The wall-walking robot walking on the II...
I'd never have thought of that. Pure genius.

lol yes, the only thing I've found photoshop cannot do is draw a straight line (or any prefab shape) without making them look all fuzzy when they get rasterized, but MSpaint has an absolute mastery over making perfectly clean lines :dopefish

Since nearly all the computer drawing I do is pixel art I find I don't need Photoshop ever. MSPaint is great for pixel drawing since it has a sufficient set of shape/line-drawing tools and doesn't rasterize or anything like that.

I've made a full set now, can't believe I forgot about Keen Dreams. I ended up not being able to decide between two versions of the keen 1 icon so you get both. Masking was fixed, as some of the sprites weren't completely transparent where they needed to be, layer order was also fixed on keen 6.

[quote="Fleexy"][quote="VikingBoyBilly"]If by "draw" you mean "photoshopping", yes, they are indeed quite awesome :p[/quote]

No, I use MSPaint. :old

It actually works pretty well for me. I use it for all my mod graphics, and pretty much anything else. If I want a GIF animated, I make the frames in MSPaint, name them f?.bmp, then use GMSprite ( :barf ) to stick them together. Unfortunately, GIFs generated by GMSprite only animate once :O :( .[/quote]

Fleexy rocks at MSPaint

Nice continuation. Thanks. And again the boundary between official and Ceilicks unofficial episode becomes thinner.

I figured out that you can use the line tool with it already being "rasterized" from the start (just click the third box thingy at the top left and turn off anti-aliasing), but it still looks like a vector outline when you're holding down the mouse over it so it takes some guesswork.

For all fans who feel like Commander Spleen, check out the new file on my server, keen7_x.ico :-)

edit: removed broken link.

If you would like to have more icons (Keen Y and 0), just tell me. For futher icons I need further information: I found Keen X and Keen 0 (with this strange symbol in the name) on the web. But I couldn't find the "original" version of Keen Y (just the "extra dark"). Is there an original version of keen Y? Where can I get it?

Have fun. :-)

Big thanks to Aroenai for starting creating these great icons! :dopefish
