Online / offline icons

[Ohiosweetheart]

does anyone have any online and offline icons, other than the standard vBulleting light things next to the username?

If you look through the button sets in the graphics forums there are a couple of them burried in there. Other than that mine are custom and I really don't feel like giving them out to prevent me from not being uniqueish. But if I get an idea I'll gladly post some for you.

lol.. well, I wouldn't want you to do that, thank you

What kind of design did you have in mind? Pending you still want a set of offline/online icons I'll design some.

PS. I actually designed a set for you but switched off the computer forgetting I hadn't saved them.

Shelley, something simple. I'm not a flashy kinda gal. I'd even settle for the words Online, Offline.
I would like to be able to use them on any color background, so transparent is important.

I'll design something without any transparent areas or curved edges so that it compliments all your styles. I'll possibly post something later today.

Thank you Shelley!

Are these suitable for your forum? (Preview Below).

Edit: How many styles do you have? I'm asking because you could have different online markers to compliment each style. I'm asking because I find the curved pill variants (preview below) would look better (I can do a re-colour modification) but also save the curved online/offline markers to each styles matte background. Just a thought.

I'm sorry, but not really. I hate it that you went to all that trouble, for me to tell you that. But the blue buttons don't go with my styles at all. Kind of why I said that I would even settle with just the words online/offline on a transparent background. That way they'd go with all of my styles.

I'm sorry

No need to apoligise. These were designed in a couple of minutes (Feeling better?) I could simply just use text (but I'm sure even you could do that). though I can still type out the titles for you if that's what you need.

What kind of font would you like?
Would you like the font coloured? online=green, offline=red, invisible=grey? or all the same colour?

I would suggest going with a pixel font because even generic fonts, most fonts for that matter contain anti-aliasing which means implementing a full transprent text will look jaggy and taccy looking.
