You're already in the contest if you're adding new icons - you're currently in 10th place!

I'm aware, just wanted to be sure. :p

Your images are both the wrong sizes...

May as well get this one out of the way:
The Lost Vikings 2 - HUD

I guess I'll repost the tool I made to automatically fix basic icons. It automatically centers the image and gives the option to resize it. It's not flawless, but it helped me crank out 200+ icons in an afternoon once.

Also, I accidentally the yoshi's island GBA page.

I meant to upload these:

Baby Mario

Yoshi

Yoshi Transformations

Edit: Or is it supposed to do that? That's confusing, I specifically chose the right ones this time.

Refresh.

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Jeff - 07-17-2014

Oh. Non-crisis averted.

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Dazz - 07-17-2014

Only thing to note - you've got an over-double sized sprite for Mario there, which you ripped from the previous icon. Remember that we're trying to improve the icons, so if it isn't fitting well with our new guidelines, you shouldn't use it still, even if it's on the site currently. It'll just be an icon we have to go back and fix later (which I'll be doing now, in fact.)

In the future, remember that we're looking for consistency, something the site doesn't have as it stands.

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Jeff - 07-17-2014

I've been trying to stay conscious of sizes. I just did The Lion King on genesis. Backgrounds and larger character sprites are original size, and in-level sprites are double. It looks fine right, even if some sprites would fit if it was original size?

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Dazz - 07-17-2014

Yeah, that sort of thing is totally fine - it's just making sure you don't do 3x+, or really small sprites next to double sized sprites, you know?

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Magma MK-II - 07-18-2014

I thought I might as well make some icons, so here they are:

RE: The VG Resource Icon Renovation - Rystar - 07-19-2014

Here's my entry into this. This okay? ^^

EDIT: Whoops, just noticed two pixels I forgot to remove when I made these. I should've changed the colours on the sheets to something easier to spot XD
