get 3 Awards there should be a bigger award or something different wne he get the third one so it will mean he got three awards just like ranks.

A captain in army is with three stars on his shoulders but wen he become a major he gets only one Different big star so i was wondring if this can be done otherwise its cool.

Thank You,

imagine, who will be first to have the 27 awards ? you'll end like one of those old Russian generals, half the chest full with those ribbons and medals

Maybe in PS set some shiny on the medal, little twinkle ?

I'm not entirely sure how the award hack works so designing images around the hack might not be what you expected. My thoughts on the hack system were a member gets a specific award and if by the offchance they earn an additional award then you could apply an additional smaller image in the postbit area?

Excuse my ignorance with regards to the hack system and how it works so if theres any additional images you think need added then now (in the design stages) would be the best time to give your suggestion.

Again, as always, thanks for the suggestions and feedback.

well u can add awards in the hack system then u provide a path for the icon too like AWARD > is the big one
icon is the small one ( that shows in the postbit )
so i dont know i mean the image u put up there r small for a reguler award u make it a lil more smaller for the icons and it will look good in postbit

This was one of the early mockups but something like this (preview below)?

these r good i think the size of the red one should be the reguler ones and then after two awards there should a bigger one for the third one like other two so i think it can be used like that othwise no problems whtever u will make it i will try to work around it

Shelley · 10-16-2006, 02:03 PM

I'll agree with you that the smallest awards should be the size of the red variant shown in the preview (I got lazy and didn't resize the other two). I can certainly add in another size which are between the smaller variations and the larger variants if that makes life a little easy for you?

Great good work. Nicely Done

Shelley · 10-17-2006, 07:09 AM

The award medals are now completed and you can download them from my site (signature). This is one set I would like to keep exclusive to my site and hopefully the awards are something you expected and will benefit from.

On a side note, The award medals can and will definetely be improved upon and expect to see a version 2 of this pack very soon.

Eric · 10-17-2006, 07:32 AM

Thanks Shelley for the nice work, and as usual a very busy bee

Shelley · 10-17-2006, 07:39 AM

Too busy, I've taken on to much and I'm now paying the price. That aside, I'll try and get the current projects wrapped up and get to a more stable regime. Hopefully.
