For the entropy icon, I'm thinking an "S" in black-and-red.

You chem people, YOU know what I'm talking about ;)

Jeraphon, doesnt Entropy already got an icon? ahhh i know, you dislike it xD

a S like superman? lol or like a sort of snake turning around his target to kill it ;o hehe
Title: Re: Fear icon
Post by: Jeraphon on August 20, 2007, 09:14:52 pm
just like a Times New Roman S with a creepy red glow behind it.

The same sort of S as in dS/dV = +dp/dT :)

well you know what Jeraphon? perhaps you could explain me what sens has entropy? how must it affect other people/monsters?
i just spoke with her and we got some problems to understand the word in itself xD

if someone can explain, please ;)

The "Entropy", as the probability of things happening, under someone's control ... this is the real source of witchcraft.

If you are a Marvel fan: You surely know the Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff) - that's what she does. Altering probabilities, the entropy.

Nice answer LigH  \\o//

we are working on many ideas for shadow icons right now but isnt easy to represent a shadow ..heh

if you have any suggestions ;o otherwise we got at least 2-3 to show to you later.

I always read entropy as the state of disorder or chaos. It can be linked to probability in that in any given reaction, things are more likely to get disordered than otherwise, and that entropy is always increasing.

Either way, the icon's good.

A shadow icon, huh? Um....black heptagon with darker-than-normal red around it? I dunno.

Shouldn't it have higher resolution for the client?

i think he can get modify as needed ;o i remember a sentence from Karyuu talking about that but dont remember from which thread. am i wrong?

I always read entropy as the state of disorder or chaos. It can be linked to probability in that in any given reaction, things are more likely to get disordered than otherwise, and that entropy is always increasing.

Entropy is a very interesting and complex subject, so complex that Wikipedia has an 'Introduction to entropy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to_entropy)' article. I also think of entropy as a measure of disorder and a good excuse to be inactive. You see, the more you get around and do stuff, the greater the increase in entropy and the sooner the heat death of the universe (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_death_of_the_universe) occurs. My lazyness is a public service.  :innocent:

The icons are brilliant too! Keep 'em coming.

Possible that I saw the "entropy" a little more from the view of the "Information Theory". Here, the entropy is related to the probability of specific data to appear in a stream. The family of "Entropy Encoders" (most famous: Huffman) tries to use shorter code symbols for more probable data symbols to reduce the encoded size.

The first famous simple "entropy code" was founded by Samuel Morse... ;) - Also you can count Stenography in.

These are good icons. :thumbup:

When is the next release coming out, Talad/Karyuu/acraig?
Title: Re: Fear icon
Post by: neko kyouran on September 07, 2007, 05:35:44 am
it comes out when the dev team feels it is ready to be released.  no indication is given before then other than they try to stick to a 2-3 month period between releases.

Ehh.  For the most part.  Whenever strange items are given out at GM events, I begin to expect a new release.
