fully agreed

Do what you think that is good for this site.
Nothing more to add ;)
#20
Yes I can ;)

Accepted

These following types of icons are allowed.
Have to have the metal frame
Recolors but have to look Real good
Well done icons shadowed.

A friend of me said it was looking good,
so I thought it would fit with that rule ^^.

Once again, you checked the old rules. And I think I already pointed that out. And now, let me quote:

• Plains recolors are prohibited. Simply taking an already existent icon, either from blizzard or any other user (that includes yourself, I don’t want to see five identical icons, in different colors) and recoloring without any further changes will lead to the deletion of that icon.


I hope you got it now so I want to see the icon deleted please. ;)

Bah, noobpowa stands with me :(
Bye bye blue flying lines =((
#23
Will you delete those ugly MtG icons too? I forget who sunmitted them, but I'll try and find out. They're snp from the card art, and horribly blurry as well.

Can this be a thread where we link to illegal icons for you? It'd make your job a lot easier.
#24
Good idea Metal_Sonic. Go ahead people, I'd be glad to hear your opinions about bad icon. ;)

Unfortunately for now there is no rule preventing such icons from being posted. BUT, what do you say about this rule?

Screenshot icons or recolors are not accepted for Blizzard units/buildings. Or else I would see like... 10 demon hunters, 15 taurens and so on. Do you find it a good idea?

~Daelin
#27
Yep Daelin its a good idea, recolors usually are very crappy, and recolors of blizzard stuff... Meh... Delete them!!! :P

And screenshots, pff, shouldent be allowed at all, no matter what game they are from :?
#28
But, say, we make a very nice freehand tauren icon? It will be accepted right? I'm going to dive into the icons section now and find some icons for you Daelin. Wish me luck.
#29
Drawing a tauren icon from scratch aint the same as recoloring it nor is it the same as making a screenshot, so yes it would get accepted.
#30
I realise that, just the fact that there's already a perfectly fine one ingame. Anyways...

Here's the first batch:

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10255&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d- Wrong frame and DISBTN

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10250&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d- Crap recolour

I won't bother lsiting any more on the first page though, let's try page 41... Well, there's 7 versions of an icon "HandofPower" that are knid of repetive, I'm not sure if they break any rules though.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10133&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d- Crap Alien icon

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10112&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d- can barely distuingish what it is, the description says sawdust...

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10175&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d- recolour of fairy fire (ugly too).

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10092&sid=d66a8818e9ad3fc4c1a9be26884a655d-
looks to be an ugly cnp, no DISBTN.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10050&sid=432969a85a48db9834c2328ef87ba455-
Ugly icon, and DISBTN is incorrect.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10055&sid=432969a85a48db9834c2328ef87ba455-
Cnp, and Afronight has made a Megaman model and icon.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=10056&sid=432969a85a48db9834c2328ef87ba455-
Same thing with this one.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=9918&sid=432969a85a48db9834c2328ef87ba455-
Tiki has made a perfectly fine freehand icon for this model, this one is unneeded.

http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Icons&ID=9462&sid=432969a85a48db9834c2328ef87ba455-
No frame.
