# Changing a board icon and cover


You can customize an icon and cover for each board. The icon appears next to the board name and helps you find the board in the list. The cover is displayed at the top of the board page and defines its visual style.

The board icon and cover can be selected by the Tracker administrator, the board owner, and users with **Full access**.

## Selecting a board icon {#icon}

1. Open the board.

1. To the left of the board name, click its icon.

1. Choose how the new icon will look:

    {% list tabs %}

    - Emoji

        To have Tracker pick an icon for you, click the ![](../_assets/svg/random.svg)</svg> button at the bottom of the window until you see a combination you like. If you already have an icon in mind, create it:

        1. Find the needed emoji in the list. They are grouped by topic, for example **Smileys and people**, **Symbols**. You can also search for an emoji by its name: enter a general word, for example `smile`, and matching options will stay in the list.

        1. Below, select the background color.

        To restore the default icon, click **Reset**.
