From Andrew Meggs at Contraband Entertainment:
I can't draw, but I bet someone on this newsgroup can, and thus, in the tradition of Nate's Amazing Quake II Icon Contest, we have the Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2 Icontest. Entries will be judged by a distinguished panel of disgruntled programmers on artistic merit, compatibility with Apple's icon guidelines (proper masking and highlighting, folder icon looks like a folder, etc.), and, if applicable, cup size. Entries will be accepted either until Friday, until I put together the final installer, or until someone sends in something sooooo amazingly great that there's no point in continuing to accept entries.
To enter, email me (Andrew Meggs/andrew@contrabandent.com) with an enclosure containing iconic representations of the following:
* installer CD
* installer program
* game folder
* game application
* game DLLs (think puzzle piece extensions)
* game data files (i.e. .pk3 files)
* saved games
I'm lazy, so all entries need to already be in icon format (ICN#, icl8 and friends for the technically-minded) either attached to files or, even better because I'm REALLY lazy, in a single Resourcerer file. Please either include small icon versions or make sure your work still looks good when scaled down. Winner may receive some or all of the following thrilling items: a copy of MacFAKK, a mention in the Mac section of the credits, and randomly selected hardware that I smashed in the parking lot.
If you're looking for artistic inspiration, some good places to start or just gaze at the game in general are:
