Hi,

I am a sufferer of perfectionism and would like to make some proposals to improve the icon of Baldur's Gate 2 EE:
(I have Used the White background to give a better ideas of the changes)

The Standard Icon:

- Add shading like BG1EE icon:

- Rotate slightly the icon to get a better use of space

Adding the base of BG1EE Icon on the back:

    The tilt looks goofy to me, but I like the base.

    I like the shadow + base version best. The rotation looks somehow wrong.

    I honestly can't tell the difference, except for the tilt, which looks a bit silly.

    @Joey, I said earlier that the original icon was very nice, only I think it could be improved in some details.

    Taking a cue that the devs have done in beautiful BG1EE icon you see clearly that lacks of the shading, I also proposed to add a common basis between the two...

    The tilt si only for make a better use of the 256x256 pixel space, not for a personal liking...

    @Dee, These are not proposals to disqualify your work but to perfect it yet
