@Facer_Official . Has Facer.io got a separate Apple Page now. Facer.io does not give an option to select a Device any more so Apple Fresh Faces and Apple Trending can not be previewed there at the moment. The top 100 can be previewed as they have a Filter.
So they have said it now . I have just had a notification that I have had 1,000 syncs on an apple watch that had Digital Hours and minutes on it . Not one message back to say it was not working . Oh Well .
I find that you have to log out, refresh, then a pop up asks you to select the device & saves it for you.
I didn’t even know there was a doanload version…
I also have a couple apple watches with 1,000s of syncs. Not one person commented saying things aren’t working, or they are, or anything. Odd. Apple crowd is a bid different I guess…
Thanks @bradtc . So I guess you have to do that trick again to get back to WOS. Best I give it a go . Different Folks Different Strokes.
It is also annoying that it takes 30s to 3 minutes to change tick marks/number styles. It was not that slow priorr to V7, I am sure. Using browser version as windows app was much slower for everything previously.
I also wish to repeat my lament at the loss of the decent stickers we had in place of Icons I am sure I will never use any of. I can’t see myself ever using any of the new icons where I regularly used several of the stock stickers.
Also, why do we need 3 feet icons? and whay is the deal with 3 fire icons? I am pretty certain I will know if my watch is on fire. 2 battery icons with too much detail and 3 heart icons, also with too much detail.
Where is the watch icon, the phone icon? The watch icon in particular was a go to for mine to indicate which battery guage was which and I have not been able to find or make one as nice, clean and simple as the old facer sticker.
Again thoug, why 3 of many icons instead of a wider veriety of items and, most importantly, why fire icons? What could they possibly be needed for in every day usage?
Invoking @Facer_Official and @Rator as advised.
@rob.fisk Sir may I suggest you invoke @Facer_Official or some one like @Rator who is one of the Partners that often contributes. Having said that I have tried that with no effect but I think they ignore me these days. The Fire Icons are for the Calories Burnt on the Apple Watches. We need 3 so there is lots of Creative Choices. I am wondering when they are going to have a Chat with the Open Weather Guys and get the those Icons sorted. Actually I have just decided this is the last time I intend to raise the subject. It is Christmas. Have a Jolly good Time everyone who Reads this. All the Very Best for the New Year.
So, Facer are going Gung Ho Apple now they have Apple approval and ditching all the previous decent generic stuff?
That’s a bit rubbish.
I dont’t mind that apple is the default int creator on new watch but deleting the decent content we had before for rubish content I will never useis added is poor.
@Facer_Official Give me back my stickers
Also, can they make jsut one flame and let you colour it, as is done with all other icons? If not then allow many, many nore icons. That would include, of course, those previously tagged as stickers, with the exception of the crappy smily
All of those old stickers are available on sites that offer free icons. Just download them and edit them to fit your designs - or you can create your own colorful ones. Most of us use graphics applications anyway.
Maybe I’m not understanding what you are requesting, but I don’t see a problem with finding icons.
@Linlay. Would you say the same thing about the Weather Icons or would you prefer a more Sorted set of Icons for those Just Beginning thier Face Designing Journey. Or do we not concern our self’s with the Newbie any more. I have no trouble drawing my own Icons but I see Designers who have published loads of Faces still using the Facer Issue Hands Etc.
The problem of finding your own icons is the thousands of terrible ones you have to sift through to find the one decent one you want. In 2 hours of searching I could not find anything close to the simplicity of the previous watch sticker. Then there is the fact that half the sites just take you through loops of not actually downloading but linking you to paid versions.
Also, there is the fact that they were there as a one click option for decent, clean icons and have now gone.
Too much whining and whinging here. Facer does what they can for all of us, they can’t cater for each and every individual. @rob.fisk if you want a good, simple Watch Icon, then simply look in the Resources section.
Considering the days it takes to create a good watch face, spending over 2 hours looking for an icon doesn’t seem like a lot of time.
I also do not understand reason, why to remove stuff already made and replace it with new, when there is nothing wrong with the older one, instead of just expanding the posibilities. I also liked some of the previous preset hands in the version before last one, but they are gone now, while they could just expand the collection. I can live without them, and draw my own images, but why invent wheel again, when it’s already been done.
It would be nice to know some of the intended changes before they are done, so we could backup some useful resources.
@russellcresser Just do what you like. I use Facer resources often. Other times I create my own or look for free icons. I just finished a Valentine design that uses Facer’s second hand and my original hour and minute hands. I’ve also done the opposite. Creativity is what makes designing watch faces fun.
@Linlay . I take your point. The point I was trying to make is it is not so easy for those Just starting out like we did. Not so long ago for me so I remember it well . I have published in Resources some Weather Icons that include a Mist one. I can not pretend that all the newbies will see mine and MAG s notes on the subject.
Thanks for tha @petruuccios t. It will be a good go to.
I had no intention of whining @icrltd4, I just sometimes word things badly. I was just pointing out that resources we had used regularly suddenly vanished and I hadn’t even seen that change in beta and that the new alternatives had a massively reduced set of items represented over duplicating different versions of the same item.
I was just wondering why there could not just be a larger icon set including the simpler icons we already had and the other object types.
It would be a really nice draw to bring in beginners if there was a much larger selection by default.
To actually reduce the selction of icons by trippling up on a few of them seemed counter productive.
In the non pro arena there seems little to complain about in the creator aspect, aside from that loss, now addressed. I was pleased to see the first step play mode of the time machine move from 1/4 of a second to a second for realistic replay.
It does now seem to take 30s-3m to change from one default tick/numbers to another but having worked mainly on digital faces leading up to V7 I can’t confirm that the version change is the reason. I have tested this in several browsers, on several PCs though and it seems to be the current situation.
I’m not a fan of Android playing second fiddle when clicking New Design, but I imagine Apple users were not a fan of being second fiddle previously, no. Not a complaint at all but a suggestion that a split pane New Design default could be a good compromise here, keeping people happy on both sides of the fence…
Also it’s the choice. Feet I can find but the icons add 3 I would never use (others would I am sure but why 3?)
Flame for calorie burn. Would a designer use 3 almost identicle icons of the same colour or just use one and tint for intensity?
Heart: A basic one and one with an ECG. Job’s a godun. If we need different we can look for it. It has been said so here. Why do we need 3 different ECG hearts?
I am not whining I am stating a design ethos. We are now missing default pickable representations of the aspects of the watch or its mesuarable items and the simplest versions of them within the creator itself, ones we regularly used so were great to have on hand. I’m just trying to undesrstant the reason for a change like this with no pass through beta.
Many thanks again to @petruuccios for filling this gap. My attempts to find/recreate the images were fruitles or jaggedy unusable. I’m not a graphics guy.
My strength is getting the maths right in an overcomplicated way until I am corrected into simplifying it.
Nice one Rob. Exactly why this Topic was Posted. At least everyone is understanding the Icon / Stickers Issue. 
I hope everyone has a Wonderful Christmas and New Year. 
It is improving with feedback too. Status levels auch as barrter, steps and HR are remembered rather than reset. More good to have that back again.
