  11. New icons mostly start as requests by the

  13. icon? Here are some things to keep in mind:

  15. <ol>
  16. <li>Please be nice. Font Awesome is a happy place.</li>
  17. <li>Please <a href="{{ site.font_awesome.github.url }}/search?type=Issues">search</a> to see if your icon request already exists.</li>
  18. <li>
  19. Please and thank you if you include the following:
  20. <ul>
  21. <li>
  22. Title your <a href="{{ site.font_awesome.github.url }}/issues/new?title=Icon%20Request:%20icon-name">new issue</a>
  23. <code>Icon request: icon-name</code>.
  24. </li>
  25. <li>Include a few use cases for your requested icon. How do you plan on using it?</li>
  26. <li>Attach a single color image or two that represent the idea you're going for.</li>
  27. </ul>
  28. </li>

  30. Concrete objects make good icons, since abstract concepts are, well, abstract. It's harder to make an icon
  31. to represent happiness. It's easier to make a smiley face. <i class="icon-smile"></i>
