Meaning of topic icons
Since I just had an exchange with localghost about changing a topic icon in one of my posts, I thought it would be good if you administrators post an announcement containing a key to their meanings so that we users are provided with a standard set of signals.
Only this seems to be an obvious one, indicating SOLVED status.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Re: Meaning of topic icons
Sorry for the belated reply. It has been a busy week. This idea sounds good to me. I will give thought to it and prepare some kind of short guide about meaning and possible usage of those icons.

Right, I guess I should have placed this topic on Comments & Wishes?

Bump! Two years have elapsed since then. Where have you placed this short guide? I'd like to take a look. Thank you!localghost wrote:Sorry for the belated reply. It has been a busy week.

Re: Meaning of topic icons
In the meantime another thought: if you would likt to have further or different icons, let me know. If you would prepare small images for the icons, in the same size, I could add them, and replace some.
The existing topic icons are standard icons of the forum software, I would be glad to implement new icons indicating TeX related topics, as symbols for the content. Ideas: a LyX icon, an error icon, a generic editor icon, a MiKTeX or TeX Live icon ... we have categories and especially TeX, but icons could be a nice visual addition. I'm just not good at drawing, but would implement suggestions with images quickly.
