PS3 button icon pack for you to use in homebrew.

[315Groove]

I made a simple pack of png files with decently nice looking button icons. You have all the face buttons, the D-pad, individual directions on the D-pad, as well as left-right, and up-down combos highlighted on the D-pad. Start, Select, and L1-L3, and R1-R3. I made the text on the L buttons blue, and the R buttons red to be able to identify them easier as small menu icons, especially on SDTVs. I also included versions of the buttons with plain white text, and put back in my bordered versions, so basically you have a version of every different type I experimented with in this "Mega-Pack". You could use them in menus, in-game events, instructions, whatever you want. If you want to use them in your homebrew, anyone is welcome to use these. If you need something simple altered I have this all in a nice project file to work with, so you are welcome to ask. Drop by and let me know if you release something using them.

I'm replying to a post from the mednafen thread here, so as to avoid adding more 'button talk' to that thread. It is better to keep it separate, not only to keep that thread on its main topic, but also because the use of these button images is relevant not only for that program, but for any program or document that needs help pages showing how to use gamepad buttons in various applications.

Here is one without the borders. I did it initially as a way for me to easily spot the difference on my TV.

I understand, and I agree with the usefulness too.
Like I said in the other thread, it is mainly a matter of taste that I didn't like those brightly coloured borders, as that is not how the buttons appear on a real gamepad.

However, in any elf help page, or free-standing document, where a predominantly dark or even black background is used, the brightly bordered gamepad button images will stand out much clearer than the normal dark-grey button colors can do.

So it may be a good idea to provide both the v5 and the v6 versions for download, though not as ascending 'versions' then, but rather as alternate color schemes. There is no reason for you to make a permanent choice between one or the other of them, since you can just as easily provide both alternatives and let each document or application author choose between them, individually for each case.

Point taken, and I agree choice is better. Threw all my versions in the Mega-Pack, and added new versions of the trigger buttons with simple white text as well. Every combo one needs unless they really wanted something different. Thanks

Updated the pack again, upscaled some of the buttons to look a little nicer, very minor update.
