I was linked this tutorial, http://www.vg-resource.com/showthread.php?tid=6534. But it may now be outdated. Is there an active tutorial for making this updated icons? Or is this old one still work? I am very confused in how icon making works when uploading.
My apologies if this is off topic, and I shall remove this post if its incorrectly placed.
That tutorial is for the old icons. For the new icons, all you have to do is paste the sprite/model/texture into a transparent 148x125 PNG.
Hey, Petie and I were chatting about the Nymph icon and he agreed to the idea of it being replaced for decency reasons.
Here are two variations I created. Which one do you like?
The second one seems sufficient. I've updated the icon and changed the sheet name, and I also went ahead and updated Giddy Jones's other icons.
I was thinking maybe put censor bars over the parts instead.
Censor bars would imply that those are on the sheet itself, which they aren't. I could use Giddy Jones's new icon, but really I don't see an issue with the current one (which is still more SFW). The reason it was only brought up now is due to the icon renovation and it was noticed because you updated it in this thread.
Yeah, true, but I don't really like the one that has most of the sprite cut off.
I suppose in terms of consistency it does sit a bit out of place. I can use the one Giddy made, but I would like input from some more people before I do that.
I think Giddy Jones' icon is better.
This is my opinion, but maybe the area between her legs could use a little more cover?

I think it's fine. Nothing is clearly visible or anything.
Agreed. Hips are not X-rated.
I was talking more about the crotch area, actually. The hips are fine.
I know - there is no actual crotch shown though. Only her hips. Pictures of people wearing underwear or jeans that low would not be considered x-rated, and thus I see it as being OK. There are no actual privates being shown.
I see what E-Man's saying but yeah, what's shown is not quite that low and Giddy's covered the worst bit.
In any case I've gone and replaced it, that should be fine.
