Will I can tell you for fact that the skill of the fire staff/water staff/dom staff etc, does not really dye - nor does the raven staff. I would very much like to see at least some change in this. I love to dye my weapons.

most likely all swords/axes/hammer only the handles dye.
i've dyed all my swords/axes pink, and all that changed on them were the handles.
now if the blade went pink.. that would be awesome!

Yeah, it seems to me that most staffs don't dye very well.
Although these aren't on your list...
I dyed my Necro bone staff Silver, and the difference is noticable, even if not by a lot, but when I dyed my cruel staff Purple, it had no noticable effect whatsoever.

Just a note Chaos Axes are can be dyed

Yes, but Chaos Axes dye backwards. I've never dyed a Storm Bow, but given their default color, I would imagine it works via the same mechanism.
Dye it Green, it turns pinkish.
Dye it Black, it turns white... you get the idea.

it's not like you can dye the bow red and have a pretty dark side style stormbow.

)
And when I was a noob, I saw a guy with a shadow shield, and thought it was a dyed skeleton shield, and asked him "wow, how did you do that to your skeleton shield? A black dye?" and the guy said "You gotta mix black + silver, then use it"
... thanks for wasting my 6.5k, you jerk!

If by ascalon razor you mean the collector skin for the longsword, then it only dyes the handle as well, it makes for a color+darkness look.

i dyed a Fellblade recently...and the weird part is that it stopped the animation on it....i dyed it to be Teal, so that it would match my armor and shield....but after i dyed it, the animation disappeared :/

Yes please do tell. I've been wanting to make a jade armor look.

I tried a Smiting rod, and got nothing.

Ascalon razor = Collector's long sword = Rinblade.

Black clouds seem to drift slowly across its blade
oh, and i made an ultimate ss/sv staff of doom out of the desert collector curses staff (as villnars didnt cut it for me), and dyed it silver, makes for a nice metallic look. I also did something with pink and it made a nice deep purple.

The Black Clouds is actually animated shadows.

My holy rod seems to take dye kind of weirdly. I dyed it green and it turned this sickly neon yellowish color. Then I dyed it either red or orange (I think red to match my tats) and it turned a much nicer yellow color.
Sereng Amaranth
Air Wands dye weird also.

You expected someone to run out and spend money on dyes and/or weapons so you can have your questions answered in the manner you desire? I know you probably didn't mean anything by your comment, but how do you expect the community to act after you've said that? 
I've dyed a few weapons but none that are on your list. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
For what it's worth... Straight up purple

Here is a storm bow dyed silver on top and one dyed black on the bottom. All other colors are shades of blue in between them, though with a bule dye there is a slight redish tint to it.

Don't judge to conclusions without facts. I want people that have these items and have dyed them of their own choice that can tell me the information I need. Might I suggest you not jump to conclusions in future. Because you'll dig yourself a hole you crawl out off.

I think you should take your own advice about digging holes. You ask people to give you "the information you need" and then make a snide remark that people aren't helpful enough. Nice.

Once you equip it, you see no difference.
