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).
Guidlines for Uploading and Naming Icons
- File name MUST be in the form "item-icon-xxxxxx.png" where xxxxxx is a label of your choice.
- Use a short generic label for generic and common icons. Eg. 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.
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
}}
