Icons for Ocarina & Wind Waker buttons
I've been thinking about adding images of A,C-buttons and the four Windwaker directions as images, so the button combinations look much better. Is this possible without too much effort? I am not really a wiki-expert, so if anybody can shed some light on the situation that would be nice.--Iron Knuckle 09:35, 12 February 2006 (EST)
Do you have good images of them? I have some extracted from TWW, but they're mono-crome (black outline with white or clear color), which some might not prefer. We do have ◀, etc., but if you get the go to add the buttons, there can be templates, so that {{c up}} shows the image for the C-Up button. --Lesoria 12:47, 12 February 2006 (EST)
They do not necessarily be from the actual game, but a yellow button with triangle looks better than ◀ IMO. I can try to get some good button images. I'll put up a test image here if that is okay with you.--Iron Knuckle 14:28, 12 February 2006 (EST)
It turns out that I don't have the images I thought I have. What I have are A, B, the D-pad, and the C-analog, but those don't look as good what you're proposing.
Whatever you come up with, it'll be easy to use thanks to templates =) --Lesoria 14:40, 12 February 2006 (EST)
One thing to consider is how it would look used on a page. Which size would it appear? 16px? 20px? Does it look good at this size?
I have a pet peeve preference of PNG over GIF, because GIF limits the colors you can use. I'm not sure if that's hurting this icon, because I don't know the original source, so I can't comment on that.
I tend to be extremely critical over the tiniest things with small icons, so don't take anything personally, and I'm trying to not be too critical here.
