Avy's Icon Workshop

Avery · 2013-12-30T07:45:52+0900

-No repost or post of edits without my permission!- I make icons since XP was around, so my icons cover various styles from XP over VX Ace to MV and MZ. Take your time and have a look around, you will very likely find something for your game as well! Be sure to read the rules - and leave a like and feedback of you found anything useful! Spoiler The first thing to mention is that I set great store on how you ask me to help you. I am a human being and not an icon machine. Please read both - dos and don'ts. There are two styles I mainly support: Ace (24*24): Not more than 2 at one time. MV Icons (own style, no RTP!) (32*32) Not more than 2 at one time! MV Icons II (manually(!) upscaled Ace Style) (32*32) 1 from scratch or up to 2 upscales from my 24*24 icons Big Icons (48*48): You can ask for 1 from scratch icon or 2 resizes of existing (in my sheet or the RTP) icons at one time. (If you want another size, ask me) Do: What do you need? - Good description and pictures! If there is no chance to find an image a good description is okay, but a image and just the title isn't! Be patient and friendly and I'll treat you the same way. Give that Avy some feedback after she did your request. Please check the sheet before requesting something. Don'ts: No "grocery lists". Write a proper request text! I won't do recolor requests! If I refuse your request, deal with it and wait more than just a few days before coming back again. If there are already a lot of open requests, wait until they are solved. If you have more general requests, here ist Granny's Icon List. Check it before you request thigs like "more keys" or "an iron sword". There are already enough of those general things. Spoiler Free for commercial & non-commercial use, as long as I get a free copy of the game. You may edit these for your own use, but don't post them anywhere without my permission. Only for use in RPG Maker games, MV/Z II Icons require you to own RMVX Ace. Editing does not include upscaling the Ace icons for the use in MV. You can use them there, but do not resize them with filters or anything like that. No blurry resize at all. Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Those can be placed behind a 24*24 icon to make it fill a 32*32 area. Spoiler They are featured in the Febuary '15 Restaff, where you also can find Big Icons by other artists and a matching VX Ace script by Playm! Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Charms and Accessoirs: Keys: Swords: Plants Rings Bows Poleweapons:

It's delayed; but untouched by Chaos Master Snix! Actually I am working on something for christmas and I lost track about how long I was sitting on it^^; I am really excited for showing what I have so far then (because finishing doesn't seem very likely, sadly), but for now: Roman stuff! It could be used for a lot of things, they could be part of a museum quest, normal items in a fantasy game, maybe even ancient remains or items of a different culture there. (And they could also be part of an Asterix Fangame I guess :D )

Thank you all so much <3 I hope you can forgive me that I put my energy atm in content instead of long answers >_<

History of the computers in general, including cryptography.

You know, people and things like:

Euclid's algorithm

Sieve of Eratosthenes

Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi book

John Napier's bars

Blaise Pascal's Pascaline machine

Jaquard 's Loom

Charles Babbage Differential machine (If he would completed it, there might be steampunk computers today). See spoiler for more.

Ada Augusta Lovelace (first machine-computer programmer)

Hollerith's tabulating machines (the founder of IBM actually)

Von Neumman scheme

Alan Turing

I hate history in general but when it comes to computers...

Spoiler
Charles Babbage machine:

and an ancient computer found in Greece as a bonus:

I have to say I'm split between the Egyptians, Greeks, and the Aztecs. Not sure if I spelled that right. :)

Modular Status up and down icons^^

To the Germany thing:

Spoiler
Many people forget that Germany is not the only country with dark spots in it's history. Just mentioning the Nanking massacre (don't google for it if you can't stand it, there are images you probably don't want to see) as and forcing many mainly korean and chinese woman into prostitution for military including raping them as some of the cruel things Japan did as well in that period.

My grandfather (the german one) was 14 when the war ended, my grandmother even younger. So how do I feel about that? I am not connected to any of the things that happened directly.

It is bad what happened, but I don't feel any shame for being German because of that and that would be stupid. I visited three concentration camps, I was at Verdun (first World War stuff, but still a horrible place), I were at several German and French forts and bunkers, so the only thing that I can say that has an impact on me is that I am able to learn a lot about that time, the why and what because I am able to see the places.

So, sure, "Germany" started to invade Poland and sure, "Germany" build concentration camps (not only for the Jews you know, also gay people, communists, disabled people, gypsies...).

So I am sad about what happened without feeling guilty at all. And I think people should also think about for example the Third Wave experiment; it is not like that Germany was a country full of evil people back then.

It's a very serious topic and I personally e.g. can't stand Nazi jokes - not because I am German, because I know so much about the cruel things and it is just not funny at all. I mean, it wouldn't be funny either to make 9/11 or Charlie Hebdo jokes, huh?

Some of my favorite historical topics are the Salem Witch Trials, Colonial America, and the Industrial Revolution. I'm also super geeked out by prehistory and the evolution of man.

And again, I really love these modular icons! You can accomplish a lot with these pieces.

I like the roman ones a lot history themed games can be fun but only if you can get the setting, and facts right. I liked Glory of heracles because of how it incorporated Greek mythology and history into the game. I think its interesting when you put on history channel and see stuff like how religions even inspired other religions. For example similarities between the norse mythological gods and christianity.

Those modular status icons are so incredibly useful.

Modular status icons...brilliant!

So simple, yet so useful, and they look good, too.

My favorite historical subject is the history of technology and how it's related to events. Like how the black plague played a part in the invention of computers. Actually, the interconnectedness of things is interesting with any historical subject. I'm not that interested in ice ages or the US's Revolutionary War but I find the idea that there might have been a mini ice age going on during that war very interesting.

Loooove the leather armor and the sword in the big icons. The roman icons seem thematically appropriate and add a nice diversity to the armor and weapon choices. Modular status icons?! Wow, I would have never even thought of that, what an unusual thing to make modular. Good idea too, those icons get seen a lot, having more options helps each game be it's own thing.

Uah, so late yet. Do you have all christmas presents? I have to hunt down the last one tomorrow D:
I know, I know, those are not MV sized, but I also know that some? use my icons in MV as well and I jus thought it was nice to have some icons matching the default chars and monsters of MV :3
I have to admit that most of the designs in MV are too... faboulous? in my opinion? I'd prefer a plain skeleton or a normal bat or a zombie without knife and fork... well.
We are close to the end, I hope you enjoyed the ride and stay for the last surprises^^

Love them. I use your icons for my MV projects. A little editing and they work just fine. ^.^

As for presents? Sigh, I wish. I have everything that I needed to buy, but I still need to finish up several crochet projects. I should be working on them instead of MV, oops. ;)

#1199 Dec 21, 2015, 12:58 AM Source

New icons look good Avery, wouldn't have guessed they were based on MV since I don't have it; looks like something you might have made otherwise anyway. I like the sorcerer hat and the god knife/sword the best.

Just picked up presents for my brother and sister earlier. Couldn't find the toy my sister wanted (should have ordered online) so I ended up getting her a couple lightsabers lol; tis the season...for Star Wars!

Also ah! we are nearing the end of the advent calender! :o

Avery's talent always amazes me. These icons are pretty good. Modular states in particular could be super useful!

And to be honest the only gift I'd really need is time, but then again who wouldn't want that? We all have so much to do...and so little time to do it! Still, story of my life... :p
