So, try to understand my English.

Making an icon is very simple. These may seem to be very much steps, but I'm writing everything you must do... Every single step.

1. Start in Google. Type: How to make icon of ball? Polandball Wiki.

2. Click on the first site and you'll be on this Wiki, but on a different page.

3. You'll see a blank icon in the first reply. Save this on your computer.

4. I'd recommend you to use https://www.piskelapp.com for the next step.

When using that site:

5. First click on "Create Sprite".

6. Then go to the right and click on "Import" and choose "Browse Images".

7. Select the blank icon file and click Import when the page asks you about the size.

8. The page will say "This will replace your current animation, are you sure you want to continue?". Click "Ok".

9. Now you can edit the colors by choosing them in the left corner.

10. When your icon is finished, go to the right again, but choose "Export" this time.

11. Choose to save it as a "PNG" (under the "Resolution" options) and click the "Download" buttom under "Spritesheet file export".

12. Now be carefull, that you name the file like this: First type the name of the place of which the icon is (for example: "Nieuwegein", not "Nieuwegeinball") then typ "-icon" (for example: "Nieuwegein-icon").

13. After that, choose to add an image on this Wiki and choose the file.

14. Now you can add the icon by typing {I|name} (for example "{I|Nieuwegein}").

!!!: Use { and } twice in succession. I didn't do that now, because otherwise, the page would automatically change my text into files and icons.

For most icons, the name is just that of the place. For example: "Nieuwegein", "Netherlands", "Germany". Without "ball". I made a few mistakes at the beginning, so I added "ball" after the name of the place, but that doesn't apply for (I think) all of the other icons.

If your question was just how to add an icon that already exists on a page, only look at step 14 (last step). But following these steps, you can try to make your own icons.

If you still have a question, go ahead and ask, buddy! :)
