I'm currently in the process of making some Desktop icons
for the eventual Zombie-Panic desktop shortcut but i've
run out of decent idea's.

Here's my latest attempt (I'm not very creative)



(Ignore the crappy whiteness on the left hand-side, thats my dodgy "cut")

Icon can be downloaded here:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pete.taylor2/images/icons/

(I apologise for the size, but this is the standard XP icon size. (64*64)
I can alter the size to pretty much any dimensions + the current
icon size (64*64) looks fine on the desktop)

If you have any cool Zombie pictures then please
attach them or email them to me (dy357lx@gmail.com)
and i'll make them into an icon for this wonderul mod.

Try to remember image copyright laws etc (i.e don't post
other peoples images without permission, blah blah blah.)

That one.

Yeah that one would work. I'll fool around in Photoshop to see what I get.

I know this isn't the right size, but I thought it'd just be an idea. I could redo it so it is the right size, if needed.

Ok here's the progress so far:

Here's the icon image:


Here's the icon itself if you want to save it to your machine and view it
on your desktop. (Gives a better idea of how it'll look.)
Right-Click + Save As

Icon Dimensions are 64*64 - if the Dev team prefer
a different size then simply tell me and i'll resize them.
(Takes a few seconds.)

And then there were 3:

I used this image:


To create these:

(Remember that the best way to view them and get a good idea of
scale is to download them to your desktop. They're all roughly 15-20kb
in size.)


Right-Click And Save As
Original image with red "Z-P" text.


Right-Click And Save As
Original image with no text what-so-ever.

I thought i'd try it with and without text because 64*64 pixel images
don't seem to handle alot of text very well.

Oo, I just thought of an idea. How about just an eye by itself (so there was no background). I'll try that one later today.

You're going to provide me with an eye to make into an icon?
Much appreciated, Thanks
