Question: why did you stick all 4 diagonal sprites togheter? o.O

[Unpredlctable]

you used the tags fine but the link is wrong, that's the stupid thing imageshack uses. insert the "direct" link in there btw

Thanks for the link. I always used to do this way and it was working :/

Anyway, it's a blade I made long ago, at that time I didn't know how to use the templates (or what they were made for) and I was pretty mad with them lol
I just want to improve that one because I know this blade can become a great one.
I mean, the old one just sux, I finaly don't really like the wood part and such.
I modified the blade a bit, and removed the wood.

What kind of handle should I do ? (Not the one where your hands are, the one between you hands and the blade)
