techywarrior 688 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 The new sets are nice, but how come the images are so huge? If I resave them in Photoshop for web at 80 quality they are 400k, at 100 they are 800k yet your versions are about 3mb. Is there a reason for the images to be that high quality? If not it would save storage space on the server and all the clients (due to caching) not to mention the faster download speeds from the server.

I didn't want to do that quite yet since it isn't widely supported yet. And I choose png over jpg because I still wanted something lossless. I can resave them in a different format if you want though Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, JPEG is so much better in this instance (for my uses) I'll probably just wait for you to update Gen 2 with the missing consoles but I guess I'll have to resave all the images to JPEG to make them less crazy file size wise.

I'll re-add the png downloads at a later time. Each icon is between 600-800k now instead of ~3MB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye2468 31 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 What are you using to make the tiles? Do you have a photoshop action or something? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaefurr 1337 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) What are you using to make the tiles? Do you have a photoshop action or something? Thanks No im just using regular console images from the web, I crop them out as I like and then change the lightness to +100, then add the colored background. For example this is what I used for the DSi. Unfortunately because of all the manual cropping needed on each image there's no way to make use of an action, or at least not one to save any time anyway. I should also add the for a lot of consoles I have to make the image from scratch using shapes since there arn't any good top view pics available.

shaefurr 1337 Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 foolishly I darkened part of the center of each backdrop in the genre icons without using a layer, you can see from the first pic below in which I pulled the backdrop from the genre set, ill probably just redo them completely to match the rest of the genre icons, 2nd pic below. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
