Replacement set of Reputation Icons for the TgR Forum
A few weeks ago, in the chatroom, there was a brief discussion about the Reputation icons in the TgR Forum.
It’s taken me a bit to come up with an idea for a new set of icons, and here’s the samples.I’d love to hear any suggestions or complaints about this proposed icon set.
Sample 01 – Reputation0 – Broken glass
Sample 02 – Reputation1 – Rock 1 Breccia
Sample 03 – Reputation1 – Rock 2 grey
Sample 04 – Reputation2 – Raw Opal 1
Sample 05 – Reputation2 – Raw Opal 2
Sample 06 – Reputation3 – citrine
Sample 07 – Reputation4 – amber
Sample 08 – Reputation5 – Ruby 1
Sample 09 – Reputation5 – Ruby 2
Sample 10 – Reputation6 – Emerald 1
Sample 11 – Reputation6 – Emerald 2
Sample 12 – Reputation7 – Diamond 1
Sample 13 – Reputation7 – Diamond 2
Sample 14 – Reputation7 – Diamond 3edit: fix the labels on the pics

Thanks Jenni for such a good quality contribution. I’ll be interested to hear feedback (and see any other image sets).
Now there is a thread… perhaps it would be good if I recorded for any other budding icon designers the requirements…. so here goes
There are currently 8 reputation images.
It has been observed that the high heels are a bit gender specific for a site that aims to cater for the entire gender diverse spectrum.
Each image must be 130 x 95 (don’t ask where I came up with that size from), and in jpg format.The images must not be identifiably copy-write.
Now the tricky bit…..
Reputation image 1 and 2 must be clearly undesirable – as they are awarded to members whose reputation is unacceptable. (Think the old boot and plastic thong in the original set)
Reputation images 3 – 8 should (I think) be a clearly recognisable sequence of getting better (i.e. Image 6 identifiably better/more vakluable/superior to image 5). With image 8 obviously representing the best possible reputation.

I am intent on, at this moment until otherwise decided to go with the jewelled choices.
Although…….. I must admit that I’d prefer something more feminine, and that makes choice harder, what suits one, may not suit another

*grumble* Managed to screw up with one of the icon pics.
Put Sample 10 – Reputation6 – Emerald 1, twiceThis is what Sample 11 – Reputation6 – Emerald 2 is supposed to be

Excellent idea, girls.
Another thought would be to have something on the wedding anniversary scale..
eg 1= paper
10= Tin
25= SilverEtc

If you want to contribute a possible icon set…. then please create the images… and then use the “upload picture” feature in this forum to upload each of the 8 images. If we select the icon set then I’ll get back to you so you can email me the original images.
Can I please stress the need for
“Reputation image 1 and 2 must be clearly undesirable”I’m keen to swap out the shoes … but can’t do it unless the two bottom icons are so bad people say “why is my reputation so bad?”
-
I have to admit I really like the shoes, but I’m not keen on the whole reputation idea at all. Perhaps someone could explain why it is necessary, because at the moment it feels more like class distinction to me.

In the end does it really matter what icons are used as long as you are not a boot it is ok lol
-
Sorry fellow TGers, I quite like the shoes. I must however admit to having a “thing” about high heels. I know that when I dress the very last thing I would want to wear is an old pair of boots or rubber thongs.
Gems just don’t do it for me. Needs to have a bit of fun about it.
Now knickers, that could be interesting!!!!
Cheers,
Fay

I guess that was an essential requirement that I forgot from the ‘spec’.
I agree – shouldn’t be too serious! -
Fay, thanks for the idea of knickers as a scale.
I’m trying to think of a possible scale for that idea, and this is what I could come up with, so far.I can’t, yet, think of what would suit -1 on the scale
I’ve used the website of my favourite lingerie store as the imagesource for this post

I’m trying to think of a possible scale for that idea, and this is what I could come up with, so far.Without wishing to dampen the creative juices… I do have to observe that the underwear collection is pretty gender specific – just like the shoe collection we have at present!
-
If being gender specific is a problem then why not use automobiles, everyone likes cars. They could be sporty cars, luxury cars or even off road vehicles. Or if you wanted a mixed bag you could start with a KIA Carnival and go all the way up to an F50 Ferrari.
Hugs Pamela!

Animals? Going from yukky to beautiful.. e.g.
Rat
Pig
Rhino
Wombat
Deer
Hummingbird
Reed Frog
Clownfish..or perhaps make them all types of fish.
Note that Reed Frogs frequently change sex, and the Clownfish is hermaphroditic.

Maybe a cockroach could have a few football fans happy,
Just a thought.
