+RakeInTheCache Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I'm looking for an icon for the Frank Loyd Wright category. Anyone interested in taking a stab at a Prairie style house (with horizontal lines and other Wright traits)? Quote Link to comment
razalas Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 As we have a new category, here are two alternatives for the icon. The first has the typical knife and fork of WM icons and the second the word food. What do you think? 2 Quote Link to comment

+SMacB Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Hi All. Wooden Church Artefacts needs a new icon. I made the one attached. Admittedly, shamelessly stolen from Stone Church Artefacts, but made to look wooden. Regards Steve Quote Link to comment

+PISA-caching Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I like 2 and 3, but my favorite is #2, next is #3 (but it slightly looks as a residential building to me). #4 doesn't represent "building" enough and the cross on #1 looks as if it was "flying between the building and the ground" - not enough pixels available for the cross) Quote Link to comment

+bluesnote Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Been a few weeks since the WWI Sites category has been live. Think it's time for a new category icon, besides the default one. Similar to the WWII sites, I feel the category should have the same icon. But instead of "WW II" it should have "WWI" at the top of the monument. I also feel the WWI memorials/monuments category should also have this fix, from the default memorial/monument icon to differentiate it from others. Thoughts? Comments? Let's hear them!

+T0SHEA Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 If I recall correctly, there was a thread where new category grid icons were created, I was unable to find it. Funny thing happened today, in one of the categories I created, I declined a waymark. I received a kind note from the submitter that the submission I declined was the same model as the image used for the category grid icon. The category was approved about 5 years ago, and I NEVER noticed. I was not only surprised, I was rather amused that the submitter was so observant. Can an existing grid icon be changed? Quote Link to comment
+bluesnote Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Only time I've seen them change was some time after a new category gets approved. When the generic icon becomes, in lack of better words, the more specific icon. I remember a few years ago, most of the historical marker categories got an overhaul in their icons and that occurred several years after these categories were approved. But other than this, I can't think of other times they were updated. But I would assume it's possible. Quote Link to comment
+FamilieFrohne Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 10 hours ago, T0SHEA said: Can an existing grid icon be changed? The category icons are small gif images, stored on the webserver of Waymarking.com. Probably there has also some entry in the database to be changed to point to the new image. Assuming this as given, an exchange / extra image of the icon should be fairly easy for an administrator - perhaps he also has some administrative pages that will help to reduce the amount of work needed .... So the answer to the question would be yes - but I am pretty sure that a change of an icon is a thing that happens only once in a year or less ... and that it needs a good reason for an exchange.

+T0SHEA Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Hi, not too sure we are on the same "page". I can change a logo (icon) from the "Group Detail "page", if I am the group leader or have permission to edit the category. As far as I am aware, a new "grid" icon is created and an admin is the only one who can insert it into the "grid" Here is an example of some grid icons: The Grid Quote Link to comment
+FamilieFrohne Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 I am no leader of a gategory, so I can't tell what possibilities are given for an edit of the category. But I think we are talking about the same thing. 7 hours ago, T0SHEA said: I can change a logo (icon) from the "Group Detail "page", if I am the group leader or have permission to edit the category. This would be the box marked wit a "1" in the image below. According to your explanation this one is changeable by you as the leader. 7 hours ago, T0SHEA said: As far as I am aware, a new "grid" icon is created and an admin is the only one who can insert it into the "grid" This would be the box marked with a "2" in the image below. This one can only be changed by the administrators (and that would answer your question "Can an existing grid icon be changed?" from the initial post with yes). I tried to express that in the post above - sorry for my bad writing skills. Quote Link to comment
