Chris ChapmanLatest distraction from meaningful work: figuring out what makes BeOS icons look like BeOS icons and how to draw pixel art in that style
Eniko Fox@retrohistories these look great
@eniko thank you! once I've done enough of them to make a pack I'm thinking I'll put them on github under a cc licence
Aprazeth has moved@eniko @retrohistories oooh I agree! These really look good. Is this for personal study or will these be released at some point?
Also, wow, BeOS... That reminds me I wanted to check out Haiku OS again sometime :)
@aprazeth Just doing them for fun, but hoping to release them (probably CC-BY) once I've done a few more.
I've never used BeOS or HaikuOS myself; got inspired by a Mastodon post the other day :)
@retrohistories well from what I remember, you got the look down on those icons. I believe I saw a toot with the color palette for BeOS recently - might be an idea to check for that?
(Unless of course it turns you posted that and my brain just went mush lol)
@aprazeth yup that was probably me :) somebody else pointed me to a gif of the palette, I just ripped it and uploaded it to lospec. been working from that palette for these.
@retrohistories Awesome! Well my fellow Fediversian - you have my follow, and I'll look forward to your toots :)
