robot-outline Icon

Requesting a robot-outline icon. The original robot icon was created by @GreenTurtwig

Usage

We would use for our navigation menu. All of our other icons are outline except this one. It doesn't look bad but it would look way better if we had that robot-outline !

The closer the eyes get the less it looks like a robot and the more it looks like a Teletubby to me.

In example A, I left the eyes the same size (5x5 dps) as robot, but they felt a little too big and made the robot look like a Teletubby. In example B, I shrunk the eyes to 4x4 dps, but they felt a little too wide if they stayed in the same position.

So, I shifted the eyes in towards the center. I think this version looks the best. Even though the top and bottom of the eyes don't line up to the grid, they're at the same vertical position as the filled version.

I figured I'd make the off version while I was at it too.

nice work @Xenomorph99 ! for me it still seems like the eyes need to be brought in and up a bit. i did a quick mockup of what that would look like.

adjustments made:

  • brought both eyes inwards by 1px block
  • brought both eyes up by .5px block

What happens if we place it on a half a pixel. I think that might look nicer.

Here's what it would look like shifting the eyes outwards by 0.5 dps. Now there's only a 0.5 dps gap between the outline and the eyes instead of 1 dps like I posted above. It depends on how strict we want to be with the rules. I could go either way on this one.

I definitely meant the other way @Xenomorph99 馃槗

Haha! How about this then?

That's the one. Will add it later today!

Added.

@goyney or @Templarian can you add robot-off as well? It's in one of the first posts on this issue. I could try doing it if you'd like, but I haven't actually added an icon myself yet.
