Icon class WIP
« on: February 11, 2017, 11:26:15 AM »
I wanted to make it easy to add images based on either game info or tags, so I worked on an "Icon" class.

I currenly have extended classes for ESRBIcon, RegionIcon, GenreIcon and SystemIcon, this is what it looks like so far:


It's based on either searching game info, tags or list name - a mix right now.. I'll have to decide what's best for each. Code is as simple as this:
Code: [Select]
local esrb = ESRBIcon(20, 60, 90, 127)
local system = SystemIcon(121, 60, 160, 128)
local region = RegionIcon(291, 60, 160, 128)
local genre = GenreIcon(461, 60, 160, 128)

Feel free to provide feedback or suggestions for other "icon" ideas :P

Here's the images I'm working on:

Its looking awesome. Uniform sized/ themed icons will look really well in any setup

I was wondering - maybe it would be better to put that description at the bottom. Than you can make it more unified with rating icon.

like this:

I could probably generate sets both ways, but anyone can create the 'spritesheet' for the images to look however they want <hint,hint> :) I'll be providing the PSDs for these. Working out a few more kinks on this, it is functional now - but Region and ESRB requires the user to tag.. Region I could probably try to pull from the title, but ESRB isn't scraped AFAIK, so that would likely still have to be tagged.

nah.... like you've said, anyone can generate a set customised to his liking. If you like them sideways - just make 1 set that you like.
