Changes

In order to provide more utility for using Icons and graphics as interface elements in this wiki, we've installed I formerly used the [[mw:Extension:Icon|Icon Extension]] This creates a new "parser function" which simply means that the syntax for using graphics is easierbefore this functionality was included in newer versions of MediaWiki. == Usage Installing Icons ==In order to get the Oxygen icons into this mediawiki system, I installed the icon set (well actually I think it came as a dependency with some kde4 application) which provides the compressed svg files. Then I copied the compressed files to a temporary location where I could decompress them and import them. Using the import tool provided by mediawiki, I batch imported the ~800 images. I didn't categorize them, which had I known about categorizing images I would have done first, rather than later. If you want to categorize your images on import, just add the category to the comment.<presource lang="bash"> find /usr/lib/kde4/share/icons/oxygen/scalable/ -name '*svgz' -exec cp {} /tmp/ \;gunzip --suffix=svgz /tmp/*svgzfor i in /tmp/*\.; do mv $i ${#icon: image title | image alt text | image width | page to link to }i}svg; done;<cd phase3/pre>maintenance* Only php importImages.php --extensions=svg --user=Freephile --comment='Get the '''image title''' argument is required whole set at http://www.oxygen- the rest are optionalicons.org' /tmp/<pre/source> {{#icon== Creating Favicons and Application Icons ==You can use [[Inkscape]] as a tool to create your web and application icons. Resources:* [[wp:Favicon]]* http: Info//www.png|Info}} will display the Infocreativebloq.png icon in it's default sizecom/illustrator/create-perfect-favicon-12112760 {{#icon* http: Info//androidcookbook.com/Recipe.png|Info|24}} will display seam?recipeId=2549 == Emoji ==See the Info.png icon with a width list of 24px {{#iconofficial emoji at the Unicode Consortium website https: Info//www.unicode.png|Info|24|Specialorg/emoji/charts/emoji-list.html [[Category:Help}} same as above and clicking on it will link to SpecialImages]][[Category:HelpGraphics]]</pre>[[Category:Logo]]
