Direction arrows: not like that, separate arrow. Just some arrows to be used in combination with other signs, with the arrow about the height of a line of text and the same color.
Without a background border, the user can just offset to the portion they want.
Example: <-- OFFICE -->
Example: <-- DOCK -->
Example: <-- SHIPPING -->
I have tested some of these, but was not happy yet with the combinations. Unfortunately it would take 20 minutes to fetch the
textures, and post them up.
Z for zombie: The 'Z' is fine, but put it on a commonly available sign that would be found everywhere, like the triangular poison sign or the exclamation mark sign. Even a wet floor sign with a big red 'Z' on it would be good. An easily recognizable sign obviously altered with a big red 'Z' is what makes the idea work. It does not work so well when the background sign is unknown and confusing.
Crushing man sign: That is somewhat similar. The version I remember shows the entire body, with the knees buckling and the back bent, on a yellow triangle. It took me a long time to figure out what it was because of the little red marks around a floating ball. It took a long time to realize that the line below was the rest of his body.
The strange border is distracting, a familiar plain yellow triangle would be less confusing. Would help to move the man higher, make him smaller, show more body, and only have two red marks.
Radioactive floor: I did not get the idea that the floor was radioactive. I don't have any ideas on how to indicate floor without actually printing "Radioactive Floor" on the sign. The man pic did not help, actually confused things.
