These look very nice. I still see a little bit of jaggies though...What app are you using to create these?

Those were made in PhotoshopCS2 using vector masks, I tried to use Illustrator but apparently updating to 10.4.8 breaks Illustrator

(thanks apple.) I'm installing the demo on a parallels XP install this afternoon...

excellent stuff

if you create them at higher res, then downscale them, they should look the biz

Cherry... I got your msg, will mull over it at work 2moz and respond

Okie Dokie, so I got the Illustrator issue sorted out and did a bit of research on creating icons(never created them before this project) They're a little more polished now and should be about what you're looking for... If we need more colours/sizes let me know and I'll pump-em out... Now that I have the formula down it's a piece of cake

Also, as a note, I removed the "SN" from the 16x16 versions as it was not legible and just junked up the clean look... There's also a 24x24 icon in the .ico files not shown below...

48x48

32x32

16x16

SpaceNav3 Blue Icon

SpaceNav3 Red Icon

Hope you like 'em!

EDIT:
ICO files also contain 128x128, 96x96 and 72x72 versions...

128x128

MUCH BETTER! Now they look pro. Great job.

sweet job on the icons

why not package red and blue together?

**intervex** · 02-05-2007, 12:46 PM

As I am not familiar with programming in C++ I'm not sure how icons are referenced, Attached is an .icl of the two .ico files if it would be easier... Let me know if we need anything else or some other format

SpaceNav3.icl

Man I download the project files, but I only have Studio 6.

Just ordered the SN PE - it is exactly what I want.

I'd like to be able to control RR using SN in the manner of an iDrive controller, and it looks like we're getting there.

I have rather rusty C++ skills (I still prefer good ol' C) along with PERL and VB. Keen to help with this, as it looks superb. A standalone really appeals, rather than relying on GIRDER or PIE.

How do we take this forward? How can i help?

The main focus for the app is to control RR right now. It'll hopefully be pretty flexible though.

You're welcome to take a look at the code in the CVS of the project (see my signature). Though, the code is still quite rough, I'm hoping to have it more polished and understandable after this weekend.
