are no such thing

Alendar

Yes, I am pretty sure there are. StealthBot uses them. As does SphtBot v3.

Do you mean this and this scaled to that size? That's all they are. :/

Yes, that's pretty much what I was looking for but I want to know the contents of war3-icons.bni and w3xp-icons.bni as well. I can't scale those to size either, they become very ugly.

I have seen those, they are nice but I do not like the border on them. Thanks though.

Já jsem byl určenej abych tady žil,
Dával si ovar, křen a k tomu pivo pil.
Tam by ses povídaj jak prase v žitě měl,
Já nechci před nikym sednout si na prdel.

Já nejsem z USA, já nejsem z USA, já vážně nejsem z USA... a snad se proto na mě nezloběj.

the "official" icons are not 28x14 for either war3 product

Or... just shrink the ones on the official site. For instance, is 55 by 38 pixels. All you have to do is shrink it to 20x14 , which is the correct ratio, then add another 8 pixels of black space to the right, and if you want, put the level number there. it's easy.

But that's terrible quality and would take an extraordinary amount of time (there's like 60 icons).  blizzard does have "official" small icons which are 28x18, that are used on pages like ladder rankings

I downloaded all of these and created a bnet icon file several years ago: http://www.valhallalegends.com/spht/files/icons.zip

In Sphtbotv3, to preserve quality, all the legacy icons remain 28x14, whereas war3 icons are 26x18

How would I open those files? I am guessing since they are bigger then the normal icons that is why IconViewer can't open the file.

IconViewer can't read the icons-war3.bni because it is actually an MPQ not a bni file

Alendar

Well, in the past I tried to open it using an MPQ viewer and it told me it is an invalid file. Do I need a list file for the MPQ viewer or how would I go about opening the file?

What i linked to are not mpq files, they are regular icon files.  the reason skywing's iconview won't open them is because it refuses to work with any icon files that battle.snp would refuse to load or crash on

In this case, it doesn't like the dimensions used, so i recommend you use another program for reading the icons or hack iconview to accept any dimensions.  in any case, why would you be trying to open them in iconview anyway?  i posted them so that your bot can use them without having to hassle with anything.  if your bot doesn't support reading battle.net icon files, then download them all from the batte.net website and include them in your exe as bitmaps or however you kids are doing things...andy don't tell me how long it took you to download all those pictures, resize them, and add borders.  please tell me someone paid you to do it
