Graal Icon Challenge!

I thought it would be fun for everyone to try if they wanted and even if you don't know how to make a icon file they can post it as bmp or whatever and if people like it they can make it a .ico file.
The reason I want a new Graal Icon is because well I have windows XP and it looks ugly with all the nice icons and such that I use.

If we get alot of entries we will have a vote for the best and winner gets a prize.

I myself will be entering but Im waiting to see what people do.

Good Luck to everyone!

P.S. I posted this here so everyone can see it

Someone should make an animation to show how the Graal icon is really just a mix of Fung Si Yang and Ninji Knight. It took me a while to figure that out myself.

I used a gradient on the face, decreased the fill, and changed the hair/eye color.. not a lot, but it still looks ok. I'm not a big graphics guy

I really suck at graphics, and will probably work on it later.

You mean something crazy like this?

Ahh... but Classic graal is based on collecting the four graals, plus the white and black ones as well I suppose.

Contrary, Graal isn't being advertised for classic anymore so I suppose something based on G2k2 would do well?

It does a great job of matching the XP icon scheme and accurately reflects Graal.

Here is my text version for an icon.
http://justin.cybnext.net/graal/GraalIco.ico

It looks bad from the browser but looks descent when you use it.

With your current version, yes indeed. However if somone did do a fancy 'glassy' grail it would look nice indeed.

I agree...

added a few highlights, makes it look a little more like a glossy/glassy obsidion type surface..

Bowl needs glossifying but im not sure how to do it well...
Maybe a bigger lip with a shine?

I like it, tho if you put some of those weird XP effects (the strange glow) it would look better, you can get a program to do that effect
[EDIT] if you want, I can convert that to .ICO for you. [/EDIT]
