Heyo, let's get this official please!

 

[Heinvers]

@Sin'dorei300 would you be interested in such a contest? I think that we need your reply here asap since you were the previous Icon Moderator.

I'd personally be up for one if enough people show interest for it.

 

[PrinceYaser]

Well, I cannot draw portrait(unit) icons. It's hard for me, so my vote goes for Nature and Upgrade & Tech themes.

(I will try to draw unit icons, maybe I could learn.)

I've never participated in the Icon Contests before, but the 'Unit corresponding ability icons' theme seems very compelling.

Edit
If it could be applied to accepted textures and 3D models from the Hive as well, it would be swell!

 

[San]

Didn't vote any because I can't draw any.

it is applied to standard units, the Custom Skin/Model Icons theme is for drawing icons for unit from website database

Ugh... Rough choice..! I'll vote later today!

 

[BLazeKraze]

I'm still loyal to nature icons. So I voted for that thing. If this upcoming contest will happen, I hope I'm not so busy thus I can join again without being disqualified. Gonna avoid my previous mistakes.

 

[PrinceYaser]

Hey guys, how about fruits? Are you taken this theme before? I think that's interesting!

No.

 

[PrinceYaser]

No.

So, we can add it.

Please send S.O.S immediately.

 

[PrinceYaser]

vote theme nature for fruits.

Got it! I've voted it before.

reminder that ''standard'' in ''Draw 4 abilities for chosen standard Warcraft 3 unit'' equals to melee, to be even more explicit: ''draw 4 abilities for footman/knight/grunt/archer...''

Ah, thanks for the inform. I wanted to ask what did you mean of "standard" units. So, the most voted theme is "Unit corresponding ability icons" for now.

Imo, things should be related to something already exist in warcraft and\or hive resource section. Or be related to some popular project settings. Generally, ofcourse, i have no illusions that warcraft modding is something really outdated and hive is currently just some sort of geeky social network, but if we wanna have some fun via contests - it should be something related to things we currently have. So, cuz of that themes like Sci-fi or myth related are... mhm... wierd. Would love to see something like expanded classic warcraft icons, like, for example, 6 icons for classic wc3 races that already exist in default warcraft, etc.

Good to see some initiative, Murloc. ; )

So we shouldn't vote if we can't draw?

OK.

I voted for Upgrades (because they are always useful, especially for race-makers & for Trolls), Unit-Corresponding Abilities (because Trolls), and Custom Model Icons (also because Trolls).

I would've voted Other: Trolls, but I only had so many votes to give.

 

[San]

You are reported for being a troll.

 

[Kyrbi0]

As it should be.

Now I just need somebody to give me rep on that post with only the word "troll" and I will have achieved Trolls on every level of that post. Full Troll-ception.

Spoke too late. cya later gaiz, I'm ascending.
