Sick of that annoying clock.

Better but you went a little heavy on the outer glow of the '力'. I suggest you add a 2px dark gray stroke around the outside and increase the density of the glow while lightening the opacity.

Maybe the inner black was too deep...

Great Idea. What are your sources. I hope they're legal

Win Vista clock... But this is a quick beta try version!
I liked to remove the pointers and replace them with "strenght"... philosophically.
But you remind me a right thing. I need another clock.

Ok this is last try for tonight (0:45 AM here).

still going to heavy on the glows, make it's look amature. The lighting on the edges needs work too, it's pixelated.... as is the 力

but in game will be better to use a smaller version:



Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

Clocks usually have arms

Any suggestions?

Clocks usually have arms

I believe they are called "hands"


Also, the 力 is still pixelated, grab the svg http://svn.icculus.org/*checkout*/nexui ... rength.svg

You could change the li (strength) for the ren (patience); and take out the numbers. Does it need to be a clock?, It could be a circle holding the ren symbol. just meaning; patience!
Or the wait symbol could be used. It may be more appropriate. A clock gives a "time will pass" sensation, and a wait or patience says "wait, checking connection".

@ alpha: I know, but the meaning is "your time is engaged by Nexuiz at the moment..."

@ President: thanks, but those ideograms are too messy, the clock appears for a little while on the screen. IMHO is much better to use the recognizable "strenght" symbol... and, it better replaces the hands.




Now, this is less pixelated (I used SVG, thanks [-z-]). I add some gray at the quadrant and I played a bit with the edges of the 力.

Keep the red color around the clock, it looks better. Like in this version:

BTW, red seems to fit better. According to Wu Xing, red (fire), represents hot climate. If you suddenly disconnect and you were having an intensive game, you feel hot (at least I do when I've had an intensive game).
Also, according to Xingyiquan. Fire represents this combat stance: "Exploding outward like a cannon while blocking." Which, seems to fit a bit in Nexuiz.
Earth represents in Xingyiquan: "Crossing across the line of attack while turning over." which seems to fit more in Nexuiz gameplay. But, green doesn't fit with the other colors in the clock.

Hmm, took me 15 mins. to look all the stuff, whatever.
