This template inserts a red X inline in the text. It is often used as the opposite of {{Tick}}.

Usage

This template inserts an inline red diagonal cross (X) image, indicating negation (or some other negatory message: rejection, failure, etc.). It is not for use in articles.

The cross image defaults to 20px in size. To change the size, call with a pixel value as an argument, such as:

{{cross|30}}

The |color = or |colour = parameter can be used to change the color of the X:

Warning!

On the Second Life Wiki, for now, only the red (default) X mark is available

color codes				output	notes
red		rd	r		the default
darkred	dkred	drd	dr	20px
orange		or	o	20px
yellow		yel	y	20px
black		blk	k	20px
