Title: Made a Bitcoin icon, PDF included Post by: bbulker on April 24, 2011, 04:06:20 AM Decided to take a shot at making an icon for anyone that wants to use it as a favicon or for your software. I made the icon using shapes so it can be expanded to great sizes without losing quality. I created all the sizes needed for an icon: 256, 128, 64, 32, and 16 pixels.

We need a good vector image of a btc symbol. Title: Re: Made a Bitcoin icon, PDF included Post by: cypherdoc on April 24, 2011, 04:18:16 AM Beautiful. the details are a little on the light side/hard to read unlike the current design. fantastic effort though.

Yes, anyone can do what they want with it. You can take out the btc symbol vector and use it, I currently have it as a custom shape in photoshop.

I agree. I think you're very good, but do it again better emphasizing the word, "bitcoin," and you've nailed it.

Title: Re: Made a Bitcoin icon, PDF included Post by: cypherdoc on April 24, 2011, 01:55:34 PM sorry, didn't finish post. those original logo coins are QUITE good. i actually like the parts of the coin that make it stand out (darker) b/c of the higher contrast, like the edges. a suggestion: don't focus on trying to make your coins look like pure gold. it makes the detailed parts of the coin like the print too light and less contrasty. i don't know if that makes sense or is even correct. its just my personal opinion. the original coins look techy which is cool.
