# TWiki Documentation Graphics This is one way to create a library of common icons, accessible through user-defined [[TWikiVariables]] set in [[WebPreferences]], or in [[TWikiPreferences]] for site-wide use. There are other approaches as well: the TWiki:Plugins/TopicVarsPlugin lets you set variables in any topic, not just in [[WebPreferences]], for use in the same. The TWiki:Plugins/SmiliesPlugin, using a different short hand than `%VARIABLES%`, may be worth checking out for extended use. In this example, %TOPIC% - this topic - acts as the icon library. Graphics are uploaded and displayed. Then, the paths are set in [[TWiki.TWikiPreferences#DocGraphics|TWiki/TWikiPreferences#DocGraphics]] for site-wide access. You can also create individual library pages in each web. And you don't have to restrict yourself to graphics: Preferences Variables can include text and links to any type of file. - help.gif Help - tip.gif Tip / Idea - warning.gif Warning / Important - pencil.gif Refactor / Edit - choice-yes.gif Done - updated.gif Updated - new.gif New - starred.gif Highlight (positive) - arrowright.gif Moved to... - viewtopic.gif View topic - edittopic.gif Edit topic - newtopic.gif New topic - searchtopic.gif Search topic - printtopic.gif Print topic - attachfile.gif Attach file - home.gif Home - changes.gif Changes - notify.gif Notify -- [[PeterThoeny]] - 17 Jan 2003
