RestlessRodent Posted June 30, 2010 Hello, Strawberry Doom needs somebody's help and needs a logo (since I suck at anything graphical). * The logo should be a strawberry, nothing realistic, nothing too cartoony. Maybe some kind of strawberry of some sort. * Preferred to be at least 2048x2048 and at most 5012x5012 in a non-lossy format. * Should be 32-bit (RGBA) * Allow me to use the logo everywhere I see fit. * Allow me to copy the logo and change it around (i.e. scale it). * If you include a shadow, be sure to make a shadowless copy. * SVG or PNG. * A free logo, which is DFSG compatible. Once you make the icon, copy the icon and make it all moldy (to resume my play on my shitty ancient Strawberry Doom setup icon). Why such a high resolution? So it can be scaled down, don't want to be caught by any OS doubling it's icon resolution again. You'll be credited/copyrighted! Thanks. EDIT: More details 0 Share this post Link to post
Super Jamie Posted June 30, 2010 I will license you my custom logo for $50. It also doubles if you ever want to make a sourceport called Apple Doom. 0 Share this post Link to post

I have fixed your nice logo to be compatible with specs (5012x5012x32) http://prboom-plus.sourceforge.net/77104442_fixed.png I did it for free. 0 Share this post Link to post
fraggle Posted June 30, 2010 Try flickr, that's where I found the photo that I used for the Chocolate Doom logo. A lot of the stuff on there is CC licensed, though in my case I had to ask permission first. 5012x5012 sounds a bit excessive though. Unless it's converted from an SVG I think it's unlikely you'll get something in that high resolution. 0 Share this post Link to post

Have you considered keeping it simple and use a strawberry cone for the icon? a tasty-looking one, not like chocolate's, which looks like a big hunk of...less appetizing chocolate ice cream. 0 Share this post Link to post

Gez Posted July 7, 2010 So 5012 isn't a typo? 512x512 would make sense. 1024x1024 too. 2048x2048, sure, that too. If you want something huge, the power-of-two size would be 4096x4096, or 8192x8192, or 16384x16384, etc. 5012 pretty much comes nowhere in the picture. 0 Share this post Link to post

That way it can be scaled down and never scaled up (and if it's SVG it won't matter). This is so that the icon looks correct and not all blurred on systems that take very large icons (such as Vista+ or Mac OS X). 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted July 7, 2010 Aren't icon files limited, fixed-resolution bitmaps to begin with? AFAIK each OS handles them differently, and with its own formats e.g. Windows uses ICO files and embedded resources in .exes or .dlls, these can't be just any resolution and any image format. You can sort of plaster a random image file as a "folder logo" but that's not the same thing as an icon. Let alone that it will be ridiculous if you end up with an icon that's larger in file size from the program itself. 0 Share this post Link to post

exl Posted July 3, 2016 Here's a quick attempt + some variations. Any of them interesting enough? And a juice box because Photoshop is amusing. 0 Share this post Link to post
