Layer Floater icons

Wasn't sure which subforum to dump this in (I also added the link to the resource in the comments), so feel free to move it if it's in the wrong one. :)

Someone commented on the Layer Floater resource that the lock and unlock icons are a little hard to discern, since they're so similar to one another. I did a really quick hack job on the icons, and here they are:

Lock icons

These go into:
$installPath/games/tools/gui/images

I still think that it needs to be much more discernable.

It would be nice if the lock and the background button were red... or maybe the lock color is not yellow but red.

That red x kinda draws my attention to that small area which seems like an eye strain.


Either way though these are better than what already exists.

I also did a hack job the other day and ended up with this:

Heh, I was debating which "scheme" to go with for the icons. With the miniscule size of the icons, I probably should have gone with one of the alternates. :p I'll knock up some alternates tonight when I get home.

I decided to make some of my own when I noticed this problem myself. Feel free to use them if you want. :)
