This documentation sheds light on two primary categories of overlay icons:

  1. Social media
  2. Event icons

Social Media Icons

  • Purpose: To help streamers display their online presence across various social platforms, and allow viewers to engage with them beyond just the streaming platform.
  • Recommendation:
    • Makers should consider creating themed icons that match the overall aesthetic of the stream package.
    • This ensures a uniform appearance and strengthens the streamer's branding.
  • Example: If a stream package has a neon retro theme, the social media icons could feature neon outlines of platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Event Icons

  • Purpose: To celebrate and highlight specific interactions and milestones on the stream, such as a new follower, a recent donation, or a subscriber shoutout.
  • Recommendation:
    • Designers should craft themed event icons that can be integrated into various sections of the stream layout, especially on overlay bars.
    • These icons should be easily identifiable, capturing the essence of the event they represent.
  • Example: For a fantasy-themed stream package, a "recent subscriber" icon might look like a small enchanted scroll, while a "newest follow" could be represented by a glowing fairy.
