Icons for 2D Map Designs

As many of you forgers are familiar with, its sometimes a good idea to include a 2D plan version of your newly forged map to help others get a better visual understanding of it before downloading. Whilst recreating the map perimeters in any design program (i use Flash for example) is pretty straight forward, it becomes annoying having to make up labels and add keys where the weapons, equipment and vehicles are meant to be. To make things easier for any 2D map designer, i have made icon sized versions of all weapons, equipment and vehicles from good quality images on the net.

Simply, all you need to do is after you've made your map perimeter design, just copy any of the following icons and paste them on your plan.

Important Note: Due to there being a limitation on the amount of posted images per thread, i had to obviously continue the thread into three posts, before anyone starts bleating.

Weapons

Assault Rifle
Battle Rifle
Beam Rifle
Brute Shot
Covenant Carbine
Energy Sword
Flamethrower
Fuel Rod Gun
Gravity Hammer
Machine Gun Turret
Magnum
Mauler
Missile Pod
Needler
Plasma Cannon
Plasma Pistol
Plasma Rifle
Rocket Launcher
Sentinel Beam
Shotgun


(Continued)

SMG

Sniper Rifle
Spartan Laser
Spiker

Equipment

Frag Grenade
Plasma Grenade
Spike Grenade
Fire Grenade
Active Camo
Overshield
Custom
Trip Mine
Bubble Shield
Power Drain
Flare
Radar Jammer
Regenerator
Portable Gravity Lift
Deployable Cover

Special Equipment
Skull



(Continued)

Flag
Bomb

Vehicles
Banshee
Chopper
Elephant
Warthog
Ghost
Hornet
Mongoose
Prowler
Scorpion
Wraith

So there it is. No more annoying labelling and just conveniant copying and pasting! Hope that helps you map plan designers out there.

I genuinely think that this should be stickied.

This would help very much, this indeed should be stickied to the map posting thread?
