Talk:Series symbol
Black vs. White
Considering that this wiki's background is white, I feel that images with the same color background would look better than the current black pictures (assuming the symbol is clearly visible), as in this example. It's not a make-or-break change, but the page would certainly look better in this format, if anyone would be up to the challenge. Zixor (talk) 00:49, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
Deletion
Delete Yeah, this seems really trivial to me. I mean, aren't the symbols already on their respective fighter/stage pages? FyreNWater - (Talk • Contributions ) 09:04, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
No Delete It explains where they come from. There are a lot of stupid things on this wiki, so on one where we keep Super Smash Flash and Smashtasm along with pages for every sticker, I think this would slide. Heck, here we can make a page for Sniper Wolf just because she's from MG. XXXXX Talk to me OR ELSE! 16:54, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
No Delete. -I agree. Simply because the information can also be found in other places, doesn't mean a concise reference isn't also useful and welcome. Zixor (talk) 20:45, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
No Delete Sorry guys who want this page deleted. Hey, Smashtasm wasn't deleted and neither are Smasher pages or fan games. All I can say is that people seem to really like this page, and that it shouldn't be deleted.Some Guy who did this edit (Just talk, you know how.) 23:29, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Smash Bros. Logo
Does anyone know the origins of the Smash Bros. logo? I had read somewhere that the circle represented the sun, and the two lines were from a window pane.
-Additionally, if anyone knows anything about any of the symbols currently without sufficient descriptions, I would ask that they add the info, or discuss it here. Zixor (talk) 04:38, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
What doesn't belong
The Animal Crossing, DS, Electroplankton, and Smash Bros. (at least) icons do not represent any fighters. They are not really series symbols, are they? If so, what qualifies them, and where are they used in the game? Zixor (talk) 23:45, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Exactly Where are each of these symbols used in the game? If they are indeed relevant, then the introduction must be modified. Zixor (talk) 15:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- Go to stage select. Under the photo on the left will be three things: the source game, the stage's name AND THESE SYMBOLS. That includes the previously mentioned symbols. 5280s (talk · contributions) 19:46, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
GIF vs. SVG
Wouldn't it be nice if someone could convert all of these icons into scalable vector graphics? (I know the Electroplankton icon a PNG, but it's still pretty small.) Within the game, these series symbols appear as if they could be magnified and enlarged tenfold with no loss of quality. For example, when a match ends, the winning character's symbol appears big on the screen before shrinking slightly and going behind things. Wikipedia would tag these images with a "BadGIF" template. If I had Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, you can bet I'd do this. What does anyone else think? Dogman15 (talk) 07:20, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
- Well, in the game they're probably just really high resolution (like 1024x1024 or something). But yeah, making the icons into .svg's might be a good idea. I'll get on that -
I'll probably use a transparent background with a medium gray symbol, so it could be placed into white and black environments easily. Toomai Glittershine

- It becomes invisible on black backgrounds, but we only use the black-background icons for contrast, which would probably be unneeded with this style. Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy 15:13, November 17, 2009 (UTC)
- No responses? I'll just go ahead then. Toomai Glittershine The Table Designer 19:56, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
- Righto, the new symbols are up. Use 'em. Toomai Glittershine The Stats Guy 01:00, November 27, 2009 (UTC)
Since this wiki has problems with some .svgs, I've changed all .svgs to .pngs to ensure everything works properly. Toomai Glittershine 12:56, 30 October 2010 (EDT)
Subspace Army, Special Stages etc.
Any specific reason for which they're not on there. Smiddle 君怒る? 17:39, 29 July 2011 (EDT)
- Their symbol is the Smash bros symbol, i guess. BlindcoloursFile:EarthboundSymbol.pngYOUR WINNER 17:41, 29 July 2011 (EDT)
- They don't really represent a series, so that's probably why. Add them if you think you can provide the same kind of info though. Toomai Glittershine The Bold 17:43, 29 July 2011 (EDT)
