New icon for Near Infinity

argent77

Near Infinity uses a dated low resolution application icon practically since the very beginning of the tool. That's why I'm thinking about replacing it with a modernized version or even a completely different icon.

Since I'm not the most artistically skilled person, I'd like to ask you for ideas or samples I can use as the new application icon for Near Infinity. The icon should preferably be 64x64 pixels or larger, but at the same time it should still be recognizable at sizes of 32x32 and smaller.

This is what it currently looks like (magnified version):



To start off I'm presenting my own creation, which is a modernized version of the original (in different sizes from 128x128 down to 16x16 pixels):



I'm looking forward to your suggestions. (Edit: I have posted the same topic here.)

Heh. Those glasses just make me want to say "I liked Near Infinity before it went mainstream."

I do like the new icon though.

I like the new items. And I'm fan of NI

I like it here is a concept I made - using the Infinity symbol, your pencil and 00FF00 for whatever reason, heh.

Interesting design. The 00FF00 is probably difficult to see on sizes of 32x32 or smaller though.

Something similar to @Cuv's design. :-)

Very nice. It's simple and elegant.

Cuv

@Troodon80 Mine was just a quick concept - your version is much cleaner, I like it

CoM_Solaufein

That sure is sexy

Cuv

Got another new one - me and @Troodon80 collaborated

argent77

This one is even better.

Here is a screenshot to get an impression what it looks like:

The @troodon80 and @cuv iteration looks fab.

Cuv

Wohoo! Looks great in the task bar!

I've remodeled NI's About dialog to show the new infinity icon:



Unless you come up with an even better design, I will integrate the current version into Near Infinity.

Very nice!

Really don't think we can do much better than this - Ship it! Heh
