Great job man! Very usefull! 5/5 + rep
I wonder why moderators looks at the name. The item itself is important. If I make a map and I give it name "Golden River" it has to have a river that is golden?
I think it is stupid to reduce the rating or anything because the name is bad. If you make a map you do not see what the icon, map or item is named in The Hive Workshop.... Just my opinion of course. =)

We have various clues as to distinguish what an icon wants to show. Since we can't (or couldn't) see what the object really is (was), the name is the next big clue. Jolly called this an orb, so Pyra told him to create an actual orb-like object.Pyramidhe@d said:

True, but Pyramidhe@d has a point. The icon is supposed to be an ORB. And what is an orb? A circular object or thingy. And with the current stauts of the icon, it doesn't really look like an orb that much. But, it does look good, but needs more work. Just keep practicing and working on it.

Yeah, I understand if the icon is called sword that people won't understand that there is a mace. But 'orb' atleast in finish language we do not have exact translate for a word like that. And maybe that is why I do not know so perfectly is there requiments for that what is orb. Atleast I think that we are speaking about art now and it is up to artist which is what. And atleast I could image that there is an orb though it does not show up too well.
Like we say in Finland : "Beuaty is in the eyes of the beholder."
Don´t know does this phrase exist in other languages but I think it is perfectly said.
Edit : orb = astral body and ball in finish language. So it does not give really good picture what it really is...

Totally agreed. "Orb" concept is rather weird.
BTW. Beauty is in your brain, not in your eye. Lol
This is such a waste of good icon.. If so many people seems to have a problem with it not beign similar to their "orb" concepts, maybe it should be renamed to some sort of icy spell to get approval?

I will explain this for the last time:
The shape, WHATEVER it is, is too undefined. That's the main issue here. THIS is Pyra's statement that is most important.
@Jolly:
While the large image looks fine for some parts, you use WAY too much plain white, which creates a mess in your icon. Also, you really want to learn to create sharp edges.
You use a really dark shade of blue for the edges of your orb, which blend in with the pure black background.
Define your big image better, and you will see how your icon will be much clearer aswell.
