Man, my pips have suffered a loss of popularity since page 2. :sad: (except you rpg you're great)

Also I'm with goldenratio and rami on this, I don't think the pips should be too distracting, though the burgers and legos are awesome graphics. That's why I did mine simple, and why I like gr's and dada's (?) originals.

If people want lego pips that bad they can do what Wyrm does and cover the defaults with legos, but for a default something simpler would probably be better. (imo)

it needs to be something simple for sure. I think gr's ones are probably the best, although the fast food stuff was really cool, but confusing at first glance

Well, as much as I agree with you on that pips shouldn't be distracting (but then people would ultimately get used to them), dopple's lego isn't distracting whatsoever. The burgers are more so (but still not much!) but after seeing them for more than a few days then they'd blend in so they're no problem.

I dunno, I guess the isometric perspective throws me off a little bit. I'm just too used to flat pips!

They could be laid on their side if the perspective throws you off that much:



I actually like how that looks. It's like the tower stacking idea, but horizontal instead of vertical, so it's more traditional (and it takes up less room so we could have more pips in a row eventually! There are 9 lego blocks below, and there are also 9 blocks above in this post. That's a lot of space saved).

Any possibility of having some default pips, and then being able to choose between like Dopples and Frankies pips once you're a premium?

I otherwise don't really mind, though I do like the lego ones.

Legos seem to be favored over cool orb thingies... hrmm.

Well even if, I tweaked my cool orb thingies:



As compared to the original:



Heh actually now that I see them both I think I like the old one better.

I might have a stab at the lego thing. The whole on-it's-side-isometric thing looks funny to me.

fyi if you do this have the only options being pips or no pips.

some of these are really cool but they defeat the purpose if everyone just chooses their own design, and there's enough stupid javascript floating around anyways.

...how? I'm saying all the people saying LETS HAVE THREE OPTIONS are being kind of dumb, just have PIPS/NO PIPS, not PIPS BY GR/MAGI/STRANGELUV/NO PIPS.

pretty sure the point of the topic is to pitch new pip designs so we can vote on a single one.

Oh right. I figured that we were gonna have a poll to decide which pips would be used.
