Note 1: These icons have intentionally been designed to be rather small and unobtrusive. Rating information should not dominate the web page, it should be available when you look for it. Making the rating icons too obtrusive will cause people to not accept using them at all. Note 2: There is usually a problem with distinguishing items at the top end of the rating scale. A common solution to this is to introduce half stars. I have tried below, to introduce a four-and-a-half star icon. This will not work with the dice-formatted icons. A better solution might be to slant the rating scale, so that it has more resolution in the upper end, as I have proposed to the project. Note 3: Icons which below are shown in table cells with a background colour, are anti-aliased in order to look right with this particular background colour. They may work also with other similar background colors. For example, my experience is that the icons for white background will work OK, also with a light yellow background. |
