How to change Icons? - eureka - 08-17-2014
I'm wanting to update my Icon for Meta Knight for Kirby: Squeak Squad. Problem is, I don't know how to change the Icon once it's been accepted. I don't want to put this in the Errors Section, as I guess It isn't an error. Anybody know how to change their icons.
Peace.

A revision system is in the works, where people can submit revisions of sheets and icons, which will be approved/rejected by staff, just like submissions. Until then though, you can just get a member of staff to do it for you.
Putting it in the Errors thread is perfectly fine, that's what most people do. You can also PM a staff member if you prefer.

Hm, I might as well wait until that happens. Can't wait!!!!
Peace.

You're certainly welcome to wait (and we would of course welcome any uploads from users in the process of testing the system) but I don't currently have an ETA on when that feature will be available so if you think it's important enough to change quickly, you may want to take puggsoy up on his offer and post it or PM one of us to replace it for you now. Otherwise, keep an eye out - there will be an announcement once the revision system goes live.

Well then, here's the Icon.

That's actually not a very good icon for the sheet. As it says on the wiki, "the icon should give a quick idea of the content of the sheet, and not contain any sprites not present in the sheet". This usually means one frame of the sprite (and maybe multiple sprites if the sheet contains more than one character), with transparency. Screenshots are only used as game icons.
Besides, the current icon looks fine:
