## Description

Simply put, Content Icons is a tool that an author can use to assign “icons” or “
images” to individual posts…
 Similar in idea to having Topic Icons. However, biggest
difference being, topic icons only display icons that are related or associated 
with the category (Hence Topic Icon). Content Icons allows author to assign icons
such that a reader can readily make an association with the post.

### Short Description

Simply put, Content Icons is a tool that an author can use to assign “icons” or “
images” to individual posts.

### Where Can I get the Icons From?

I got all my icons from [Icon Archive](http://www.iconarchive.com/) That’s just 
one place… I am sure there are plenty more
 sites where you can get free icons/images
for use with this plugin. (remember, the file type has to be either jpg, jpeg, gif,
or png)

### I wanna learn how to develop plugins!!

Glad to know, that you would like to learn! You can actually go to the following
site: [GuidesForge]
 (http://www.guidesforge.com/how-to/wordpress-how-to/developing-
your-first-wordpress-plugin-for-wordpress-27-a-step-by-step-guide) As the title 
link suggests, for this particular guide I have detailed out this very plugin. I
go through each step and show exactly how one should go about developing plugins
for WordPress 2.7.

### Future Work

     So,
    if someone can help with translations, that would be great!
