Pretty cool.

How much are you paying for these?

I'm glad you liked them :) How many I will have will depend on the needs of my current project, so I can't say precisely.

By the way, in WIP there is code for using particular icons as separate graphic files, which should make it easier to use these icons.

That spearman character sheet isn't GPLed? What have you done, Andrettin?

What do you mean, what have I done?

In any case, the spearman character sheet is derivative work of the WC1 spearman (my understanding is that b_o resized the WC1 Spearman, touched it up, and then created a new head for it), so it can't be GPLed (and the same applies to the Water Elemental and water missile sheets), and even if the Orc Spearman unit graphics were not derivative work, it would be up to b_o to release it under the GPL, not me.

The icons themselves, however, are original creations, and thus I could release them under the GPL.

EDIT: I think I understand now what happened. When I uploaded the icons, I replaced sprite sheets which I had previously uploaded which had the same filename. Therefore, because of cache or something of the sort, when you first opened the thread, you saw the sprite sheets in my post, rather than the icons as had been intended.

I uploaded that spearman to Aleona's Tales when you said it was GPLed. Your folly has been immortalized! :P It's a shame, it looks so cool. :D

I didn't mean to say the sprite sheet was GPL, see my edit to my previous post.

I think it may have been an issue with Dropbox... anyway, I'm glad that this has been cleared up :)

By the way, is the new gauntlet cursor which you added to Aleona's Tales GPL?
