Talking Guild Wars Windows Icon Set Version 2!



Status:

Assassin: Completed
Dervish: W.I.P.
Elementalist: W.I.P.
General: W.I.P.
Mesmer: W.I.P.
Necromancer: W.I.P.
Paragon: W.I.P.
Ranger: W.I.P.
Ritualist: W.I.P.
Warrior: W.I.P.


Yes, they're back. Due to both popular demand, and the fact that the old sets were out of date, (They were missing MANY skills)....couple with the fact there are new professions all together, I'm remaking the old icons sets.

These ones will be full skills sets (Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall) both elite and non-elite skills.

I've only just begun work on the new sets, so it'll still be a little bit till I have them all up. However, as a sign of good faith, I have already completed the assassin skills set.

To simplify links this time around, I'm going to be hosting these packages off my main site:

http://www.northwind-graphics.com/icons.html

In addition to posting the sets on there, I'll update this post whenever a new set is released. Currently my plans are to work in alphabetical order of profession. (Assassin, Dervish, Elementalist, etc etc)

Naturally I'm open to any suggestions you guys may have, and I'll do my best to incorporate them. Last time around an actual "Guild Wars" Icon was one that was requested, so I'll be adding one in to the "General" Icons package.

Installation Instructions are as follows:

Each Icon Collection is its own self extracting executable. Simple onscreen instructions will guide you through the process of installing these onto your computer.

To Change Windows Icons (My Computer, Recycling Bin, Etc Etc)
Step One: Right click on the desktop and select the "Properties" option from the menu.
Step Two: Navigate to the "Desktop" tab at the top of the Display Properties window.
Step Three: Click on "Customize Desktop"
Step Four: Select the object you wish to change the icon for (such as My Computer), and then hit "Change Icon"
Step Five: Hit "Browse" and navigate to the folder where you extracted the Icon Collection you wish to use.
Step Six: Select the Icon you wish to use and hit okay.

To Change Folders Icons
Step One: Right click on the folder and hit "Properties"
Step Two: Navigate to the "Customize" Tab at the top of the Folders Properties window.
Step Three: Click on "Change Icon"
Step Four: Hit "Browse" and navigate to the folder where you extracted the Icon Collection you wish to use.
Step Five: Select the Icon you wish to use and hit okay.

To Change Shortcut Icons
Step One: Right click on the shortcut and hit "Properties" on the menu.
Step Two: Click on the "Change Icon" button.
Step Three: Hit "Browse" and navigate to the folder where you extracted the Icon Collection you wish to use.
Step Four: Select the Icon you wish to use and hit okay.

I hope you all enjoy this second edition to my Icons!

Cheers
Nascent

I should have the Dervish icon set done this weekend. look for it late Sunday night.

Still waiting to hear from you guys if there's any other icons you want me to do up aside from the default ones based on the different skills.

Very nice idea. I'm now waiting for the Dervish icons.

Let me suggest another idea: what about a cursor set for the mouse?
I'd love to see my cursor as the GW

Those look sweet, and when your Dervish one comes out I'll be making use of some of those ones . Since you seem to be looking for suggestions for other ideas, you could do icons based on the different heroes from the games, or the various baddies... just suggestions though.

Any updates on this? I love your icons, but its been a little over 2 months since you said the dervish set would be out soon. Please tell me you are still working on these!

Also, your site seems to be down right now.
