Kimbo: Hi there venger07
Sadly, this icon does not have enough freehand in it.

Do not get me wrong, it looks nice, but you have only blacked out one part of the blade and recoloured some areas. It is just too similar sadly.

The icon rules state that icons must have at least 50% freehand. Sadly I am going to have to reject your icon, and I apologize for this massive delay (I was recently promoted to icon mod).

However, hit me up if you need help making anything freehand I can provide you with guides and advice on making a freehand approvable icon. Remember, don't give up! Cheers

Please provide evidence that you made it. You can do that by showing a big picture, WIP (work in progress) pictures, or send me a photoshop or gimp file with UNmerged layers. If they have been merged, it is not any good.

ok , sorry to ask you this but how do I send it to you? I'm newbie... I used the Iron steel Sword from the techtree upgrade icons... then I edited it in GIMP..

Well, edits are only allowed if they are more than 50% freehand, or extremely useful, and I don't believe this is either. If you have to consider how much it would take to draw the original icon that you edited, would you then say that you drew 50% of this icon?
You can send me proof in a private message, by uploading your evidence in a pastebin and link the pastebin to me. Here is pastebin;here

Well, I guess I can say 50% is free hand.. you can compare it with the Iron Steel Swords from techtree upgrade... ok I will paste that when I have time.. I'm just renting in computer shop..
