Upgraded Item Glows

[Hell_Tempest]

The recolors are more win than anything else.

What I'm trying to say in the previous post is...


Unupgraded.


Upgraded. (Borders should be gray <_<)

Recolors scream "Dusk was too lame to get the help of an artist that can make new icons."

I think that the basic items should be recolored to something along the lines of "gray", to make it looks bland.

God no, that would be wretched, especially after having seen your example. The world is full of colors, why should things be gray scaled simply to indicate some silly qualification therein?

The most intuitive icon set we can pick is one with the cool glow, logically. I mean, if we change the icons themselves, people will need to learn what those 10 new icons mean. On the flip side, if we keep the icons the same and just introduce a cool glow to each, people have to learn only what one glow means, not what ten icons mean. (See the difference there?)

I think the golden glows look kind of cool, to be honest, but I'd like to see them on the standard BTN border.

There, updated the first page with golden glows.

How about making golden glows from the item, instead of golden glow on the border?

Oh shit, Glow B is super sexy with the standard borders.

IMO, the borders should all start out sand-colored (kind of golden, but duller, since it's the color of the desert), then change as the item gets upgraded. Or have the non-upgradeable items be golden, and have the upgradeable ones change.]

for the record, I like the combination icons that Storm posted. They are sexy beasts.

Dusk wants the glow on the border.
