Game Icon Submissions

I don't think so, above your first post is my Tony Hawk's icons submission, I posted them on 20th Feb but they only changed them when I posted 2 images of your request, some other times, I have to wait for about a week or more.

I think the only one that's been actually active approving icon submissions in the past month(s?) is just x3sphere and I'm sure he's busy, so be patient 😁


However, I have some tips which might help.

• Personally, I find it easier to make icons from separate artwork and logos than to cut out the boxart itself.

I Googled the official artwork and a logo with transparent background.

and turn them into

/

If you want to upscale or downscale the image, keep the original aspect ratio.

If there are texts , awards or other logo like that, I'm sure it's better to remove them.

Might be not matter much but probably it's better to upload the images in .png format.


• Also, don't use weird filters...

Ok, I see. I didn't know x3sphere is alone with these tasks. We'll be patient, of course.

Thank you as always, my friend! ;-)

Think I got a more fitting W.M.D: Mobilize banner... I took it from the trailer, upscaled it, and removed the PEGI logo
I literally just submitted the default W.M.D one before thinking, I suppose they wanted to be clear that it's a slightly different game

I'd like to see some of the Retro Achievements pokemon lists get updated! Most of the professor oak subset challenges look like rom hack fanart for the tile images:


At least something that relates to the tile of the main game itself for example something like:

I created these updated game tiles for the Pokemon Professor Oak subsets!

Will create more as the rest of the sets are made for the games.

I was going to try to find some alternative images before replying but basically some of them look overly stretched.

As an example -

Considering this is the original for Flowerz http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/cM/PR/1mdsb2JhbC9ECgR8GgMfVipTL2ljb24vMC84MDAwAAAAAAAAAPn+w28=.jpg

Minesweeper: http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/7J/tS/1mdsb2JhbC9ECgR8GgMeXS5XL2ljb24vMC84MDAwAAAAAAAAAPl9m-M=.jpg

The logo/art looks stretched out and not proportionate to the original. The Xbox Live banner at the top isn’t an issue although would be better if it did not have that.

Madagascar one is fine, I uploaded it now.

Ultimately if we have no other options I am fine with uploading those as it is better than the blank icon. I realize it might be hard to find bigger versions of the WP icons.

I know im the one who stretched them on photoshop because i literally couldn't find any good pictures since those are just some obscure random WP games but i can try to make them a bit better soon. by stretching them less ;)

The Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix one looks a bit stretched to me? Also the current icon was uploaded by another forum member, I don't see the need to replace this one personally. The rest look good however, have uploaded them! Thanks.
