When we first upgraded to Hive 2.0 (XenForo) we never imagined just how much our community would use the Media Gallery albums and the way you do it today
Members are increasingly using the Media Gallery albums to showcase their various projects e.g. posting WIP's of their models and skins, screenshots of Warcraft 3 terrain, concept art, 3D animations etc. We absolutely love this! Keep them coming!
However, we never established rules or guidelines for it. Because of this negelct some members started using the Media Gallery for image hosting, posting memes or simply uploaded pictures randomly found on the internet
We never intended the Media Gallery to be used for the such purposes. Which is why we are introducing a new set of rules & policies for the Media Gallery albums - to clean it up!

WARNING - We will begin deleting images on July 10th that violate the following rules. However, disciplinary action will not be taken against members that have uploaded pictures prior to these new policies.

Members of the Hive Workshop can create albums to upload pictures or embed videoclips. These pictures are all showcased in our Media Gallery and on your own profile page in your respective album. The guidelines and rules listed below explain which content is allowed and/or prohibited when using the Media Gallery feature. The generel site rules still apply. Members of the Hive are encouraged to report any violation of these policies. We reserve the right to evaluate each incident on a case by case basis. ALLOWED CONTENT Any content in relation to Warcraft or Starcraft is allowed. This includes but is not limited to: Maps Terrain Spells Models Skins Concept Art Other non-Blizzard related craft and artwork is allowed as well. This includes but is not limited to: Drawings Paintings Sculpting Graphic Designs 3D Art PROHIBITED CONTENT IMAGE STORAGE / HOSTING Do not use the Media Gallery to store images for URL's. Use our Pastebin instead for such purpose. MEMES / RANDOM PICTURES Do not use the media gallery to upload pictures of memes or other random pictures you've found online. Use our Something Else board instead for such purpose. Any pictures that are found to be in violation of these policies will be deleted without warning. If your picture is deleted and you disagree with the decision, feel free to contact the administration team by posting in our Admin Contact forum. In some rare circumstances the staff may allow a picture or video even though it doesn't adhere to the above policies

Patch 1.31.1 Live Update

Patch Notes 1.31.1

Patch 1.31.1 PTR Update

Public Test Realm 1.31.1

This patch hopefully fixes many of the issues that people experienced in patch 1.31.0. As always, please test and report any issues you encounter.

We've got battle-ready tanks on the Hive. We've got trees equipped with wooden weapons. We've even got ancient horrors that will cause insanity.
But sometimes it's nice to stop and smell the roses (which we've also got on the Hive).

That's right, this month's resource highlight is what I'm calling the Ultimate Bouquet of Flower Icons. Inspired by the spirit of gardening, and my local flower festival that happened the other weekend, this is your reference to find an assortment of flower-related icons for a variety of uses.

Have a look to see if any icons catch your eye.


The Real Deal Flowers
You're looking for real flowers of different varieties for one reason or another. Well, here's a good selection to pick from created by a number of different artists.







Action-Ability Plants
When you've got an active flower-based ability that needs a good looking icon, here's some good candidates to browse. They're a bit more than just the flower top and also have a bit more depth to them.






Sentient Flora
Looking for a flower with a bit of life to it? Perhaps a bit too much life? These icons by Kuhneghetz and Kimbo may be exactly what you need. A predatory plant of pain (with a model to match) and sunflower with eyes are perfect assets for your garden defence map.




For Your True Love
Love is in the air and you need an icon to resemble that. Well, viiva and PrinceYaser have created 2 perfect icons to look at. The "Charm" hand is perfect when you need an icon to say "give flower". But, the less specific rose bush can also spell romance without the hand.
