Heres a pic from my new grenade explosion sprite. Its actually the 3.0 explosion sprite. But it took a hell of alot of work to make it look good and play correctly ingame. So don't think that this is just a straight conversion. Actually, this sprite took me 4 days of work to complete. I'll be releasing this as soon as my testers get done with it. Tell me what you think.:)

Also, what do you guys think of my sig?

meh, not that good. It looks more like a small apocolyptic explosion is about to occur, than a grenade explosion

Honestly, I like the default better.

But, anyway, your other work rocks. Keep up that good work.

It's too bright in my opinion, i think it should be a darker, grayer color.

The screen shot is a little goofy. Its exactly like the 3.0 explosion, only smaller.

The 3.1 explosions looked like flashbangs or something :(

in 3.1 the smoke after the grande was like a WW3 had just begun and that area was getting hit by a nuclear missile.

about the sprite, I really like it. All I would do to it is make make the expolsion firey part more transparent. Thats all I would do to it myself. Keep up the work.

lol, ppl are being so hard on you cuz all of your work is so good! like that water sprite... this is ok, its better than the default... because its way too small, my sugestion is bigger, and a little more arrange.

I think that a good way to make it would be to have a small flash in the center of the explosion surrounded by darker smoke. I would think that's about how real grenades look.

Looks good! Not something I would use, but good nonetheless, and I appreciate the work you obviously put into this.

By the way, release it anyway, just because the people that post don't really like it doesn't mean you shouldn't release it. Go ahead and do it, if one person downloads it and likes it, consider it a success :)

Yeah and consider 'put down' comments like Sclass12's as a fuel to make a much better sprite. I would use that if you would make it a little bigger and higher so I suggest your work on this then release it :)
