Ok, So I needed a hand on one of the icons.  What exactly is the "Sector Window" for? Is it just for switching between "Races" as what you're controlling, or as a separate window?

In the meantime, here's a few more icons:

Nice work! The sector window allows you to view and change your race's sectors, which are sort of the civilian administrator equivalent to naval admin commands. You can assign multiple star systems to a single sector, and the administrator assigned as the sector governor will apply their bonuses to every colony in those systems.

What a concept to encapsulate with lines in a 256x256 canvas! :P

 I'll figure something out though!

Besides that one, I think this is the full complement before revisions:

If you want, we could always use some more custom badges for the Ribbon Maker.

You mean the "Devices" or something else? I'm happy to give it a crack once I'm done here.

Love the research alt.

You might change the Auto Step to Auto Turn. I believe that is the "official" name for that function. And probably change Master to SM.

That's really cool! If I'm being picky, I don't really understand the turrets logo. All I see is three toasts coming out of a toaster next to two screwdrivers  ;)

Alrighty, I've included re-designs. I just need to figure out sector.... I might just cheap out and go with a government building as it is now...



EDIT:

That's exactly what my wife said too: I hope the alt is better!

I would totally not be opposed to you going to steve and working with him to get something like this implemented for icons later down the road as the current ones are not exactly the best and it also shows how to properly assist steve and create new content for aurora.

He's mentioned possibly enabling custom themes, but I'm more than happy to let him use this as the default if he likes it.

When I finally get ahead of the bugs, I will look at how to import different icon schemes.

These are great.   I have to say I prefer the less noisy alt-schemes, but these would be very nice in any capacity.   Possible suggestion: (lightly) Color scheme them by their general areas, like green for civilian, Blue for military, yellow for diplomacy, etc.   this would probably help new players a ton in understanding/remembering the functions of the buttons.   Perhaps just a subtle color outline around the perimeter of the box?

If I were home I’d give it a shot myself, But I’m away from my computer for a few days.

Thanks for the praise! I'm open for changing them in whatever way makes the most sense, but for now I'm trying just to make a unified style. If it's deemed necessary, colors will come after. But I'll definitely keep it in mind!
