Description

Create a row in the NPC Show table. This will help with adding icons and maintaining consistency across many tables. As better extensions are installed in the wiki, a lot of things also can be automated (ie. picking the correct icon based on the item name).

'PNG file format was chosen because it gives the flexibility with one file extension:

  • Save as PNG 8 bit (256 color) for smaller file size and sharp image, for most icons.
  • Save as PNG 24 bit if the icon somehow needs more colour.

Examples

The typical usage is to use this in a new article, save, and THEN upload the image by clicking the image link (which then is pre-set with the article name):

{{vendor table row
 | item = Basic Sword
 | cost = 75 gold
}}
