In the icon part, it's to cartoony and i cannot imo see a shadow, nor a glaive..
 
Agreed, too cartoony.

Try making the glaive take up more space. Also usedarker colours for the back ground.

I would also make the blades longer and make them look sharper.
 
what the hell is that red green and purple square?^^
 
uhm, is that image the icon??

i was also wondering. because it isnt a square and because there is no border. and because it doesnt look like something you would use (in warcraft). maybe you should make it look more like an icon and then make it look more like a good icon.
/edit: hm, it really seems to be a square but it doesnt look like one oO. maybe show a preview in 64*64?
 
honestly, it is awful, looks like a giant blurry smudge

try not using so many colors and drawing the outline of the weapon first, and then going from there
 
uhmm...why doesn't it look smaller? you know, like an icon? eh. i guess that's the raw file? is it possible to upload the war3 in game version? and i thought for sure the raw files are normally like a 5th of the size of that thing, or some kinda fraction like that... anyway, doesn't it have borders? but it does look interesting. :)

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
