What's in the file is an icon atlas (a file w/ all the icons) for each size that the icon might be required to be and the wonder splash screen for Solomon's temple.
An exmaple however, of how to draw the icon in terms of what size the image should be can be found here[www.civfanatics.com] (http://www.civfanatics.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=3459&c=37).
Also note, that the icon is drawn as a circle that does not take up the entire image, if you could do it like that it'd be really help me when I put the icon into the atlas.
Every new item requires a single new icon. The following is just a list of every icon needed (as a side note this list is the same as the list of items added).

Finnaly, a new Splash Screen for Solomon's court would be accepted but is probalby not needed as badly as new icons (cuz the icons I did are horrendous).
regarding the link: it looks like I need a soft black outer bevel (offset to left and top), with a white background (which you want me to instead use an alpha background). Yeah let me see what I can do :) At first I'll just do some individually and see how it goes..
One thing — can you create a little google spreadsheet or something that maps the technology or thing that I am creating an icon for, to its location in the current atlas?
off the top of my head I get:
(dear?) Fishing Mysticism? Elder Tent? Alphabet ... it is kinda hard to glance back and forth and always search to know what I am looking at. And you are more familiar with the art :)
I want to make sure that you know that you have complete creative control over how you draw whatever icons you draw (I would ask, however, that they look like Civ 5 icons).
That said, some of the current icons not only are low quality but also the way they’re actually drawn I don’t like either so in that light I’ve made a chart to describe which icons I like how they’re drawn and which ones I do not. Also if you’d like I could put together a kind of an idea board for what could actually be drawn in each icon if you think it’d be useful.
Here's one for fishing[imgur.com] too, the other I was working on today/yesterday. It is honestly too cartoonish — but it was the best fishing I could think of .. I might come back and try to put together one that is photograph based and better reflects primitive fishing.
PS> I don't entirely draw these or take the photographs and everything, but I do substantially change them. The mountains in Fishing were all a single flat/solid color blue, for instance.

While those two are fabulous I’m kinda iffy on the oral tradition icon. Not that I don’t like it per se I’m just not sure if I like it as much or if it fits as well as the one’s I already for oral tradition and elder’s tent. The thing that is good about it and that I definitely like is that if I make it the icon for oral tradition that’ll help separate it from the elder’s tent icon a lot better than current.
At any rate using my entire artistic arsenal (copy and pasting, using plugins that do all the work for me and having too much time on my hands) I messed around with the fishing icon a little bit to remove the sign and add kind of a Civ 5 style background. I did decently on the former but not necessarily the latter. So while the icon you did is still better (as it actually represents fishing) if you want you could look at what I did you can do so here.
I tried to get the Civ 5 sunburst effect in the background but idk how well I did. Anyway, a new icon could have the sunburst effect (either what I did or something else) and some ancient–looking fishing boats in the water if wanted the icon to be less cartoony without completely redoing it. However, like I said I do really like the one you already did and would be more than happy using that.
