Title: Any tutorials about drawing icons and cursors?
Post by: on Thu 08/07/2004 14:11:17
I would like to know if there is somewhere a good tutorial about drawing GUI-buttons, icons and cursors?

I would like to make same kind of icons as in King's Quest 5, but it is not very easy to draw, for example, good-looking hand-icons or eye-icons.

You could take a screenshot of the King's Quest GUI, when it is activated, and edit it at the MS paintshop. There you can seperate the Gui icons, change them a little if you wish and they will be ready for use.

About cursor, you do not need a special talent to design just a simple pointer. Personally, in my games each cursor  each cursor is represented by its first name's letter (Anction with A, Look with L...). Anyway, it is just a suggestion.

About icons, i do not know if there is any special tutorial, but i now a very good program, Icon Catcher, which can help you. Maybe you can find it to the Internet for free downloading.
