Social button icon for Spartan Marketing Academy

[Jill Carpenter]

Can anyone make a nice social icon button for this forum? I'd like to stick a button on one of my blogs. Others who may have some kind of marketing blog might want to stick one on their site too. Or it could just be me.

 

Could it be made from the little spartan graphic guy in the upper left hand corner?

 

I requested something like this years ago for a different forum, and someone made a nice little graphics pack for the members. I still have one of those buttons up.

 

Might be helpful in branding and awareness of the forum.

 

Something that would look nice:

I have the graphic design skills of a toddler. 

 

I might be able to find someone that can do something though unless anyone wants to volunteer.

Is your icon unique Mike?

I got it years ago from a graphics design guy. I am pretty sure he found it on one of the stock photo sites. The helmet was also found on one of those sites and then he did the circle around it and the coloring.

Ok, Mike, send me over a big jpeg, and l will give it a go....

 

I will squeeze it in between other projects.

Shane, those graphics are on jillcarpenter.com if you want to check the sizing. Might be good to have a few different standard sizes in the final output.

[Mike Friedman]

This should work fine as a social button.

Thanks Jill, enjoy.

Orange is my fav color, and no offense to Mike but yours do have a tad bit more dimension.

Gulp. ok Jill, but l hope that l get a Spartan T-shirt, he, he, (small joke)!

 

 

PS l would also recommend that Mike download this,and maybe offer this on a sticky to everyone, with their own download, etc link. It would probably look more professional?

 

They can take their time, l am in no hurry, lol!

 

[Mike Friedman]

Lol... Thanks for the effort.

 

i should have been more clear in my post. I meant to say there was no need to create anything else as the round button was just fine.

 

Thanks though.

[Jill Carpenter]

Ahh. See how nice this looks? But might need to get some custom shadowing done.

I'd also suggest that you use something like this as your "preview" image.  I tried posting something (as a Facebook private message) pointing to this board, and the preview graphic advertised IP Board instead of Spartan.

[Mike Friedman]

That image has actually been updated. I'm not sure why Facebook is not pulling the image correctly. I just uploaded a new one, and it still is not working. The one that Facebook is pulling doesn't even exist on the site anywhere now (that I can figure out).

 

I also used this https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

 

which I understand is supposed to flush out Facebook's cached info and pull new data. Still no dice.

Ok, Jill, easily done. I will do it when l can.
