Image Collection

a collection of images i have made, or scoured from the internet: ones i agree with, like the æsthetic of, or any other reason

want a button of your own? i'll definitely take requests, but only if i think it sounds interesting - also, i'll probably procrastinate for an age as well (it doesn't have to be a cause i agree with, but obviously no "nazis rule" or anything like that)

this will serve as both a gallery, and a credits page:

Contents
  1. buttons [88x31]
  2. stamps [99x65]
  3. blinkies [150x20]
  4. antipixels [80x15]
  5. other art

More Info

feel free to steal any images you like – and message me with what you do with them!

hover over each image for more source: green means original creator, yellow means where i found the image. orange means made by me (underlined are links to aseprite .ase files), red means unknown source. "insp" means the inspiration for the design (direct or indirect).

i hope if i can start this as a trend then it'll be easier to find the original creator; if you take any of these i heartily recommend you do this (even just as an html comment) - i wish i'd done so from the start

any images not credited on this page, will hopefully have the source in the html:

<img data-img-source=[example.com] />

all window/desktop icons that i didn't make (you can tell which ones are mine by the quality drop) come from alexmeub.com, although there are more custom designed ones that i haven't used at raebear.net.

useful tool: a javascript bookmarklet for toggling pixelated and bilinear ("smooth") image rendering when viewing a single image in a browser:

Pix

just drag it into your bookmarks bar, and then click it when you want to trigger it


none of these are lazy loading, so if you're on a data/metered plan you should probably click away now

most of the following are my own as i'm neurotic about using other people's work, and also i'm the sort of narcissistic cunt who sees something and thinks "ah, i can do better"; but i've tried to link to the original inspiration

for those wanting a stamp template, this is free to use - the colours are to make it easier to see, change the colours in your own image

template

the corners are slightly unorthodox, but they look a little better than standard, i think

i'm not actually the biggest fan of blinkies, as they tend to make my eyes hurt; but i seem to have gathered a few anyways. i guess they're good for text too long for a button
