Forum:Changing The Store Logo to World Logo

Hey there everyone! Today I had an idea that we could change the logo, instead of having the store logo e.g. Alana Kahale is a sim from Sunlit Tides, she could have the Sunlit Tides logo above her head instead of the, The Sims 3 Store logo, what do you all think? I would like to get some input from you guys. 16:14, August 29, 2013 (UTC)

I agree, it would be logical and it would make a clear difference between sims from the different store worlds. Tom stalk investigate
 * Also agree. Using the current logo makes it seem like you have to buy the Sim from the store, which may or may not be true but which is definitely open to confusion. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 17:27, August 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * I've tried it several times before. It didn't work because the icon and logo in the bio is handled by the  parameter, hence the default store icon / logo. I believe this can be tweaked, though. I've just never tried tweaking it any further.  Nikel   Talk  –  Vote!  17:55, August 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * Neighborhood is also a parameter in that template. The trick would be making the template able to recognize when a neighborhood is part of a game, versus if a neighborhood is a stand-alone. I'll see what I can do. --  LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 23:00, August 29, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm finally able to make the logo show up with the corresponding store world if the  parameter is The Sims 3 Store (see Alana Kahale). However, if I leave the   parameter blank, it will show File:No official image.png instead of File:The Sims 3 Logo.png (which is more proper). I know there's little chance a Sim article will have a missing information like that here, and Dragon Valley could be the last store world for The Sims 3, but it means we have to list every world in Vglogo, which is impractical for code reusability. It still works anyway. It's just... not perfect.


 * I haven't taken care of the icon, however.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:59, August 30, 2013 (UTC)

I could help add them to pages if they need to be added...


 * I've seen now that they don't need doing... 09:49, August 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * Can you tell me how you did this? I'd like to add this on the Dutch Sims wiki as well.  Tiezel     (talk)     curious?   19:41, September 14, 2013 (UTC)


 * I tweaked the following templates for it to work: Sim, GetGameImage, Vglogo. I made GetGameImage to receive two parameters from Sim (previously only one). The first parameter is the usual game, and the second parameter is the neighborhood. If the game is The Sims 3 Store, then Vglogo would seek the neighborhood logo instead of the game logo. The default input for the 2nd parameter is The Sims 3 Store, because GetGameImage is also used in NeighborhoodInfobox which doesn't use the second parameter.
