That's more coral or something blue isn't it :p ?
The..'scraggly' parts on the dagger make it look weird;
There's too many of them.

The glow needs to be lighter maybe;
It blends in with the blade too much.

As for the whole thing in itself;
Good job!
 
The way you draw it doesn't have the wc3ish feel. The handle of the black is way too dark for me to see it, I can't see it well unless I put alot of effort to try and se it.

Is this blade unique or something? It needs more unique features, perhaps a green glowing aura of some sort? What's that crack over there for?

I don't really like the background of this icon, you always seem to do the same backgorund -_-.

Take a look at blizzard's icon and such and try to copy their style of drawing and I'm sure you'll succeed :D
 
Ehh.
There's too many mach-WC3 icons already made.
A little difference in them like his (Minus the comments I had) is nice :p .
 
>That's more coral or something blue isn't it
Emeralds have a lot of variations :D
>The..'scraggly' parts on the dagger make it look weird
That is the idea
>The glow needs to be lighter maybe
Perhaps
>The way you draw it doesn't have the wc3ish feel. The handle of the black is way too dark for me to see it, I can't see it well unless I put alot of effort to try and se it.

I will make another version and submit it sometime in the near future

>I don't really like the background of this icon, you always seem to do the same backgorund -_-
Yep, black background :D

>Take a look at blizzard's icon and such and try to copy their style of drawing and I'm sure you'll succeed

It was something I did for fun and can come up useful. I am too lazy to learn to draw Blizzard style + I am a mapper. :D

Thanks for the feedback
 
I wouldn't have known it was a dagger if it wasn't in the thread name. :p
 
Wow, two new icons right after I popped my crappy one up...

As for the icon,
I agree with WolfieNoCT, wraithseeker, and Romek...
 
- I thought Emerald was green? Or is that something else?
- It too dark also!
- I thought it was a meteor or something!
 
it looks more like a ice dagger but that's not really a problem, what is a problem is that the handle isn't very visible so it looks more like a icicle. otherwise good :thup:

  • The Helper The Helper:
    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

  • The Helper The Helper:
    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/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
