Proposal: Public Icons

passed 12-0.—Yoda

Adminned at 05 Jul 2011 10:43:45 UTC

If the Proposal titled “Iconoclasty” failed, this Proposal does nothing.

In the rule “Icons”, replace

If a Gladiator has no Icon, that Gladiator may upload a valid Icon to the wiki, with a valid filename of his choosing which is not already used by another Icon, and add it to the “Key” section of the Arena wiki page. This becomes that Gladiator’s Icon.

with

Any Gladiator may upload a valid Icon to the wiki, with a valid filename of his choosing which is not already used by another Icon, and add it to the “Key” section of the Arena wiki page.  If a Gladiator has no Icon, he may select any valid, unassigned Icon on the wiki, and assign it to himself. This becomes that Gladiator’s Icon.

This allows players to upload icons for each other.  Otherwise, players would need to download uploaded icons and re-upload them in order to use them legally.

for Although since “assigned” arguably only means “assigned to a Gladiator”, this will let people legally select other, pre-existing game icons as their avatar. But we can fix that later.

Kevan: I don’t see anything wrong with that as long as it fits the image size criteria.

A Gladiator selecting IconEmpty.png (the “empty square” Icon) as his avatar would be problematic.

Kevan: True.  Although like you said, that can easily be patched because only one player can legally do that.
