Here is a Dwarven Explorer icon I made for my map. This icon was made for a specific model (link to model in readme).

Name: Dwarven Explorer Icons

As said above, this icon was made for my map but here it is for everyone to use.
In-case for some reason you don't understand what the icon is, it is a Dwarven Explorer with a background of a forest creek. Yup.

Could we get a link to the model here? =|

Post the icon paths.

It looks like a screenshot of the model, nothing more.
 
The link to the model pack: http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=93537

I think the icon is fine for people who want to use that model specifically, sadly it doesn't have a wide range of usage, but it seems acceptable.

Yes, the icon is just a picture of the model, but since it is for a model, I think it is ok..

Anyway, darken the DISBTN a bit more (primarily in the middle), and blacken out the edges to fit like all the other custom (and blizzard) icons.
 
The icon is not just the model. It is the model with a custom background :D
This is my first set of icons based off of any model. I just recently got into icon making...sorry
 
Wow, an icon that's just a CnP of a model with a custom background.
Try to sharpen it a bit and maybe it'll look better.
 
As wolfie mentioned, the DISBTN looks wrong.
Read a tutorial or something to see how to make DISBTNs.

Also, screenshots of models don't really fit into Wc3 at all. They'd look odd, and out of place.
 
If you don't like the model...don't waste your time in this thread...it's just here for anyone to use. I'm not changing it. So I don't know why you're giving me suggestions...
 
If you're not planning on changing this, despite the DISBTN not being the correct style, then I'll graveyard it. :rolleyes:
 
Well a DISBTN isn't always set to a particular "style". You are simply referring to the way everyone else makes icons and comparing them to mine, and also to the regular wc3 icons. What does it matter if mine is in the wc3 "style"? Maybe it was meant to be different. Go ahead and graveyard it. Seems like you have nothing better to do.
 
This is an icon made for use in Warcraft III. At the very least, it should fit the style of other Warcraft III icons. Think, man, think.

QFT.

Being a smartass to a moderator isn't a good idea either :rolleyes: ;
Especially someone as helpful as Romek.
 
It seems as though Romek has not helped me at all. Oh, and I wasn't being smart...I was simply suggesting him to graveyard this thread...

    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/
