<div class="IPBDescription">As opposed to old ones ;)</div>Now, which do we like more:

Old style that got bashed in favor of Jaciu's infested ones: <img src="http://www.kreation.org/~comprox/nsforums/topic.gif" border="0">

so, I went and made a new version all nice infested, some people liked it, but most didn't <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo--> : <img src="http://www.kreation.org/~comprox/nsforums/newtopicA.gif" border="0">
What do you all think? Old or new?

    I like the old infested ones.

    But personally I'd prefer it if the people could CHOOSE which ones to use. The possibility does lie within the Ikonboard forums.

    and thats why I said I am re-doing them, before MonsE said he didn't have the time to make ikonboards skinning, theming, etc thing working, but according to Flayra he now does, so I am making a marine and alien version of the buttons

    But what about the old buttons? I liked those.

    Whch ones do you mean by old? My new (and only) infested, Jacius infested, or my old style orange ones with Bob?

    I like this one the best: <img src="http://www.kreation.org/~comprox/nsforums/topic.gif" border="0">

    Sounds awesome having different themes to choose from! But how about another one besides the marine/alien that looks pretty much just like it does now, only with spiffy new orange bobbybuttons... like the one above. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Or a freaky red and black one who's lines blend seamlessly into my avatar? <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> Alright, alright...

    The ones that were (and some still are) <a href="http://www.natural-selection.org/cgi-bin/ikonboard/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=7;t=379;hl=buttons;st=0" target="_blank">here</a>.

    But if you don't have the old Bob ones... can you make the new ones stand out with the shiny edge along the top and side like the ones that we have now do? Even if you still have the old ones, can you make them stand up like the ones we have now do?

    Well Ken, we will see how it is to add differnt themes once they are up and running, if it is easy, I will make marine/alien of the vibrant orange ones... <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
    As for now (after greedo constantly  (only 2 he says, and he is likely right... I need to sleep more) complaining the rust needed more orange), the marine idea button:

    Constantly?  C'mon.  It was, like, twice.  At most.  And I do like that, if you can get all the buttons of the same feel.
  • Spyder_MonkeySpyder_Monkey Vampire-Ninja-Monkey Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 8Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    I agree with Ken, either that pick, or that last one you just posted. I kinda like the non-orange theme. I'm not an orange-hater, don't get me wrong... I just don't consider myself an orange 'enthusiast'.
  • realityisdeadrealityisdead Employed by Raven Software after making ns_nothing Join Date: 2002-01-26 Member: 94Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    That silvery one is kickin too... Gah, I like em both. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Whatever you do, I'm sure it'll be great. I just don't particularily care for the infested ones... even though Jacius' is pretty sweet.  <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    the old infestated ones looked great, I was wondering when you guys were gonna use them, I like that marine button, looks very hightech <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    orange! orange! orange!
    You can acually read it, it's clean, it's beautiful and stylish.

    so, once again all together:
    orange! orange! orange!

    Ok, seems people like the new marine button (reposting for the lazy people who don't read up):
    <img src="http://www.kreation.org/~comprox/nsforums/marine_new.gif" border="0">

    and now the alien version...
    <img src="http://www.kreation.org/~comprox/nsforums/alien_new.gif" border="0">

    If MonsE can add another skin easily, I will make the orange buttons too as they seem to be a wanted one also

    NOTE - host is doing some matienence, pictures should be back up soon!

    Why not all of them? (But maybe change the orange one so it sticks out all 3D like)

    I am going to do alien and marine buttons for sure, and the orange ones also, if it easy to add new themes once you got them working. I dont know if adding each theme is a huge pain in the ###, or once you got themes in general working, you can easily add more.
  • WurmspawnWurmspawn Join Date: 2002-01-24 Member: 19Members
    i like those last two you posted, especially the hive one
  • FlayraFlayra Game Director, Unknown Worlds Entertainment San Francisco Join Date: 2002-01-22 Member: 3Super Administrators, NS2 Developer, Subnautica Developer
    This is my ultimate situation:

    - The default skin stays like it is, or perhaps gets slightly spiffed up, but essentially remains the same

    - All forum-goers have the option of choosing a marine or alien skin.  The marine skin would be high-tech and based in blue (or metal), the alien skin would have infestation all over it and be based in orange.

    This would fit will with the new in-game look for the commander (blue tech tree buttons, blue mouse cursor and waypoints) and for the aliens as well.

    I say the more choices the better. And there isn't exactly that much of a limit to the number of choices you can have.
