Re: Changing icons of the modules Current Weather and Weather Forecast

I was reading this old post and when replying it suggested I create a new one.

I am playing with the default weather and forecast modules.

I got my hands on some really nice animated weather icons but they are in .mov format.
I have attempted to convert them to something like .gif but the quality output is terrible.

In the original post @trividar was seeking an answer, not sure if they got it?

Any advice?

Thanks @sdetweil
I actually managed to just store the icons in the root dir for the module and change the .js for the module to look for the new file name.

Now the issue I have is that .mov doesnt seem to work for icons. ( I tested with other file types to confirm the “change” worked, do now I know its just a file type issue)

Hello,
I am using the default calendar module which comes with the Magic Mirror.
Thus far I am pretty happy with how it works.

I have manged to get several ics files sync’d in and colour coded.

However, I would like to change the icon for on of the calendars to one not available on http://fontawesome.io/icons/

Ideally, it would be a file I could store locally on the RaspberryPi
This is what the config.js file looks like currently for the calendar:

{
			module: "calendar",
			header: "Gavin's Calendars",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
				colored: true,
				coloredSymbolOnly: true,
				calendars: [
					{
						symbol: "calendar-check",
						dateFormat: "Do MMM",
						color: "#E51B00",
						url: "calendarlink01.ics"},
					{
						symbol: "calendar-alt",
						dateFormat: "Do MMM",
						color: "#1073BC",
						url: "calendarlink02.ics"},
					{
						symbol: "calendar-plus",
						dateFormat: "Do MMM",
						color: "#27A86C",
						url: "calendarlink03.ics"}
				]
			}
		},

If I understand correctly, this will require some kind of custom CSS, would appreciate any guidance provided.
