If that were to happen, I would ditch the yellow, and make it red and grey or something. Yellow doesn't fit well with the dark color scheme of the site imo.

I think the D12 logo looks best - it fits the site the best.

While I like the idea of using the d12 icon as the winner icon, I thought it seemed kind of cheap to use it without modification. I also like the idea of using a gold star like the dominator star.

So I tried combining the ideas by making a gold medal with the d12 icon on it.

Also, I'll work on that 0 vs ? problem tomorrow.

I think yellow is better than red & black, because dead sign is red and black and winner won't stand out much. This way a glance is all that we need to know who the winner is.

I agree with PsymonStark.

@ Vexer, it looks good but when giving it a quick glance, the icon turns into a gold circle and doesn't really stand out as a "winner's icon" . I wonder though what would happen if you made the triangle stand out a bit more

@Fendi I'm not sure if the problem is with triangle. I think it needs to be more like what aeronautic suggested in order to make it stand out as a winner's icon.

Nah... It was better as it was before!

I am not a super fan of yellow really. But at least is well visible, and it put together the idea of the D12 logo and the medal. I think after very few games played, we'll get used to recognize it as a winner icon. But these comments are about the previous one by Vexer, the latest doesn't look nice in my opinion and also it's going to be much more similar to the "death" icons having that red outline.

I cannot understand, are the "death" icons smaller than 25 pixels or are all icons showed reduced when the browser stay at 100%?

They are smaller than 25 pixels but they don't take up all the space available.

Something like this? In perspective?
I didn't made it very well, but the idea... maybe.

Tried the ribbon in several positions, no one looking really wonderful.
I think it should be small and stylised, but I couldn't do better than that.

I do think the best solution could involve a ribbon but it looks like it will be a challenge to get it right.

@Bishop, too flashy imo =/

Vexer, why not take yours, leave the triangle gold and change the outside to white/silver/whatever fits? I think that might work.

Sorry hoodlum, don't really like it. But that might just be because the angles are off and the star has a cartoonish quality.

@The_Bishop, sorry but I don't like the angle you used since the other icons are flat.

I got some help from fendi to improve the medal and added a bit of ribbon. I think it makes it stand out better.
