Support NeoGAF

[McBacon]

So I was messing around in the XMB and noticed that you can change the little happy faces in the Users menu, but I was shocked to see that Sony didn’t include any regional icons. They probably don’t want to encourage multiple accounts across different countries, but as most of us at GAF do so I created these little custom ones.

Just press triangle on your signed-in profile, go to Information, click on the Icon and then go to “Select from [Photo]”, choose one of these images (or make your own if you think you can do better!) and spruce up your XMB.

United States

Great Britain

Japan (+ Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, for flair)

Other

Here is the PSD so I don’t become so kind of flag-face-merging workhouse. Just drag in a flag, cut it to the shape of the face and cut out the eyes/mouth. Then copy the layer style from the British flag and paste it onto yours. If you don’t have Photoshop or are completely useless in the program, just ask in the thread and I’m sure I or someone else can help you.

Template.PSD

Enjoy!

Anyway, veyr nice work. Will be using these myself =P

 

[El-Suave]

Thanks! They look great, I'll try them out later.

 

[MidiSurf]

Those are pretty cool, good work.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Wow, that's pretty awesome xD

I've been using normal flags but these are a lot better. Thanks

 

[john b]

[navanman]

First request:
Irish flag for me, please..

 

[ichigo kurosaki]

Nice but where's the European flag?

 

[McBacon]

Irish flag for me, please..

How about a Hong Kong one?

That one's a bit weird

 

[djkimothy]

No Canada? For shame.

 

[McBacon]

Nice but where's the European flag?

As a Brit, that one never crossed my mind!

 

[McBacon]

No Canada? For shame.

Now you're just making countries up...

 

[oneHeero]

Where is the Mexico face!?!

 

[McBacon]

Where is the Mexico face!?!

 

[NumberTwo]

Heh, that's neat!

 

[navanman]

Thank you for making this. Thanks again!

 

[Core407]

I had my user images set to the flags of their countries but this is much better.

 

[123rl]

Very cool idea - thanks McBacon

 

[h3ro]

Awesome job McBacon!

Any way I could get one with an Indian Flag??

 

[oneHeero]

Awesome thanks alot MrBacon, fuck your name sounds so good, I just want to eat you, I love bacon, I love it alot. I ate the Ultimate Bacon & Egg combo @ IHOP yesterday, 4 slices of bacon and my gf had 3 slices so I ate 2 of hers as well. My daughter threw her piece on the floor so I quickly picked it up and ate it since the 5 sec rule was intact. I love you MrBacon.

 

[JonathanEx]

He's McBacon, not MrBacon

 

[patsu]

:lol :lol
How'bout Singapore ? (Pretty please)

 

[NekoFever]

Nice work.

In case anyone's wondering, you can delete them from the photo folder once you've set them as icons. Just saves you cluttering things up.

 

[djkimothy]

Now you're just making countries up...

Thanks, I love the first one.

 

[McBacon]

Singapore

India

 

[slaughterking]

You're a very awesome person. Now I feel like I need to create an account for every icon you made. D:

 

[CSSer]

Awesome

 

[nny]

Ah, it's a great idea, they look really cool! If you could get around to do a portuguese one, it would be greatly appreciated (at this pace you'll soon have done half of the countries in the world ;P).

 

[LRB1983]

Wow, Awesome Work!!
Can I request Spanish Icon, please?

[McBacon]

Portugal

Glad you guys like them.

 

[h3ro]

India

Thanks so much!!

 

[BoilersFan23]

I've been using avatars from various animes and video games for all my accounts.

But, this is an awesome idea though. I always considered using a flag for each account, but this looks even better.

 

[McBacon]

Wow, Awesome Work!!
Can I request Spanish Icon, please?

Very nice Canadian bacon(which is just ham, we don't even call it that bacon is bacon)

Although how would it look if the leafs were scaled down to fit between the eyes and having bigger red borders?

 

[poppin fresh]
