Not sure if this is where you want me to ask, but can you clarify what "negative space" in an icon would be/looks like? I know what it is in art, but I'm not sure it's the same here... :/
Large amounts of empty space, be it white space or whatever else. A la this icon - wait this icon doesn't have enough. Your icon has more. XD But this icon would do if the crop was further to the bottom right.
Regarding Pierce...what are the specifics of the guideline disallowing manga colouring? What I understand is that we can neither colour an originally B&W image (usually the scans that we read), nor recolour coloured manga images, but does the guideline also extend to the use of adjustment layers (selective colour, filters, etc.) and tools like Blur, Smudge, etc.?
Then...about Slash, is it acceptable to set a non-100x100 on a white base where the white is taken to be the part not included in the icon, or must it be saved in .gif format where there are actually transparent parts?
Finally, somewhere in the paragraph regarding Almighty: Note that you must use two elementals if you pick Almighty (but you don't have to use the guidelines). 1) Does Almighty give the user a free reign to use any two elementals, whether they exist in the user's current store or not? 2) Which guidelines don't have to be used? Additionally, each Almighty attack costs 50 gold to use3) Once submissions are accepted, 50 gold for each Almighty icon will be

1) It just means you can't color an originally B&W image or recolor colored images. All other color adjustments are fine.
2) Non-100x100 has to be non-100x100 strictly in dimensions (and preferrably under 90px). Negative space or transparency doesn't count in this case; the canvas needs to be non-100x100.
re: almighty
1) Yes. 2) The individual elementals' guidelines; you only have to use Almighty's guideline (no textures). 3) Yes.
Out of curiosity, for the Almighty skill, does cropping parts of the scan's original background and reusing it in a texture-like style count as using textures?
It says in the rules we can use up to a maximum of two skills; does Almighty count as two or could we use it along with another skill (striking three weeknesses at once)?
Almighty counts as one, so it's the only way to strike three weaknesses at once. :3
