So here it is, dam dam daaaam:

Made it in few days, kinda functioning, 3 verbs + inventory. When mouse is over a selection it becomes light blue from dark, like shown in picture.
Well share your thoughts and write what part needs upgrading/redoing.
I always find that the best way of constructive critique is paintovers; could you post the original verbcoin graphic?
The image you posted wasn't upscaled correctly btw; some of the pixels are twice, others thrice as big. You don't need to upload an upscaled version anyway, just multiply the original width by 2 or 3 and put in in the img tag: [img width="420"]
Here is original version. Though no verbs here ;D

I like it. If I were to suggest any changes it would probably be to perhaps make your eye icon a little more symmetrical, just a plain almond instead of slanted. Maybe some animation of the little red light on the bottom of each monitor icon when you hover on them. But yeah, looks good as is regardless I think.
I hope I'm not overdoing it, but here's a suggestion regarding the overall-design

I thought it was odd that the circuit-board was directly connected to the screens. I think it would make more sense to have the screen connected to the same circuit-board by cables. Then it also nice to have the screens at a bit of an angle maybe.
I assume the box in the center is the inventory? I worked on that assumption so I thought that should have been bigger too.
The shading isn't that great here but it just a quick example of what could be done.
There should be wires hanging from monitors, but forgot to add it. Inventory should be this size, because when you mouse-over it, it expands.
Though I like your idea on monitors, I might use it when I redraw this ;)
EDIT:
Here is version with wires and darkened a bit. In center there will be inventory button.

Just a cheapo edit with a much smaller colour count, and somewhat clearer lines. I like the blue wire-cross-element in your design a lot, but since it's hidden by the
interface inventory anyway...

Pixel art's always hard. ;)
