I don't think Markos would agree to an animated civgroup. Only a very few posters have animated avatars, and outside those and some small animated smileys, the forum pages remain static (which is how they should be, IMHO).
Anyway, anyone got a small anchor I could try to work with?

I think the blue is better.
Anyway, that's up for a poll to decide.

I wanna try it with an anchor too, but I was unable to find a good anchor icon. If anyone gets luckier than I am at finding one, please report back.

Now THIS is nice!
Using a simple pattern instead of a solid background was a good idea IMHO.

No - I like the solid, blue background better - it makes it easier to distinguish the axe.

Nice work Ghengis, looks good , would be a nice icon.

Shiber, the problem in your previous icons was not the ace, but too little contrast, you should make the part of the background that is just around the blade of the axe lighter.

I like the axe on the diagonal, and the blood isn't big enough to look like it to me, I'd get rid of it.
