32x32 pixels, 8 Bit PNG.

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.
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.
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.

-As of writing, I recommend to '''watch''' this page to notice more easily when other people add new icons. In the future we may be able to pick icons in the template based on the item name. We can't do that yet due to lack of proper extensions in the wiki, so it's not as automated as I wish.
