I Found The Harpy! (Do I win a prize?)
So, once I discovered that the gargoyle we've all been seeing is actually the new imp, I went back to IGN.com and looked at some of the other pics? Guess what I found?
First, there are harpies in the game! But they obviously don't have pics for them yet (it is still pre-beta). But I found the square that represents them in the maps!
See the Hero to the right of the town? Look about an inch below him. It's right under the red dragon portal. See that red square there? What does it say? Harpy!
They obviously didn't have a pic ready for them yet, so they put a red square with their name on it to represent them!
Harpy's are in the game!
I also saw another pic that had some wierd creatures in a Hero's army. In the bottom right you can see the army. The bone dragons, devils, skeletons, and mummies are obvious. But what are the other 2?
The one on the bottom right looks like a knight or something? A Dread Knight? It can't be a hero, because there are 5 of them.
The one in the middle top looks like a red skeleton with a hood. What the heck is that thing? I'd guess a Lich, but lichs are a hero type and have a different pic. I don't know what that is!
NOTE: I hope this is the image I am talking about. Once in a while I can't see jpg's on this damn computer.

I think that thing that looks like a knight may be a hero because it looks EXACTLY like one of the pics in the Heroes section.

Squeezing the last little drop of information from the screenshots
Here's something I just noticed that hasn't been commented on. Take a look at the hero in the first screenshot Paul posted here. There he sits, tall and proud at the gate of his Asylum .... riding a Nightmare!! Now that's what I call a nice little detail.
And Paul, for finding the Harpy, you win an Unofficial UnkaHaakon Unprize, redeemable for one cheap American beer sometime.

Maybe that's really a demon. Next to it there is something like a skeleton. I have no idea about the othes.
...What prize do you want?

UnkaHaakon, did you know that Paul is in Oregon?
If I where him I call you out on that prize. What's a 4 hour car ride between friends anyway?
Paul's in school so he probably drinks Schmidt's.

Offtopic by a bunch LOL
Yep, I'm aware he's in Oregon ..that's why I made the Unprize something I could afford to have collected on LOL.
I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid. Paul, seriously, if you're going to head up to the Puget Sound area sometiime, let me know via email. Your Unprize is waiting.

About time I got my prize!
Hey, thanks for the offer. But I'm in California right now (I might of IMed you that) and am about 8 hours from Eugene. I also smell like horses. Plus, classes for U of O start in 2 weeks and my friends are trying to get me to join a frat house. So I won't be able to take up your un-prize for a while.
But if I am ever heading up to Puget I'll definently give you a call. I've never been known to turn down a free drink!

The Hero type.
You can see that a hero type is the one that has a red and a blue line under his face. It's probably HP and SP.

Sarumon . . .
It's nice that you know how to post pics, but we don't need to see every pic that you have found.  Atleast take into consideration how long they take to load, and that we have actually seen most of them!
I'm starting to think that those creatures are:
Fairy Dragon - Hero - Zombie
Devil - Skeleton - Hero
First, the Dragon pic has no bones in it. If it is the Bone Dragon, he suddenly grew flesh. Than again, if that is the Fairy Dragon, it is butt ugly.
I just realized that the two new creatues I think I saw in other places as Heroes. I don't know why they have numbers here.
I'm still not sure if the Zombie will be called a Zombie or Mummy, but I'm pretty sure that is it. Almost makes me miss the Mutant Zombies.

LordPaul
You may be correct about the creature on the top left is not a Bone Dragon (it looks like it has skin), but I don't think it's a Fairy Dragon. The creature on the icon looks much too dull for that. A Fairy Dragon ougth to be colourful.
I don't recall seeing the top-middle creature as a hero on any pics. The fact that a creature appears on the icons above (like this creature does) doesn't mean it is a Hero. This creature looks mean enough to be a devil, I'd be disappointed to find out that the creature on the bottom-left is a Devil. It just doesn't have the appearance and feeling that a fourth level creature ought to have. A level 2 grunt "demon" would be Ok, but if it's a devil it looks much too meek for my taste.
I don't see why you believe the creature on the bottom-right is a Hero, it's looking like a dragon-like creature. It may very well be the fairy-dragon (at least it's colourful enough) or possibly a creature which we don't know the name of. On the other hand, I don't believe it's a Venom Spawn any more. (There was an icon for that creature that matched better).

Double Take
You know, that creature on the bottom right looks like the Bone Dragon. Look at it hard. That isn't a helmut, it's his head and giant mouth! You're right, I saw him as an icon, and was sure he was a hero.
The top left could be an Imp, but it doesn't look right. Some new dragon. One of the 8 or so neutral creatures we still don't know about? Hmmmm.
The bottome left could be the devil, but I agree that I would be much happier if it wasn't. It looks to weak. The middle top could be the devil, but it would definently be a whole new look. I'd have to see the whole thing to determine if I would like it's looks or not.
The other two are obviously the skeleton and zombie/mummy.
