16x16 is a tough canvas to work with

It's not about the size, but about the technique

hmmm....  kind of small. 

What about the globe? Can something be done with that idea?
Title: Re: change the favicon
Post by: Titiln on April 16, 2014, 11:39:13 pm
a 16x16 image will always be small. the globe by itself is too generic for a favicon. "mfg" is pretty specific

If you can tell it's MFG. Which I only know because you said so and I had to get my nose nearly on the screen.  I'm not arguing, but I like to see choices, ya know like shoes?

i'm on 1920 with 100% zoom and can tell it says mfg

any staff members want to chime in on the subject

theres some server side work going on right now so we might take a bit to revisit this. I dont really like the three letters, but i agree that its better than what it was.  Theres not really any other symbol that symbolizes mugen instantly that much.

Post by: Saikoro on May 03, 2014, 12:56:40 am
Hmmm... how about making the icon the "M" from the Mugen 1.0 releases section?? Just a thought.

even i can tell it says MFG and if i can see it it means it's probably visible from space as well. i think it's time for you to either get glasses or change your monitor

(http://pausingframes.smeenet.org/mugen/logo2.png) tried to reflect the actual logo. makes it easier to recognize

on another note we should probably change the logo on the fp as well

The old/current favicon isn't even showing up anymore, at least for me. Perfect time to change it, no?

didn't see that while skimming the thread tbh. I don't particularly prefer one over the other, anybody wanna give their opinion on this?
Title: Re: change the favicon
Post by: Bizarro Santamorphman on July 09, 2014, 06:54:49 am
I prefer c001357's because it reflects the colors of the logo.

I see that (http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/tt305/cci_walt/MFG16x16_White_zpsa62687d2.gif) was successfully implemented. I hope it looks good enough for everybody now :)

Every once and a while I still see the old favicon. Do you think that has to be because of my cookies?
Title: Re: change the favicon
Post by: Alex Sinigaglia on July 24, 2014, 01:33:05 pm
Maybe it's because you are looking at the hosted or archived sites. And actually I prefer it to remain this way.
Title: Re: change the favicon
Post by: DKDC on July 24, 2014, 01:35:51 pm
I think at home I see the new icon but at work I still see the old one. That would just be some cache issue.

^-- If you still see KFM here, just copy the link, paste it into your address bar, then hit Ctrl+F5 and it'll change to the new one. You can then refresh any tab that is open and the icon will change. I just did that here and now I have the new one only.

Obviously you have o press shift/ctrl + f5. You n00b.

Yes, but on the icon, not on the pages.

Post by: Just No Point on August 07, 2014, 03:50:58 pm
network sites still have the old favicon

Personal preference, also to remember the old one.

But Valodim decides.
