New icons mostly start as requests by the {{ site.forkawesome.name }} community on GitHub. Want to request a new icon? Here are some things to keep in mind:

  1. Please be nice. {{ site.forkawesome.name }} is a happy place.
  2. Please search to see if your icon request already exists. If a request is found, please add a 👍 reaction to that one.
  3. Please make requests for single icons, unless you are requesting a couple of strictly related icons (e.g., thumbs-up/thumbs-down).
  4. Please and thank you if you include the following:
    • Title your new issue Icon request: icon-name (e.g., Icon request: icon-car).
    • Include a few use cases for your requested icon. How do you plan on using it?
    • Attach a single color image or two that represent the idea you're going for.
  5. Request concrete objects: it's harder to make an icon to represent happiness, it's easier to make a smiley face.
