Title: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 04:33:28 pm
We're making lots of new stuff lately, aren't we?

I, Omega Blademan, just made a new Favicon, that you've more than likely seen. Now, this is just a prototype, and I'm not totally sure why I'm leaving it up, but if anyone had suggestions for a better one, you could PM one of the Admins.

What is it and where is it?


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 04:41:37 pm
I was afraid of that...

On IE, it may take a few days to update... Another reason why I personally prefer Firefox...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 04:42:18 pm
Still doesn't answer my questions.

That. You'd normally see it near the URL, or by a bookmark/tab, but IE is being stubborn as usual.

Also, what'd you edit out/into my post Rahkshi?


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 04:46:07 pm
So you are talking about that little symbol with the green lettering saying MLNO with the red background.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 04:47:02 pm
XD I stickied it after I saw your response :P

But, that actually EDITED my post? 0o Or did you put stickied and then removed it? :P

Yeah, that's it Hypr. Better than a blank sheet of "Paper".


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 04:47:35 pm
Yea it is better.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 04:50:12 pm
It looks like it was made in paint.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 04:56:03 pm
Paint/Favicon generator that Nem linked to/The GIMP to get it to GIF so I could Upload to maj and actually get it on here :P Not the best, but it'll do I guess.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 05:01:13 pm
Of course you used a program that is specifically made for that reason.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 05:03:29 pm
Didn't work exactly the same as what I had expected, but meh, it worked none-the-less :P


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 05:04:49 pm
Don't worry about it Omega. It looks fine to me.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Destroyer Behemoth on August 03, 2008, 05:07:06 pm
Not bad for a start... Our next goal is to make it represent the forum more, like something more MLN or Lego related...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 05:10:08 pm
Yeah, we need a mascot. One of our own, not Echo. And no pandas Hypr :P


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 03, 2008, 05:15:22 pm
I've got something better. Echo's face on a panda bear body with a ninja mask. I gotta try and have a little fun.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 03, 2008, 05:47:27 pm
XD Never expected that, you always are unpredictable Hypr ;)(In a good way)

But seriously, what should it be? Nothing that's already in there, something of our own...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 06:22:20 am
I am being serious. you never know what I am going to think of next. I am ADHD ;D (yay me)!


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: The Host on August 04, 2008, 07:21:57 am
It looks better than that piece of paper, except for now I can only see the favicon in this topic(IE...)


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 07:25:37 am
IE really does suck.

That'll work?


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 08:01:40 am
All I got to say to all the people who use IE, download FF right now.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 04, 2008, 08:25:31 am
Yeah, I'll back that up... Adblocker, tabs(Well, you already have tabs if you use IE7, but meh), new version out very recently, and more...

VTP: Maybe... But if it was a mini version of a mascot we had, like BZP, that'd be even better...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 08:28:49 am
Why not use my idea. It is the cute and cudley version of Echo, but he will kick your butt if you touch his bamboo.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 04, 2008, 08:55:29 am
... Uh... Maybe if we've got nothing else >>


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 08:58:40 am
How dare you disown my personal creation. It is the crossbreed of a panda bear (didn't say which type), Echo, and a ninja. He has nunchucks made of bamboo.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 04, 2008, 09:17:03 am
We kidna also need other suggestions for a mascot...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 04, 2008, 09:20:39 am
By mine would keeep the site alive. Who could keep a straight face at my creation.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 04, 2008, 09:24:17 am
Who says you need something funny to keep it alive?

But, yours is in consideration, but we need other ideas for a mascot >>


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: The Host on August 04, 2008, 11:31:15 am
How would I get FF...
 and as for a suggestion for a mascot: Phantomeme or VTP's... and possibly hyprs :P


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 04, 2008, 11:37:51 am
Through this link. (http://www.mozilla.com/firefox) Get FF3, it's very good, but WAS just released...

Ah its not showing up. ...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 13, 2008, 06:21:08 pm
Let me guess... IE? The .gif images as Favicons are unstable sometimes :-\


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 13, 2008, 07:29:16 pm
I still got 2 people for the awesome panda.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Dudebot5000 on August 13, 2008, 07:35:27 pm
That makes 2/112  ::)


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 14, 2008, 07:25:07 am
I still got 1 more person on my side than VTP does. It is actually 2/113 :P.

Try making it .jpg.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 14, 2008, 10:06:36 am
That won't work either I don't think, and for none of them :-\ It has to be either .ico, or .gif...  I've got an Ico version, but no-where to upload it to. Unless MLN Wiki and MLNO use the same icon. Then I could link to the Wiki's.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 15, 2008, 03:46:08 pm
I would love it if someone could make a rough draft of my idea.

Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 16, 2008, 01:19:08 pm
AFAIK, only .gif or .ico...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: ab§olute_Z3R0 on August 16, 2008, 01:21:07 pm
Oh OK. Well I don't know then.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 16, 2008, 06:03:26 pm
Could somebody make a rough draft of my idea. My idea is a panda with echo's head wearing a ninja mask.

I'm a bit slow, but here:(http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee17/_hidatchi/echo-panda.gif)
Somehow, I don't think so...


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 27, 2008, 09:59:57 am
Where is his bamboo nunchucks.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: MÆLXTRØM on August 27, 2008, 01:15:13 pm
You try putting nunchucks in 256 pixels. :P


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 27, 2008, 01:17:53 pm
Not to mention 15 by 15 pixels :P


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Jas765 on August 27, 2008, 03:59:19 pm
Actually, it's 14x16, but I get your point.
What is the dimension meant to be?


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 27, 2008, 04:11:09 pm
I do not know, but try to ask Omega.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 27, 2008, 04:13:59 pm
15x15.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 27, 2008, 04:16:41 pm
there you go Jas. So could you pleas add the bamboo nunchucks?


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 27, 2008, 04:18:22 pm
You only get one more pixel, so you probably couldn't add them... *Shrugs*


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 27, 2008, 04:24:47 pm
Dang. I wanted him to be cute, fluffy, and dangerous >:D :'( 4:).


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on August 27, 2008, 04:35:23 pm
Sorry :-/ Hey.... I've got an idea, but I'll have to talk to the other admins first.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: Jas765 on August 27, 2008, 04:39:20 pm
(http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee17/_hidatchi/echo-panda-1.gif)
That's the new version.

I've also got my own one, but it's probably too simple and obvious:(http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee17/_hidatchi/echo.gif)
That's echo, if you didn't realize.


Title: Re: New Favicon
Post by: hyprgig on August 27, 2008, 04:53:06 pm
It is cute and fluffy, but no danger *puts head back & starts to cry*
