iChat icon (for messenger? :P)

[Ravager]

Hey guys. I made an iChat icon like the mac (a bit different)

Here's the big size.

Sizes come in 128x128, 72x72, 48x48, and 32x32. Enjoy!

Right click and save as.

Its nice but it is totally necessary to have a 16x16 size and 64x64.

[Ravager]

sure ill add em in

[redrope]

Also, when I downloaded the icon, there is LOTS of white around the icon and I use 128x128 icons.. need to fix that..

[Ravager]

hm ya i just noticed... hmmm

The preview pick looks great. Where did you get the original icon, just curious?

[Ravager]

the preview I made from scratch...

[Ravager]

dammit I dunno y. But with Gif Movie Gear when I throw in the icons as PSDs and export, there's a white border. When I throw in gifs, it becomes jagged. What's the best transparent format for pics that'll work great for icons?

[Gator]

Thats wierd that you are having problems with exporting the .psd out of GIF. I've never had that happen. .psds are usally the easiest way.

well, .psd if you are using GMG. thats what i use no probs. just make sure you are not losing the alpha transparency when you save your psd sizes from photoshop. like do not flatten the image or save as gif.

hrm, just a thought but perhaps did you just "cut" the icon out of the pic above. if you have "anti-aliased" checked and just magic wanded it perhaps you picked up the white from the background.

Guys, in your opinion, which one is better?
