I think you can put them in url's, but it's nicer if you just put them between image tags [ IMG][ URL]http://www.omgthisisapicture.com/[ URL][ IMG]. It's not that hard :p

Huh? I don't really understand your problem.
You have your icons ready?
Are you using photobucket or imageshack to host them?
If you are, then just copy the url that the image hosting site provides, it look something like... [IMG ]http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j22/Bonna2/EnergyBlast.jpg[/IMG ]

But without spaces in the image tags.

There are the little image or how you called that.

Icon 3

And here is the icon.......

Description: Well, It's a portret that is looking a bit weird. (Note: Look at the position of the pupils.). He is sees weird stuff around him that confuses him. Got this idea from a spell in world of warcraft: Fear.
Name: Fear.
Type: Spell.
Effect: The target starts seeing things around him that aren't really there and so he runs away in fear in a random direction for <X> seconds. An attack on this unit, except for damage over time spells, will break the effect.
Comment: Yup, the effect looks a lot like the spell from WoW.. but.. hey.. if I make a self-made pizza that looks a lot like one from the shop.. is it also.. ugh.. you get the idea I hope.. anyway.. the icon is 100% original. Took me one hour to make this one. Third icon I made.


Thank you, Pwnages

go to www.imageshack.us and click on "browse", search up the icon (that you edited),and click on "OK". After that a path from your pc will appear in the field that used to be blanc. Anyway, click on "Host it!"
Then many url's appear, the one you need is "Hotlink for Forums (1)". Copy it and just paste it when you're posting/editing a message. Preview the message so you can check that the image is working.

(PS you have to make the image 64x64 in an image editing program :))

Whitesock, please update the image with the appearence of the icons.

@Pwnages - Reinstall Gimp. Maybe it'll solve the problem. And, please look at your personal messages ;)

Wanna be one? Just say. Then I'll add you to the list. After that, you must submit your icon pack in the Icon Section. Read the rules carefully.

No, modify the pic that shows all 5 icons. You replaced one of the initial icons, so, update the pic that contains all of them.

I didn't understand really, are you allowed to take help from photoshop tutorials when making your icons or not?
Since I got a "warning" about it...

You are allowed to take help from them, but not to make an icon that looks exactly as the result from that tutorial. You must design your own style. For example, now I'm working on a text with that exploding effect. This what you have to do. You must learn from that tutorial and develop your own methods.

BTW, what happened with your entry, anyway? I said you to remove just those 2 icons and, if the others were results of other tutorials, remove them, too, but I didn't said that you are out of the contest.

Well... If it's allowed to use icons I took help from tutorials to make, why can't I use them?
You think I copied and pasted them into my icon?

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
