AutoIt Icons

[Skitty]

Hmm, I've played with the bevel and emboss feature a lot and never really could get that type of effect, one reason is because changing the reflection angle will also change the reflection angle for every single image that has the bevel and emboss effect active, never really could figure out why it does that though.

[ProgAndy]

For simple shapes you can get a nice effect without any filters, just using gradients and a few layers is enough:

- outer bevel: some gradient (gray - black)

- border (nearly black)

- inner bevel: gradient (black - grey)

- content area

Thanks for the info progandy, I'll be experimenting with this and see what I get.

I've tried creating a wallpaper that would look cool.

Nice wallpaper but for me at 1080p its blurry

Challenge accepted.

How's this?

My creativity level isn't very high on the spectrum you know...

Obviously.

Do not try and bend the spoon. Instead... only try to realize the truth. There is no spoon. - You know who said that? Some kid. What does it mean?

Obviously you're saying I suck. But hey, I haven't seen you post an icon

That is very very small.

I don't think she meant you suck... more that the designs posted so far lack inspiration and originality. Forget the existing icon and come up with something new (there is no spoon).

It's the regular 1080p file size (1920 x 1080) .

Maybe a different mirror?

[Chimaera]

Thats sharpened it up a bit thx

[AlmarM]

On request by Chimaera, I created this one.

Many thanks to AlmarM for taking the time to help me out and make it how i wanted.

Hello all, before I go any further I must apologise for my attempt at drawing, I know it sucks (and no colour it's only a scan of a pen drawing!), I can barely draw a straight line...

Hopefully someone with atristic ability will understand what I was hoping to acheive and produce a proper graphic.

The idea behind this is that the A of AutoIt represents a cauldron with fire in the window of the A, then a bubbling 'stew' with a large ladle (with the version No.) ready to stir up some hot smokin' code.

That's too Java.

Still more creative than anything here.

You know what, upon looking at it again and relating to your comment, it does seem Java'ey, still if drawn professionally with colour etc, with the fire in the cauldron and the stew etc it would look a lot less like a cuppa!

Actually, when I first conceived of the idea I had drawn an A very simnilar to the above but without the 'fire' in the window and instead of a stew and ladle it had a large gemstone somewhat in the shape of a crystal ball, possibly in either a red or green colour. (All this is in my minds eye in a realistic 3D kinda way) after I had drawn it with my far less than artistic abilities it looked crap, so I didn;t even bother scanning it, maybe I should have for variance sake ?)

. . .

I'm back, after a 15-20 min break mid post, (I went web searching for a graphic crystal gem/ball that might illustrate my idea) and I found the following which has me now thinking, what if instead of a coloured crystal gem/ball, the 'A' had a clear ball like the pic but with a printout of an AU3 script in it and the AI ver. No. also in the ball similar to the way the graph line is ?

Thank you for the positive comment.
