Yeah, that's a good idea. We should probably have them by now.

Most important is probably the Maya and Felix smilies if anyone wants to make them. After that comes the Blur versions of the returning characters. :yes

Use the smiley template here:

http://www.merqurycity.com/gondee/smiley_master.psd

You can change the skin/eye color and play with the shape a tad (not much, keep the format/size largely similar unless they wear goggles, glasses, etc.)

Save them as GIF (they can animate if you'd like.) Here's the old OT smileys and the "rules" I made for that topic - that should give you a good idea of what to shoot for.

Okay, here's the lowdown on smileys if you wanna create them so they can be used on the board. I've produced a few files that you guys can use to help you create smilies.

Here are the simple rules -

1) Smileys can be no larger than 50x50. The PSD file I've created has a generic canvas size of 30x30, but you can enlarge it if you need to.

2. Smileys must continue the face style that DeeCee produced and all the smileys have. If they dont' have the basic face style, it won't make it on the board. That can be modified, of course - for example if the character has glasses or an eyepatch or whatever, you can put that in there no problem. And some variation is okay, so long as it's apparent it's from the same basic face that all the SSX smilies are produced from. You can also change skin color, eye color, face shape, as needed so long as it retains the look of the general "theme" of the smilies.

3. I reserve the right to make choices on what smilies go on the board and also to modify them graphically to fit the style as well. We can only have one smiley of each character from each game on the board, so no half a dozen Macs from SSX On Tour, just one. If one is made, turn your attention to one of the other ones that haven't been made. And no half a dozen variations of the same character, just produce a basic one for one game.

Here are the files you guys should use to produce them:

Basic face template:

and the PSD file:

http://www.merqurycity.com/gondee/smiley_master.psd

I've included 3 different backgrounds to help you see how your smiley will look on different styles of the board. Black is the basic background for the default skin.

Okay guys, get to work!

Okay cool - keep in mind that I'm totally nitpicking here. :yes

Maya

Could you add some colored striations to her hair? Like Elise here:

Quote:

Felix

Looks awesome.

Quote:

Elise

Could you darken her lips a tad (maybe add some hair striations) (Nitpicky! lol)

Quote:

Zoe

Looks great man, but maybe if she looked mad, I'm so used to her looking mad in Blur. :heh

Quote:

Skye

Give her skin a little more tone, maybe show her ponytail up top a bit more (nitpicky! lol)

Quote:

JP

Awesome!

But needs a bit more skin tone.

Quote:

Mac

Could you darken the outline around his goggles?

Quote:

Kaori

Could you make her hair straight up brown? I know it's not really brown in the character art but it's just not Kaori without brown hair - oh, and make her eyes like the rest of the Kaoris: [kaori]

Quote:

Moby

Haha, pretty close. He needs a nose and bigger lips though.

Quote:

Psymon

Maybe a longer face and a little more hair up top so we could see that it's combed back.

Quote:

Allegra

Maybe a bit more color to her hat, a little shadow. That's all though, looks awesome.

Quote:

Griff

Make his eyes huge and blue, and maybe a little shaggier hair.

I'm nitpick city here. :heh

Really I'm just amazed you got them done so fast, and not a white line in the whole bunch! :cheers
