MuC icons

[eridanusus.livejournal.com]

We was talking on szczur_system's journal about the MuC and they said it would be cool to get a whole heap of people to do it and make icons from it. Kinda like we did, in fact. Just because it's incomprehensible and looks cool. :)

Woo. ;-)

[eridanusus.livejournal.com]

Woo! :)

I dunno how to make an icon...

[enigma-system.livejournal.com]

Just go to paint and make it 100x100...

Add in your code as text...

Save it as a Jpg file!

:) Tadaa!

Upload!

http://www.irfanview.com is one of the best little programmes for viewing, editing and creating graphics.

That looks nice! We love green on black.

LOOK AT OUR ICON!

Ours says:
MuC N f;f/m/a/n/*/b/o
S.H+/Hf+/Sg+/~ A(b--
r---!/++) Os/w/r/i/n
We^/w+/t/h/d^/f^ Cc+
I~!* OF(r+ o+++) Ppsi
!+/obe!+/ast!/pre!+/
mag!+ Fxg+^/pw+^/eh+
^/eb+^/a+^/# T-* Xp^
(g/s/b/a/p/^!&%%|) Js
Do R C+++ So

(This is karma_silenced btw)

Yours flashes! We added you. :) (karma one not enigma one)

Wait till consortium find out about this. They, not we, originated the Code. They're back on at http://consortium.dreamshore.net

Oh, now I have to go do one.

[szczur-system.livejournal.com]

Well, it does look rather cool. XD

Question on the 'origins' section: what about soulbonds? Do they count as walk-ins, or what? I'll put it as walk-ins for now... or just write 'soulbonds'.

[ksol1460.livejournal.com]

I should think they'd count as walk-ins. Ours are more like occasional visitors, but they have, albeit rarely, fronted. Andy

You know, we must really get back with consortium about the Code... we've done a lot of tweaking since they left, and they're actually carrying the older version on their site. We received mail the other day suggesting three more species to be added. (tyeps of Raptors) Jay

[kasiya-system.livejournal.com]

tried putting ours into an icon and 100x100 just isn't big enough *pout*

[ksol1460.livejournal.com]

Squinch the font way down. Think "the Declaration of Independence on a dime".

Another Method For Making Icons

[ksol1460.livejournal.com]

If you have Firefox, you can get an extension that makes LJ icons.

Here's ours!

What would be interesting would be a little program you could run someone's MuC through to see what everything meant, so you wouldn't have to look it up. I'm pretty sure I saw that somewhere for another code, maybe several.

See, the problem with that is, you'd have to make sure that everyone was doing the code exactly correctly, as computers can't step back and interpret something as a human mind can, they only see something and give the exact definition... We could look at it and say, "Oh, I don't really think they meant to put that extra '/' in there..."

[ninalyn.livejournal.com]

Ta da! Great idea. Should've been making samples of flyers for a potential job, but this was just too enticing to pass up. ;)

[eridanusus.livejournal.com]

We came online and there was 32 emails from livejournal!! haha

[szczur-system.livejournal.com]

XD

Better late than never...

[laurenthemself]

After a question about soulbonds, a LARGE amount of frustration at the code not fitting into 100x100, and lots of working with font colours, we present:



Us in an icon. Our names, our Geek Code, our Multiple Code.

MuC N- [f;f/m/a] S.H+/S.Hf/S.H'leprechaun' A(b r---!/+) Ow Wm^ Cc++ I-- OF(r+/o+) Past/spi/pre/mag Fp'eclectic'^+/F~+ T++ Xp1(b/g/p/s) Jr/wr Do R+ C++ So++

Because it's almost illegible in the icon!

I also decided to add the '&' to the name list because of occasional walk-ins who pop in for a few minutes but aren't around as much as the others by a long shot. Good idea?

Liam is such a beautiful name :)

That's beautiful! Now we have to do it XD

So trendy! ;)

[pleiades-rising.livejournal.com]

Woohoo! I am hopping on the bandwagon.

Mine is easy-to-read XD
