__Mine__

Didn't say it was the logo, its an icon, most logos have an icon with them, not just the name of the program, youve also made alot of excuses to not change it, first "not enough people are complaining" then when people started talking about it you change it to "its not that important"

"...than an icon which, as I've said, will basically just sit in a taskbar."
this is entirely wrong, where else is the icon? the logo of the mine-imator forums, the mine-imator website, and the eyes of a brand new user, whom if they saw just a green tape would be turned away, you got to give them something unique that draws them in, not a bland "modern" icon, at least that's my take

Welp, I feel like this is gonna be an exact repeat of what happened when Google updated their app icons, with people complaining about it for a day or two and then collectively forgetting about it, but eh.
I might have a few early designs that might satisfy some of you better, if that's what it takes to end the pings.

About that, though. If it's just going to sit in the taskbar, I still want it to be differentiated from basically every other program that uses a filmstrip for its icon. I liked the old MI icon because it immediately said "Mine-Imator" as opposed to just "-Imator."
Also, it's not that I don't like change. I do feel like the old MI icon needs some improving, I just don't like the latest concept as much.
 

A friend of mine said this on discord:
Also, personally, i think the top in each of these columns is the best icon for each software:
They're tied to minecraft while showing what they are.
A world importer, a section of a world,
a crafting table with props and stuff in it,
a crafting table (ties it to MI) being broken into chunks (since you can use modelbench to make models like that).

Yeah, I don't think two downvotes and a negative comment about is a big deal. If the reaction was stronger and more divisive, then I would've considered designing it differently, but I think the handful of reluctant people will either get used to it over time, or they can just... make a shortcut and edit its icon if they really don't like it. ?
 

Personally I find the new icon more appealing and cleaner; the only problem I have is that it doesn't really look Minecraft-y. I guess I could get used to that though, it's not a huge deal.

I gotta admit this is actually kind of cool

YES! I love this use of the ink sacs! It could create some really cool effects for builders!

oh, yes. I mean, at least then they actually had new ideas. This year they were just reusing mobs from Earth and Dungeons. What a waste.

@Ethaniel you're just keeping your bias because it wasn't the mob you voted for. I would have much preferred Mojang just adding all three mobs, but they apparently don't want to make the whole community happy.

No it's still useless. If it wasnt added they would have just used glowstone for the feature and they should have.

I think you misunderstand what I said, besides duplicating a rig, it's still a private rig. It's up to him if he decides to make it public or not.

@MojangYang Minecraft Story Mode was abandoned due to Telltale Games shutting down.

I think this is trying too hard to be like Blender, if I'm honest.
Mine-imator should never be made complicated, it should remain easy to use so newbies can make their silly renders/animations for fun while gradually building up skill, without being immediately overwhelmed by the program.
...All just my opinion, though.

It's literally become a meme that Americans will use anything but the Metric System.

The imperial measurement system is garbage. I have a german car so luckily all my tools and wrenches to work on it are in metric, so say if a 12mm wrench is too small for something, I move up to a 13mm. However, unless your tools are well organized or you have the numbers memorized, you basically have to do math to figure out what size imperial wrench to use.

i can think of one reason

This mod is (hopefully) going to add a Terraria-esque class and progression system. This ore in particular is supposed to be an end ore, killing the ender dragon will allow you to acquire it.

I actually use MCreator for my mods. I like it because it's easy enough to use that I don't need an entire team or a whole year to make a large mod, because I can focus on texturing and modeling (which I do better than programming.)

Looking great so far! I've been considering trying to make a mod too tbh...
