Description
This is sort of last minute, but I wanted to get my entry in here. I basically started with two ideas:
1) Use the pencil icon to represent pixel art (as it is the primary tool used)
2) Use the isometric metaphor of blocks, spheres, and cones
My entry looks very similar to *zoanoid 's, which I'm aware of. The thing is, before he submitted, I had the same idea after looking at the DesktopX icon (take a look and you'll understand). I was beat to the punch, but my icon differs in a few areas if you really look.
I decided in the end to combine both ideas into one, as isometric items don't fully represent all that is pixel art. The pencil was added to make more of an impact. I then added a "P" which is exactly like the P in ~tronbot's entry. I didn't copy it on purpose, but there's only so much you can do with that amount of space, and that particular P looked best (I tried several different variations).
So hopefully I fit all that into a 16x16 space. I think it looks good, but will the masses agree that this is a good way to represent the Pixel Art Gallery? We'll see.
