Hello shsforumers

I was planning on creating new Vista/XP Icons for Planescape Torment, because the old Windows 98 256color icon looks kinda bad when it gets stretched. But it ended up with me creating a much more detailed Symbol Of Torment then I initially wanted to.  I used a picture from an unknown artist I found on the Internet as reference for the outlines. First I created a Vector Image out of an source image and then I made the Icons out of the Vector Image. I am also going to work on some wallpapers (still working on the background).

Here are the finished image as PNG in case any of you want to use it for whatever PsT/IE project you are working on. Icons for Windows and Max OSX can be found at the end of the post.

Finished Symbol of Torment V3 images - transparent PNG's - updated 11/07/2009 :
1280x1024


1900x1600

The screenshot above is based on a earlier Work In Progess Version of the  Symbol of Torment Logo, the actual .ico file is based on the latest version. Available for Windows and Mac OSX. Create a Link of Torment EXE, right-click, properties, Change Icon, select the .ico file, press OK.

Or use ResHack to change the embedded Icon of the  torment.exe (as seen on the screenshots).

I am also going to work in wallpapers and will post them in the "Layers of Reality" subforum.

Hail to thee, intrepid travellers. I haveth not forgotten thou!

It has been quite in this thread for some time but I will post the revised EXE icons later. The main Symbol of Torment Image has been finished, V3 is the latest version. IF you need it in a specific size please feel free to contact me (quality is higher if I export the vector image in the desired size than resizing one of the PNGs I posted here)
For the background layer of the PsT wallpaper I am owrking on and will post in "Layers of Reality" subforum, I created a simple version of the Symbol of Torment and you are free to use the SVG for your own Infininty Modding projects. You will need Inkscape (free) or a similiar Vector Art programm to make use of it. The advantage of Vector Art is that size doesnt matter. You can scale the Symbol of Torment with no loss in quality (read pixelation).

For more information on how to use it click here or use this direct download link: Symbol_of_Torment.svg

PS: By the way, SVGs can be directly viewed in Firefox. Hold CTRL and use your mouse wheel to zoom in
