your Dpad should be wider then it is high

Also, the buttons aren't very round, but I love the letters, they really have that embossed look.

Should I shrink the top arrow or the bottom one?
I suppose it's the top one...

The up and down arrows are too pointy. You should make them more like the right and left.

The circles aren't circular enough.
http://spriteart.com - st0ven gives a good tut on circles. I'm
not sure if it'll help you in this perspective but, you never know.

I already know how to draw a circle but here it has to be elliptic doesn't it?
About the perspective and all...

I think Aleiav is referring to the "nipples" on the top of the
outlines. I noticed this too, but you only asked for help with the pad.
The perspective is fine as is.

This could be the final update :

(I had to change the letters because I do a side project, awaiting for
-DE- to come back, and this side project the player won't use A B
C but H G F)

The edit's very nice. The buttons' saturations dont seem to match with the d-pad's though, in my opinion.

However you shape the circles, they need vertical symmetry of the outline. The bottom has a 111343111 pattern, while the top has a 112242211 pattern.

You're right, it's much better now...
About the Dpad...I like the way it turned out, I think I won't touch it anymore ^^
Thank you all for the great advices :P
