Don't harp on me cuz thi is in the wrong forum, I;m sure it is, I couldnt find the right one. :p

ANYWAYS!
If I drew and scanned a bunch of pictures and made them into ability icons, (not using any other computer icons) would it look stupid in comparison to the icons that I don't (or can't) chnage? (ie: attack, guard, hold position, items) Also, what is the size of Icons? 64x64?

I think it depends entirely on what the icons look like that youd scan : / Someone could draw really good ones that could fit fine in game, others could draw something really shitty.

You can change them.

Wrong forum, moved. Really, it's not hard to see Artist's Corner in bold.

sry thought artists corner was for like.. well not what i was doing sry.
@chriz. I'm afraid now... I can't exactly say my drawings are very good. Their also kinda cartoonish IMO. But all ability icons (for heros) will be like this. They won't be computer modded in any way, other than shrinking them down to icon size. I'll scan up the first batch and upload them for you to see...

EDIT: attachted the first batch. I'm assucming they'll look somrtihng like this only smaller In-Game
The abilites are:
Top Left: Summon Blade Wolf
Top Right: Nerve Stab
Bottom Left: Sword Frenzy
Bottom Right: Blade Wolf Frenzy

EDIT EDIT: woah... holy shit i just looked at the thumbnail and its like uber huge. Any ways to fix this???
EDIT EDIT EDIT: nvm... just starts huge... well looks like i'll have to darken the images, theyd don't look like this on the papaer.

No offense, but those icons are crappy.
Id suggest if anything, browsing through the thousands of icons at wc3search.

yes i know they're crappy. I told you I'm not a good drawer most of the time. Good thing I only made one 1/2 batches.

why would you want to use them, why not ingame icons?

Tiki's tut wins, and you know it!

Yes, those pictures are unusable unless you change the attack etc. icons to crappy pencil scans as well.
