Forum:Search icons!



This is where we will manage all search icons. Recently, with the help of GHe, a fellow Wikian and Janitor, we received some new functions throughout the site. Included were new summaries when posting a message and the like. Another one is this: Search icons! Sure, before we said that making search icons would be too biased or whatever, but here is how it's going to work.

If you want to make a search icon, go ahead, and post it here. Since I am taking responsibility for this "project", I will take care of posting the search icons up when ready to appear next to the search bar and such. I will judge if a crop is bad or if an image is bad and if that happens, the search icon will have to be remade. I personally will not make anyone search icons (unless I really feel like it) because I don't have that kind of time. But I will upload others' icons.

All search icons must be 127 px in width and 56 px in height. They must also follow this format:



So soon I will start creating my own search icons. Everyone feel free to send in their own, they have a good chance of approval as long as text isn't too small, crop isn't bad, and image is nicely and cleanly resized. --Squishy Vic discussion archives 03:24, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Nice. Are the search icons going to consist of fanon creations on this Wiki and canon stuff? And how do you make one? Just want those two tidbits answered. Thanks. Unit 8311 18:10, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Of course, this is Star Wars Fanon, so definitely all fanon creations can be considered. That's what I was aiming for. And you basically just take that image of Vader's search icon for a template and make it in Adobe Illustrator or photoshop or something of the sort. If you can't make one... sorry I myself have not had a chance to try yet, that Vader icon was taken (with due credit) from Wookieepedia. I'm actually going to try right now while I have the tools here in class to do so. --Squishy Vic  discussion archives 18:19, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Do we just upload them onto this page, as an entry? Darth tom Chit 'n' Chat 19:40, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
