This is the first version to include Series logos explained in the post below. I hope you like this idea, and as always, more will be done in the future.

Introducing Series Logos

For the first time, I want to introduce "Series" logos which will be in my future packs. Series logos are logos of the whole series that will represent every game from one video game series.

Header of this post represent, as you all may know, Hitman logo which is used in every game since and is main series logo. Series logos will be put in separate folder in Archive you'll download but only since version 3.0 pack onwards.

I hope you like this idea, as not all game series have it's logos, for example, Max Payne (Every game different concept) and FIFA (every year different logo and year number respectively)

Thanks.

Windows 8 Tiles Icons

I decided to start making Tiles for Windows 8 Metro start screen. I couldn't find many good on the internet that I could download, except maybe a few, so I will make them myself and post here and on my deviantart page.

Expect my icons soon.

How to change Tiles in Windows 8

I know it looks very ugly when you install a game on your Windows 8 and the icon is shown among the other Metro Tiles on your start screen. I decided to search and try to find a solution to this, and I found it.

OblyTile is a program that create a Tile to the Windows 8 start screen. One guy from the XDA-Developers created this tool for all of those who want to change the application's icon into one nice Tile. Argony-OT is his username and here is the link to the XDA Thread where you can read more about it and download it for free.
