Default [Icon]: Torrent..better than the last one

Suggested Icon:


Current Set:


Suggested Set:






Why?
A number of people hates my implemented torrent icon so I decided to go back to the drawing board and re-edit the icon.

Note:
The icon shows a much more powerful and spread out explosion of water than what is being showed by the current. I have also added some rocks being hurled by the water to give the impression that the ground is breaking apart(tnx to CoGGii for the idea).

The revamp looks significantly better. Nice work.

Thumbs up.

*EDIT : I'm not really a fan of the Tidebringer revamp, it resembles Yunero's sword too much. Thumbs down for the Tidebringer.

With the Torrent, I like how you changed the ground of the water coming out, looks nicer. Not so sure about Tidebringer yet.

How? Even I was not satisfied with the icon (with some thinking)... and I was the one who created it.

This icon is much better, although if you look at the whole iconset it doesn't fit into it as much as the current does. The reason for that is the higher contrast of the current. If you add a more lighter blue around the edges of the breaking ground like in the first icon, it will fit perfectly.

Yeah, that torrent icon is fine. Current one looks like a geyser,but this is the real torrent; overflowing, overwhelming.

Like you said, virtviuz, the new icon looks more powerful and therefore is better than the current one.

And I approve this message.
