Q & A

"Will you stop doing icons in the current style after Windows 8 is out?"
No, i won't. Not immediately. W8 is a huge topic for me and i already showed some concepts and ideas i have.
But many people will still use Windows 7 after 8 is launched. Knowing that i will continue doing game-icons as they are at the moment until i have the feeling Windows 8 has enough attention to switch to something new.

"Are you sad when some icons don't have much views/downloads?"
Hell No! :D
If just 1 person has downloaded and uses something i created it's more than i expected.
People telling me they like my icons is just awesome! And thanks for that :)

"Do you plan on stopping doing icons in the future?"
No plans for that!

"Why don't you implement some requests?"
Well... how to answer this...
Depends on various reasons. Some games don't have good media (Wallpapers, Renders, Logos etc.) to work with for example.
It's not like: "I wont do an icon for game "xyz" because i don't like it!" Sometimes it takes a while.
I'm trying to handle as many request as i can :)

"Will you (GameIcons Group) only release on deviantArt"
No. We have some plans for the future. More informations coming soon.............. ;)

"What tools are you using for your icons?"
For creating: Adobe Photoshop CS3 (Not a fan of CS4/CS5)
For converting: Axialis IconWorkshop 6.11

"What do you do beside game icons?"
I also make "anime icons" with a good friend of mine :)
I introduced him to the "creating icons"-world and now we're doing them as team.
So, for all anime-fans: Check out his deviantArt profile for good anime-icons: [link] :icondevill-dante:
He also takes requests :)
Besides icons i do some other stuff like wallpapers or web designs.

"Some final thoughts?"
Thanks for all the views and downloads of my works!
You guys are the reason i like this hobby and will keep on doing more.

No that i live in my own place with a cool housemate i have more time to work on my icons.
Now i can do icons all the time, no interruption due to work. This gives me the time to look for proper media i can work with. But youre always free to help me finding good stuff for a cool icon.

Request info
  • Icons will always come as ".ico" and ".png"

  • Just icons for "Games" or "Game Tools" (No movie/shows/etc. folder icons)

  • Don't re-upload them without my permission

Mike your the Icon master and I come to you with a problem.

I have 452 games installed all using super sexy HQ icons - apart from a few games that have horrible icons and it makes my games folder feel sad!

I just can't find any good images to make these icons look better so just wanted to ask if you either had any icons for these games or could work your magic and knock up something :)

Some of them are a few years old which is why I'm struggling to find them. Here's the list anyway just to see if you have any of them - I'll start with the newest:

A Walking Dead icon (without a frikin' box or circle drawn around it - why does everybody seem to do this - it's nasty ;)
Death Road
Pixel Junk Eden
Scoregasm

Now some old ones - I like them so there staying - ugly or not :)

Mini Car Racing
Mr Driller
Pure Pinball 2.0 Redux
Switchball
Wipeout
Wipeout XL or 2097
Wipeout Fusion
Wipeout Pulse

Any help much appreciated my friend :)

Right, I'm off now to make another 100 or so Black Ops 2 icons to see if we can just get the one game icon to dominate the front page!

Cheers

Awesome work! Could you please make an icon for Magic The Gathering Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012... Not only is it an awesome game, but it also has the longest title in video game history.

These are awesome! would you ever consider putting them into a huge pack? makes it way easier to get instead of downloading each and every single one of them.
