Wouldnt it be more usefull as icon set?

Teddy (2011-01-09 03:07:09):

Thats a great idea and I'm looking forward to see some kind of multi-culti-set made by as many users as possible!
This experiment lets us act like a nice community :-)
I think it should be thought to be a cursor for being a little bit more difficult shouldn't it :-D
One question left: you wrote the theme has to be snowflake. So could it also be snowflake-themed or must it be one single (maybe 'individualized') snowflake?

JDDellGuy (2011-01-09 06:10:56):

We will do cursors as this experiment and then most likely do an icon experiment as well- probably snowman themed.

The only rule about the snowflake theme is that the cursor has to have something to do with a snowflake- preferably with it as a primary feature of the cursor. So you could have a snowflake for a cursor, put an animated snowflake into the cursor somewhere, draw a snowflake onto a regular shaped cursor, etc., just for some ideas. It doesn't even necessarily have to be an entire snowflake- for example, you might design a cursor in which one point of a snowflake is the cursor. Just make sure we know it has something to do with snowflakes.

I am also very excited to see what people come up with. :-)

Teddy (2011-01-09 10:21:52):

Thanks for your answer :-)

Vlasta (2011-01-09 17:04:42):

I suppose, we can make an 'Anonymous' set ;-)
But only because there will be multiple authors.

JDDellGuy (2011-01-09 23:19:08):

More time than a week may be given if anybody needs it. Let me know if you want more time. Otherwise we will keep the one week deadline for entries.

Teddy (2011-01-09 23:55:57):

Would be happy with 2 weeks 'cause I'm very busy atm

JDDellGuy (2011-01-09 23:59:38):

Two weeks it is. Works better for me too. :-)

Teddy (2011-01-10 07:44:18):

Thank you :-)

Enjoy.

JDDellGuy (2011-01-11 23:52:49):

Basically just make a link and then put a cursor image markup instead of the word you want to act as a link.

Nice job By the way. :-)

I got an animated cursor once, but I can't remember how. Working on it.

sixλxis (2011-01-11 23:53:26):

Fix'd!

JDDellGuy (2011-01-11 23:57:51):

Got to get mine finished up too. I'm lagging a little. Got hooked on my glassy icons.

Teddy (2011-01-13 20:52:16):

nice one ... my physic and my chemistry tests are waiting in the next week after that I'll create my cursor

JDDellGuy (2011-01-18 10:27:38):

Got mine done now. cursor-view/22363.png image

Vlasta (2011-01-19 23:27:49):

mine is kind of lame :-D

Teddy (2011-01-20 07:53:29):

Still didn't finish mine :S
But I will in the next 2 days

JDDellGuy (2011-01-20 08:35:41):

School is most important. ;-)

If you need an extra day or two, let me know. We don't have a ton of cursors, so a late addition is better than none. I don't want to bend the rules too far, but the final date is not extremely important- just so long as you are still interested.

Would another day or two help?

Teddy (2011-01-20 17:17:33):

maybe yes :-) thank you
but I think I could finish my flake in the next 2 days

sixλxis (2011-01-21 05:46:15):

Animated?

-Go to the page that your cursor is on by itself.
-Right click on the icon and then "view image."
-Copy the URL minus the "http://rw-designer.com/" part.
-then write this:

[[image: <the URL piece>]]

And of course, don't include the "<" and ">"

JDDellGuy (2011-01-21 07:19:35):

[http://www.rw-designer.com/cursor-detail/22363 [[image:cursor-view/22363.png]]]

And because of this not working how I want it to ^^^^
I think that it is not possible to link the animated image to the page with the cursor on it. So you get to pick between either animated or a link for each individual image.

Vlasta (2011-01-21 11:28:30):

Animation, link & tooltip for your cursor:

Teddy (2011-01-21 15:53:26):

wow nice animations here :-)

JDDellGuy (2011-01-21 22:29:24):

Thanks Vlasta!

sixλxis (2011-01-21 22:37:39):

What about for icons? How do i make their image as a link? I cant seem to figure it out.

JDDellGuy (2011-01-21 22:43:29):

If all you want is a link, you can do it this way. (The underscore represents a space.)

["Place link here"_[[icon:"icon number"]]]

You know how to make a word into a link right?
Like THIS
just put the icon markup ( [[icon:"icon number"]] ) in the space that you would normally put the word into.

lol, this should probably all be over in the forum post formatting forum...

sixλxis (2011-01-22 01:23:23):

icon-detail/4744
Is what it comes out to.

JDDellGuy (2011-01-22 06:30:36):

you have to put the whole URL in that one. Not just the part after http://rw-designer.com/

It should look like this.

[http://www.rw-designer.com/icon-detail/4744 [[icon:4744]]]

to get this

JDDellGuy (2011-01-22 07:57:08):

And now that I am looking at it up close- WOW. Nice work.

Teddy (2011-01-23 09:43:52):

Shit I've broken my left hand yesterday night :S
Wasn't at the hospital yet . . .
I'm left-handed ^^

JDDellGuy (2011-01-23 21:55:44):

Oh man... Sorry to hear that- sounds painful.
Hey, if you still wanted to make a cursor for the set sometime, you can create it, and then we can add it to the set when you are done.

I don't really care much about the deadline rule, it was more so that we wouldn't have a ton of entries coming in way down the road and so that we could get the set populated quickly.

And to Vlasta, we can probably create the set now with the cursors that we do have, and if Naughtybear6 has one later, it can be submitted late if that's not too much trouble.

We should probably hold the icon version of the experiment for a while- I'm back in college tomorrow and probably won't be able to participate as enthusiastically as I have been. It's been a fun thing to do while I was on break.

And Naughtybear6...get well soon...have a penguin for company.

Vlasta (2011-01-24 17:44:30):

Sorry to hear that, broken hand sucks. I hope you'll get better soon. If you'd want to add your cursor later, just PM me.

The Snowflake set is now online.

JDDellGuy (2011-01-24 18:32:20):

It's so cool! Love it.

Teddy (2011-01-25 07:58:14):

Thank you guys <3
Ill add it later
