    I started from scratch and made another Icon without all the pixelation.

    All this stuff is pure awesome!

    I still intend on making that media pack, but I really need any artists who want to contribute to send their work, along with attribution information, to:

    todd
    at
    the42nd
    dot
    com

    As you can see, I've gotten paranoid about those darned spam crawlers!

    I'm going to make a preliminary version for you guys, with attributions. It will include, thus far:

    A couple backgrounds
    Some icons.

    I'll make a new thread and post a linky soon. Also, don't be afraid to send me really huge, high-quality images. My 56k will slog through it, since it's for a good cause.

    It looks a little too scratched, there. Tone that down a little, maybe? It's almost hard to make out what it is.

    Not to be mean but can we expect a new 1.07 icon to come out anytime soon? Possibly a cross between the Brenodi Empire and the Northern Faction, cause that would be amazing!

    You mean like this one(I know it looks bad thats why I never shared it with the world). Also a little tank icon but sadly I cant make it any bigger.
    I tried to make some other NF-BE hybrid icons but they all looked horrible.

    If anybody has any ideas for a good icon i'm all ears. I would be glad to try and make more icons.

    I don't think, that your NF-BE-hybrid icon is that terrible.
    Just divide it vertically like DoD:S, not that cross...

    Ohhh what about an engineer tool! That would make a pretty cool icon.

    Maybe you can get bodrick's help with that (when he's back from vacation) as he has models all drawn up already.
