Guild Wars Wiki talk:Projects/Inventory icons/Bows

I think for bow skins with multiple names, we should be going  bow for the consolidated icon as we only capitalize items that exist in game. I may have made mistakes on some other pages by doing the opposite. - B e X   14:50, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * ok, then i should re-re-upload Image:Skull bow.png. But what to do with all the bow skins that use the same icon for flat hron and longbow // recurvebow and shortbow? i suggested to only upload the longbow / shortbow icon (but with capital letter, as the so named bow skin does exist). Well, maybe we could also find a better naming, but i couldn't imagine one yet. —Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 17:03, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * btw, there seem to be several Naga Bows: Naga Bow, Naga Shortbow, Naga Longbow. maybe there is also every bow type available...when looking at the pictures, it seems that the shortbow uses a diffrent skin than the longbow. —Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 17:25, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * My brain is too tired to think atm. :( - B e X  [[Image:User BeXoR sig.gif|iawtc]] 19:06, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I've added a lot of bows to the 'shared icon' section, because the page was looking horrid. I hope I used the right name for them, but I suppose some more ought to be added.
 * On a side note, a lot of green weapons are using the same inventory icons, should their names be added to the 'shared icons' section too? Moreover, some greens use entirely differently icons (coloring and such), like Chkkr's Flatbow. So I suppose a few more icons are in need of extraction.
 * Do we want to display the shared icons twice, as in on the top of the page and in the list of shared icons?-- Arduinna [[Image:User_Arduinna_Companionship.jpg|15px|talk]] 09:32, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Should shared icons include icons shared with greens? Jennalee 09:43, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Skull bows
I believe there are two skins for these, like a lot of the others. The Flatbow/Longbow/Hornbow use a double-skull which has two holes for each bow arm, the Recurve and Shortbows use a single skull with only one hole on each arm. This probably means they have different icons. Jennalee 09:21, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, pulled out both icons and compared, they are very slightly different. You can see it best if you put them side by side, zoomed in. Jennalee 02:53, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
