WIP: I need some opinions on this cc project

I have an idea for a new cc project. It's pretty quick and easy, using the icons again, but I need some opinions. The focus group has ~virtual~ coffee. All participants get a free massage (and maybe more) from Ripp.








It's just a simple thing, using this edited mesh (from Maxis Dreams, I think... I have to figure that out), combining the white shirt with the plain jeans, and adding a little aspiration logo to the chest, and colouring the sneaks to match. I'd do all the aspirations.

So what do you think?




My only concern is how blurry and pixelly the logo is when it's close up, but that was an issue with my woohoo icons as well. It's just the quality of the icons themselves. Does this bother you? Should I make the logo bigger? They're usually about that size, so I wouldn't want to go too much bigger.

Is this worth doing? Please inform.

Thanks in advance! ^_^

Hmmm, I don't know about making it larger. It's already pretty big compared to the logos on Ralph Lauren and Lacoste polos. I do want it to be big enough to see, but I want it to look like the things I'm immitating too. It's a fine balance.

Thanks. ^_^ I've been getting the urge to do a lot of things for the sim guys lately. The poor things need more clothing options.

Yea.. I can see where your thinking from, I wasn't thinking "ZOMG FULL BACK DESIGN" or anything [LOL] just a teensy bit bigger, so from a distance (see first pic) its a smidge more noticeable, maybe this could be achieved with a black back border? I *think* I have a bigger version of the Asp. Icons.. Oh! found it!




Be welcome to use it :)


I'm tempted to do this for myself, But Its your idea so I better not Nick it from you XD

Oh, thank you so much! That one is much better. It even has the outline already too. Maybe I should have shopped around for a better logo before I started. :P

Where did this one come from? I'll need to track down the other aspirations too.

I definitely see what you're saying with the size, but if it was clearer, it would be more visible close up, and I think that's the key. Like I said, it's a fine balance.

Well, I'd prefer if you didn't rip me off completely (feel free to Ripp me off anytime you want, though), but I don't have a copyright on ideas. Feel free to take it and run with it (and you don't have to credit me for thinking it up, or anything so lame as that). If you end up making more cc with this, I can only win.

Thanks for your help! ^_^

Its not a problem!


I got it from at set of extracted Icons from MATY [I cannot for the life of me remember where; that site confuses me like hell!] and it has almost all of the icons for stuff like that :)

Ripp away! LOL


If you want, I can just get the asp. icons for you, I think I know where they all are; and Its not too hard to do :)

Hmmm, I think I have the ones from MATY, or from SaraMK (I think that's how it's spelled...), anyway. Maybe I just need to look through the whole set in more detail. There are a lot of them.

Well, you don't have to, but I'd appreciate it if you did do that. :)Thanks for offering.

Hey, I know I'm a little late to say thank you here (I was sure I did, but I guess I got sidetracked o_O), but I recently revisited this idea, so here I am.

THANK YOU! :D

I'm going to make an honest go of this project, so there should be something available soon.
