Here comes Igor!
I used Uvenlord's saw. I hope it's permitted.
If the old Gettheref, Wizard, and Apoth icons would been used in the new client, this could be considered as a complete set. However, maybe,
More will come soon...
Cheers,
RS |

@RamonSalazar: I think you should remove the "table" you have below all the icons, it adds nothing, really. The bloody ToolSet is nice, but a tad too "busy" (too many tools in there, cannot be seen clearly), the "master chef" icon should be a cauldron rather than a pan I think. Or perhaps a pie ? Halflings love pies after all. The beauty of Uvenlord's icons are their simplicity. They can be beautified somewhat (as with the red cross) but should stay as simple as possible. I'd rather take the fork and spoon symbol for instance. A steeming cauldron is a nice idea though (it's the smells that distract the opposing players) - IF you can do it in a simple, easy to recognize form. See what I mean ? Other than that your icons do look nice per se. And no, I don't want to use the old icons for GetTheRef and the Wizard. I like the crossed out whistle much better. The "apothecary" red cross could be on a first aid kit (a white suitecase) to fit your current set better.
Just from the top of my head ... keep up the good work! |

Here they are! Thanks for the advices.
I figure out something for the remaining three in the next few days.
Cheers,

The red cross is great! I don't see any reason to do another by myself (a first aid kit or stg). But maybe i will give it a shot if i will have time.
To tell the truth its hard to figure out better than the crossed whistle, however i think the edges of it are to strong.
I thought about a wizard hat for the wizard, but i'm not sure its symbolic enough.
Hmm, ideas? |

As with Kalimars screenshot, you can see that the icons are placed on a blue or red background.
Therefore, the black frame around each icon is a must have imho. Especially when the icon has a red or blue color itsself.
I'm not so happy with the whistle myself. Its the icon with the least quality in this set. |

That is great! I'll take that. The cookpot looks abit too modern however (a witch cauldron comes to mind) and I would prefer the single saw (perhaps bloodied) over the full toolbox. I do like the moneybag a lot and I'm somewhat undecided on the beerglass ... |

Hi Ramon,
one little thing: could I have the inside of the wonderful "GetTheRef" icon in white ? I think it will be clearer on a red or blue background that way. And signs do have a white background so from a symbolic point of view it'll be fine.
Do you already regret to have started this ?
Thanks for all your work,
Kalimar |

good job, now they look really nice. i think we might have some serious competition though.
@ramonsalazar the icons you made look great! will be looking forward to a complete set...
(mabye a single lightning bolt might look to simple compared to your other pictures but a little background can fix that otherwise i'm all in)
looks like the weels are turning now so i'll play some tonight instead of making icons
