Apparently the axe has caught fire.
...which is kinda weird, considering that it's a stone axe, but nevermind.Attached Files"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

How about an axe crossed with a banana? Or are we already fed up (literally) with the banana theme?

Well at least I am fed up with it. I like the axe with the lightning and fire most of all. Can you post a 16x16 image of that one? I found the previous images hard to recognise in 16x16 mode.
BTW, nice work!

Thanks, I actually thought that they weren't any good.
Anyway, the fiery axe is just as hard to recognize in 16x16 as my previous attempts.Attached Files"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

You can't even tell that it's an axe...

I figured that it's not my fault, it's the axe's fault.
The original axe, or even an axe with a solid color, is impossible to recognize in such small dimensions.
Oh, btw, I was mistaken - civgroup icons should be 15x19.
I'll keep looking for axe icons. Maybe I can find one that's vertical.
Edit: here's another idea - since we're the Vikings, and this is an archi. game with 80% water, do we want to incorporate an anchor into our civgroup icon?"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

Looks more like a cross if you ask me.Attached Files"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

Are we getting somewhere?
Btw, the lightning effect doesn't work well with any of these, the axe is too bright to be distinctively different from the background.Attached Files"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

Starting to look very good, Shiber, as is your PC.
Listen to the man - he does encapsulate our very civilisation.

MWIA: Thanks!
theViking: what kind of blue? (it'd be best if you could give me RGB values, but the name of the color would be okay too, e.g. navy blue, sky blue etc')"Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth,

Spammer.
I think the blood-red axes with the red works well.
I also wonder: Can the icons be animated? That might be interesting...Join a Democracy Game today!
