Style of armor icons

Post by Crush »

Currently we have 2 different styles of equipment icons for chest armor.

The 3/4 perspective style:

and the frontal perspective style:

We should try to agree on one consistent style. Which one should we use in the future?

I'm for frontal perspective. I dont feel that the 3/4 style fits TMW, but that's me.

3/4. But I don't feel necessary to choose one, I like the variety in the inventory box.

3/4 for item icons from here on if someone asks me.

There aren't that many to redraw yet.

Would someone mind adding that to our guidelines on the wiki?

I like variation. I don't think we should pick one.

If you want to defend your view, open up a new thread for discussion about this.

On other hand standardization is nice and on the other hand variation is really nice. We need to find a compromize between those two.

I would rather see variety rather than everything basically the same with just different colors...so both, don't just choose one.
