As of writing, I recommend to watch this page to notice more easily when other people add new icons.
Uploading New Icons
- In-game icons are 32x32 pixels exact replica from NPC's shop or your inventory. Unequip items to remove the red border!
- File name MUST be in the form
Item-icon-xxxxxx.png
. For example Item-icon-amethyst.png
.
- Because when you hover over an icon, it will display the name of the picture's file, items with more than 1 word get mushed together (ex. crabmeat.png -> shows up as Crabmeat when hovered over). A way to fix this is to give it a label tag: "icon|crabmeat|label=Crab Meat" -> Crab Meat NOT Crabmeat
- Use a short generic label for generic and common icons. For example:
- Use "book" not "Fire Magic: Introductory Research" since most skill teaching books have the same book icon.
- Use "seeds" not "dahliaseeds" since most seeds in-game have the same icon.
- (Possibly a BAD habit to do because item icons may change. I'd just create a new file with the exact name of the item. In the above example, Dahlia Seeds have a different icon than Bluebell Seeds; probably changed since the above was written, which is probably why every item should have its own file.
- In alpha there are no icons that need more than 256 color. Save the SMALLEST file size , 8 bit PNG.
- Please document any new icons below, otherwise kittens die!!
Usage Notes
Using an icon
Always use the template if possible instead of the mediawiki image code!
{{icon|<icon name>}}
Icon size
Use the size parameter, for example here is Firstaid a 16x16 First Aid Kit.
{{icon|<icon name>|size=16px}}
