I've made new icons. Mature, more 3d shape, darker in itself but mainly works better ingame.

Looks pretty good! What license are they released under?

Very good icon, it's best

Thanks Ludsky.

The new one is definitely better than the previous one, but both seems a bit like the balls are deflated for me... If it's not intentional, I believe that they could be better in the edges to fix that (not sure, but the ball seems to be not a regular circle one - as it should look when projected to 2D - on that images).

Edit: done a quick edit in gimp with a regular circle (the red is what should be outside the circle, and the greens areas what should be inside the ball, but is actually outside it - and it's what I believe is causing me the weird deflated effect).

Footballs aren't perfectly round you know...

I like the new icons!

I have to agree with farrer, for some reason they look kinda deflated/squashed to me...

Ah yay indeed, maybe the black hexagon at the bottom right is a bit flat compared to the rest. Except that, it's intentional that's not a perfect circle.
I have a file for each ball, and Inkscape layer system isn't as convenient as Illustrator's one, so it's annoying to edit a detail which (i assure) is not remarkable ingame.

I know that a football ball isn't a perfect sphere, but if you look at photos of balls in a similar resolution of the icons, you'll see that the distortion is so low (if even perceptible) that it will look almost like a circle (examples: here, here and here).

It's also the reason that in-game (where the resolution rendered is even slower than the posted original ones, if I not mistaken), the deflated effect will seem much more attenuated (if even so perceptible at all, as jymis said).

Anyway, as I've said originally, the new ones are much better than the old ones, even if deflated

Edit: With the help of Gimp's ball pump, I tried to quick inflate them (made than real circles). Not sure if better...

Thanks, I've added them to the game!
