Yes but they are not in standard TW format. For example, core icons have height and width 22pt and presumably the user will want it tagged etc. It is also a good opportunity if we can establish a tagging standards for non-core tiddlers for when TWederation eventually arrives.

(Admittedly, I can see an objection from you that "The cog wheel is the ctrlpanel icon and you're confusing the users if you say it is a sun in your astrology wiki" - but that's another matter.) A no small deal is also that the core icons are, presumably, in the optimal format for TW. The problems I mentioned in another thread the other day are in deed problems and makes different icons behave differently. Hence the need for a "converter" as per OP. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
