I love this site, I only have one request: could there be an option to link items to Wowhead instead of WowDB?

Thank you for this nice comment

Regarding links to Wowhead in our guides, this used to be our database of choice. We switched to WowDB for a number of reasons. We had about 100,000 links to Wowhead, but we never had any interaction with them, whatsoever.

Then Curse.com came along and proposed to link our guides on MMO-Champion, to give us the IM contact of their dev team so we can chat with their developers and suggest/discuss new features for WowDB, to grant us API access to their database (in case we need to extract information for some of our tools, such as the completed quests checker or the transmogrification guides).

What we had to do in exchange was to switch our tooltips to WowDB. The database surely is not as mature as Wowhead, but we find the tooltips to be better. Compare Flamestrike (Wowhead) and Flamestrike (WowDB). Which one do you think is the most accurate?

Thank you Icy Veins

I would like to thank the entire team of Icy Veins and the rest of the community for the effort everyone put together to make this site as awesome as it is today.

I have been looking for a site like this ever since I started playing WoW, after giving up on the game at the start of Cataclysm I figured I should give MoP a chance. Your guides have helped me tremendously in both picking a class to play and discovering how to play the classes as well.

I know that once my character reaches level 90 I will continue to use your guides for the different events and raid guides.

I finally have an awesome hobby again and you have helped to get me back on track.

Thanks Icy Veins!
