I think I broke something
It's bad. -- Antioch 05:24, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
 * LOL! What did you do? Besides redirect your page to mine? --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 05:33, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Guild page translation
Had the translation prepared but had forgotten to upload it. Can we keep the french version with the english one ? Citillara 08:31, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Of course... you can even just make it a separate page if it's a full translation and not just a summary, linked to the French one, just because the majority of the community here at GWW is English speaking (since it is the English language wiki) and the guild pages are to inform the community about your guild. Thanks! --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 08:33, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Quick Question
Hey, how can I create a redirect for a page? I'm asking this because a while ago, I could not get to "Weh no Su" by searching "weh no su", so I posted the problem in the talk page. It was fixed, but still, I thought it would be more convenient for me to do it rather than wait for someone else. Am I allowed to create redirects, or do I have to ask a sysop? Thanks!-- Shew 18:37, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * To create a redirect, simply create the redirect page and put #REDIRECT page you want it to redirect to . So the redirect you asked for would go on a page 'weh no su' and would contain #REDIRECT Weh no Su . You can learn more by visiting Help:Redirect. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 19:52, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you-- Shew 19:57, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * You can create redirects within mainspace if it is a reasonable term someone might use to search for something. Your example where it's a matter of capitalization, or a common misspelling. If someone else feels it's an unnecessary redirect, they may tag it for deletion, and then discussion would have to happen to decide. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 20:01, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Friend
Is it ok if I add you to friends on my userpage? :P  S entry007   23:08, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * P.s Sorry about all the trouble I caused with the "s"; I LOVE it.  S entry007  [[Image:User Sentry007 sig.png|19px]] 23:08, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
 * You can add anyoneyou wish as a friend, and you didn't cause any trouble, I'm sorry it took me so long to get it done. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 04:09, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No, no, don't be sorry. And I really appreciate. Besides, patience is a virtue, eh? Btw, do you think it possible to get the "S" onto my talk page as well?  S entry007  [[Image:User Sentry007 sig.png|19px]] 15:38, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

*Sigh*
Will people like shard ever realize how wrong they are? Dark Morphon 11:07, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No, there is no making them happy. I've come to the conclusion that no matter what ArenaNet does, they will find a way/reason to bitch about it just to hear themselves bitch. I think it makes them feel important. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 11:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree with some points they have, like how the game got worse over the years, but what use is flaming Anet really? I think Anet is doing better recently and I think they might actually be able to improve the game. Dark Morphon 11:15, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I get the feeling you're grouping people like me in with Shard. We bitch because we like GW, but it's in a really bad way because of two years of mismanagement and we don't see it getting better.  He bitches because it makes him feel important. --71.229.253.172 11:18, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * They are too stupid to realize that flaming Anet does not do a thing, it doesn't help, even if they are right on some points. Mini Me  [[Image:User Mini Me sig.png|19px|talk]] 11:22, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Linsey is willing to work with the community, as long as the discussions are done in a respectful way, and in an appropriate place. She has asked for skill feedback to go in the skill feedback area and the discussions to happen there. I think given enough time, they might get over their bitterness if it's proven that their concerns are taken into consideration. They just have to realize they are a very small voice in a big game so not everything is going to be done exactly their way, and they have to live with it, rather than railing against it and hurling insults. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 11:59, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

A few points:


 * 1) I hope you're not assuming right off the bat that Shard (or anyone else) is always wrong.
 * 2) I hope you're also not assuming right off the bat that you're always right for opposing Shard's stupidity.
 * 3) Bitching doesn't do a thing. It's not like we don't know this. We're not stupid, unlike what Mini Me seems to think. It does, however, let out a good amount of stress.
 * 4) We don't like to hear ourselves bitch. I'd be very happy if the game were actually fixed so that I would never have a reason to bitch about it again.
 * 5) We also don't care to see our suggestions carried out to the letter. Obviously that's not necessarily going to happen. However, the point of the suggestions is to get some ideas out there that are actually helpful for the game and to point out the problems.
 * 6) Lindsey isn't the absolute best thing since before sliced bread. Yes, she's taken good steps, but just because ANet is (finally) taking (a relatively few) steps to improve the game and listen to the community doesn't mean that everything's guaranteed to be wonderful in just a few months. Given ANet's track record, I think you can understand why people like Shard are skeptical of her.

69.109.120.41 14:30, 6 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I actually believe that Shard does have some good ideas, I just don't believe his delivery is going to reap any positive results, and if you will notice it was me that fought for and lifted his most recent ban, so to think that I'm just automatically anit-Shard is false.
 * As for the rest of you, I don't really care enough about what any of you have to say, I just get very tired (as does a large portion of the community) to have your ArenaNet hate mongering constantly in our face.
 * While Linsey isn't the absolute best thing since before sliced bread, she IS something we haven't had for awhile, which is a developer who is willing to talk to the community, and I don't want to see that spoiled because people are painting her with the same They don't give a shit brush that drove Izzy off the wiki. I'm simply asking that people treat her with consideration and respect that I expect for EVERY member of this community. So far that has not been very forthcoming from Shard and his fanboys, as is demonstrated by some of their comments. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 14:41, 6 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Just playing devil's advocate, one could point out that the fact that it took ANet so long to give us someone like Lindsey is a failure on their part. Just because many other companies don't doesn't make it ok. 69.109.120.41 15:06, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * The current design team has been failing less and less with each update. The quality of updates and content has been improving, particularly skill balances. IIRC, there haven't been any broken skills made in the last few months. Sure, some nerfs (like Read the Wind) were uncalled for and others (like 2 second cast on enchant removal or 15 second Wail of Doom recharge) could have been done better, but about 2/3 of the skill changes lately have been good.72.64.8.131 00:45, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * But why continue to bitch about past failures when there is nothing that can be done to change them? I would rather see people looking to the future and giving the new the benefit of the doubt until continued failure is proven, rather than hold past failures so near and dear. I mean, stating that they are going to have to inflict self pain because of an update that hasn't been released yet (which is what started this whole conversation) is just ridiculous imo. It's what makes me say they just like to bitch to hear themselves bitch. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 15:11, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Really? Maybe you should ask Linsey what she thinks about us while she's chatting with me and Shard on our vent. I get the idea she rather likes us because we have an opinion rather than a rainbow.-- *Yasmin Parvaneh* [[Image:User_yasmin_parvaneh_sig.png]] 17:18, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, well, I've heard about what a bitch you think I am on your vent as well... so go figure... I don't expect anything better from someone with such a limited set of thoughts they can call their own, or vocabulary for that matter. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 17:31, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Sorry if you got angry with me for TexMod
Ok wyn, sorry if you got annoyed with me, but it clearly put me to Texmod not Textmod and i didnt swear at you or anything and you did and im only saying its TexMod because on this page (http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/TextMod) it takes me to the link of TexMod so i dont exactly see how its called TexMod it may usto of be called TextMod but you gave me the link to it and im sorry to say it said that, now i dont like having somone who did good things for me and then getting on your ignore list so can you please unignore me.
 * It really has nothing to do with whether it's textmod or texmod, it has to do with the simple fact that you continue to harass me in game. I was peacefully playing with my guild, which is something I totally enjoy, and you annoyed me to the point I left the game. I never asked you to contact me in game, our association started with you being angry because I made minor changes to your guild page, and all of a sudden I seem to be your best friend... --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 15:19, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

i need some help with my page
i want to make a nice user page and things like a page for characters and more information like that but how do i do that do i just make a new page for a user that doesn't exist? or something like that?

please help me?--Bowmaster siddius 13:52, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * To create subpages you create pages with names like User:Bowmaster siddius/ . This keeps the page in your userspace. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 13:55, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * ok thanks. I have another question is it possible to change my GWW account name from Bowmaster siddius to Siddius?
 * You would have to register the new name, and then just redirect the old to the new. We do not have access to the wiki database to make those kinds of changes. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 14:02, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * thanks oh and i already had a user called Siddius but i forgot.--Siddius 14:09, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * So now you just copy the stuff from User:Bowmaster siddius to User:Siddius and add a redirect. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 14:16, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Hola Stranger!
Thanks! Yes, I've been away for a while but am back at it again. It's amazing how n00bish one feels after such an absence. Glad to be back. Spiffy pages you've got here. I foresee some template jacking in the near future! LOL Remmy 16:45, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
Thank you for helping ;), sry I changed it back (din't see it, and I thought it had changed because of an earlier edit I did) I was trying to get the header above the guildbox, and the black bars not to go underneath it -- Ellisia  16:51, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * There is no way to not have the black bars underneath the guild infobox, and having all that white space makes it a very ugly page. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 17:13, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to set fixed values for the black bar length? like 10cm/pixels/inces/... from left side? Or just like Xcm whide, alligned left side. Just asking :), if not, I gues it would indeed be better to have it the way you did it ;) -- Ellisia [[Image:User_Ellisia_al_Signiature.jpg‎‎|15px|talk]] 17:23, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Edit: I like it better now, (no black bars poking out at the right side of the box)
 * Thanks for helping me ;)
 * P.S. even with preview I tend to forget things :/, so I do use preview, I'l just have to use it longer I gues :p-- Ellisia [[Image:User_Ellisia_al_Signiature.jpg‎‎|15px|talk]] 17:29, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not very good with  parameters, but I would guess you can set a length, however, keep in mind that not everyone is going to be viewing it at the same resolution (the general wiki optimization is for 1024x768) so setting hard lengths on stuff is going to make it look weird for some people. Generally having the bars under the infobox is a pretty standard way of presenting that type of page design. The show preview becomes a habit after you do it often enough, I just wanted to give you the nudge to start :D --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 17:32, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I see :), thanks again ;) -- Ellisia [[Image:User_Ellisia_al_Signiature.jpg‎‎|15px|talk]] 17:58, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Would using a % for the width help? mtew 18:07, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It's possible, but again, the size of the infobox is only going to change if the contents change, and so it would vary the display based on resolution. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 18:09, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Curved Edging
Hey, I was wondering how you get those curved edges on your pages and templates. I looked through one of your page template codes and I saw a Grooved variable, is that it?

Also, I added you as a friend to my page, hope you dont mind. Through your info you gave me and looking at your pages and your friends pages, I got my own userpage to the way I like it (for now).Neithan Diniem 19:53, 9 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I had the same question, and I found a/the solution:


 * add: -moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0px;
 * to your lines/shapes, (add different numbers for different results :p)


 * feel free to check my page (to find where to place it), just try not to break anything :p


 * I hope this helps ;) -- Ellisia [[Image:User_Ellisia_al_Signiature.jpg‎‎|15px|talk]] 22:11, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Just so you know, the curved edges are a mozilla specific variable, they don't work in IE. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 15:18, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah that figures. I may just have to download firefox then, so that I can have a better page for 1, and to use the other features it has.


 * Also I have noticed that even on Firefox, some personal preference settings makes your userpage and templates have a black background. I figured this cause i looked your page up while not signed in, then again after signing in. Id have to check the setting to be sure, but i think it is the "cool blue" one or something like that.Neithan Diniem 22:03, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Need Help Please
If you want, and have the time, you could please help me with my page again :): I expained it a bit in my talkpage, and more elaborate here: User_talk:Poke Thanks in advance ;) -- Ellisia  15:52, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It seems you get asked this alot, wyn... but think you or someone you know could also take a look at my page? it seems my main page has hight problems with the boxes. On my own computer its good, but on others its not... I read that its screen resolution and the effects of it being different from computer to computer. Is there a way to make these boxes have a hard-set hight/width that will be the same for any resolution? Basically my user page is 6 boxes, 3 atop 3, and they are supposed to align the same as the others. The smaller boxes on the left have issues doing this. So do you think once youve helped Ellisia, you could take a peek at it and see if its fixable?
 * P.S. my page isnt exactly pro codeing, and i hope it isnt too confusing in its repetitiveness... I havent learned another way to properly align boxes, place boxes within other boxes, and basically do much that looks good in a space-conservative way. Thats why my pages consist of several "template" type pieces, to reduce page edits on the particular page the template is showing in.Neithan Diniem 22:40, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
 * My questions are answered, so you can help User:Neithan Diniem :) -- Ellisia [[Image:User_Ellisia_al_Signiature.jpg‎‎|15px|talk]] 10:19, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Neithan, I really like your pages except for one thing.. they are too wide and make me scroll sideways. The wiki is generally optimized for 1024x768 resolution which, to many with widescreens is very constraining, but makes sure that the majority of people can see the entire page on their screen. Other than that, I don't see anything where you need to change anything. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 13:06, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yea, ive noticed that. The thing is that my own computer screen has a quite large resolution, and i advertantly made my page to fit the screen. Im planning on working on it to fix this issue, cause it is annoying to me also when I use another computer. Generally do you think I should try to match the screen size to the top info bar on the normal theme setting? I think my computer stretches it, though, so I may need to work on it on a different screen. User:Neithan Diniem


 * You could work with percentages rather than hard widths. That way it stretches to fill various resolutions. I would recommend viewing it at 1024x768 while you are creating it. I personally run 1600x1200 res on my computer, but I do everytyhing windowed, so I try to keep my window at about 1024 wide. Gives me a bit better perspective when I'm creating things. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 14:01, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Well I Have used percents in widths, but not in heights. Is that possible to use percents in box heights? If not, do you think if I made all the boxes on a page a hard height that all coordinate together, and the widths percent, it would work the same? It should at least if I do it on the correct resolution, right?-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png 16:30, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * What is maintaining the width is the character nav bar w/images. If you were to remove the specific images and just replace them with profession icons, it would be smaller. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 17:33, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * (reset indent) There, Ive edited the nav bar to the proper screen resolution and several of my other pages aswell. To me, on this new resolution, my page looks like all is in order. Took a while though, to make it all fit on the main page (Wouldent align right). Think you could take a peek at it again, and tell me how it looks? So far I have my main userpage, and my warrior and ranger's pages done. Thanks for the help, also, it looks better than it did before now. Oh, P.S., since I placed you on my friends list, would you rather be named there as Wyn, or Wynthyst?-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png 01:15, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Only problem now is it breaks the wiki interface... you have too many open  tags or something.... poke is the one I know that can fix that, but he's sleeping I think. Something in User:Neithan_Diniem/About_me is breaking the interface.... --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 01:20, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Think I fixed it. I always forget to close thos pesky lil /  buggers. the funny thing it that it wouldent break for me, though it did once when I was editing my warrior page in the sandbox.-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png 01:36, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes.. better.. and I like the way it looks now. keep in mind that media wiki will close ONE div or table.... any more than that and you will have issues. Like the formatting on my talk page... the table is open ended as to allow the + to work. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 01:39, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * All right, I just checked on my normal screen resolution, and it looks epic. No stretched or mis-aligned boxes. Only thing I see is on my friends list your name and Alien's are on the same line, easily fixed with a  thrown in there, which I can do another time. Thanks for assisting me on it, its all easy work from here. Ill also look through and make sure all my divs are closed. My pvp page has at least 7 of those div codes in it, not good if they arnt closed. On an off note, how hard do you think it would be to make my basic page setup into a template? Heh, not worth the effort with its confused codeing. Probably too detailed for a template, eh? Then again, I might make it and my character pages into a template one day if I ever find the time and learn how to code it in template-ready form (makes my head hurt just trying to figure out how half the easy templates' coding does what it does).-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png 01:59, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Short answer... not really that much of a problem. Making templates is relatively easy once you grok it.. you just decide what you want as variable and name them and surround them with . See Help:Templates. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 02:05, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I managed it, suprisingly! and it didnt take too long, either. Take a look at my Sandbox to see it at the moment. The only thing I want to do is make it to where I can add additional armor/equipment texts, that way Ill place one there, then instruct them to just add a new code line for each armor piece. My sandobx has what im trying to say in it. I made the template have 3 slots for armors and 3 slots for equipments. Think you could point me in the right direction on that? Ive seen some codes like "Ifenclude" and such, and I think those are what do it, but I cant be certain. Ill be on again tomorrow so I can finish making the template. Thanks for the help so far, its REALLY been apreciated!-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png 03:57, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

image replacement on update list
When replacing a image such as, File:Infestation.jpg how does one unlink it from, Guild Wars Wiki:Projects/Images to update/NPC images? I thought it was done automatically but after removing the image update needed tag it seems to stay linked? Fall 15:04, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It does do it automatically after removing the tag, just not necessarily immediately due to DPL caching. It's gone already, but in the future, if it doesn't disappear after a few minutes, try purging the page. - Tanetris 15:16, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
 * mmk thnx ^^ Fall 15:19, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Sharing is caring
Hi, Wyn! I hope you don't mind, but I used your miniature checklist template on my page. Well, it's not up quite yet, but I thought I'd let you know that I borrowed it. I saved it as a new template under my own page so I could make a tiny revision to fit the style of my page. I hope you don't mind. Of course, if you do, I'll remove the code as quick as a whip! Just say the word! :D -- ★ KOKUOU ★ 16:43, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

 * (Since this section is newish and I didn't want to create one for the same thing...) Wyn, would you allow me to use your templates as the basis of a HoM list for myself? I tried making one from scratch, but it's looking rather ugly. Erasculio 00:05, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

can u tell me how to fix something
i was coping some of your templates and i dont know what i did but all the text on my screen went really small so now all the text and buttons on the wiki apear really small and hard to read on my comp. Do you know how i can get it back to normal? --Nick123 12:58, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Image question
I was wondering about this; Is it possible to place text and other images over another image? Basically I had a good idea for a possible userpage type, and it would involve one or several images composed together to form a "background", with text and other images over this. I know you can make images lock to a preset location on a page (I forget the exact template) and that they overlap other images, but this might cause problems with some screen resolutions. I also know that sometimes useing a float command can possibly do this also, but I am not sure. Do you know who to talk to about this, perhaps?-- Neithan Diniem 19:54, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It can be done, but I'm not the one to ask. Ask poke he has the directions in a sandbox somewhere I think. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 19:56, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * [ Click]! poke | talk 20:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Wow... Way to kill two birds with one stone! Ive been looking for a comprehensive description of how to use #if, #ifeq, and #switch functions, and there it is. Sweetness. Thanks Poke.-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png]] 22:50, 21 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Alright, That'll all help latter on, but I have another question relating to templates. Ive noticed that on a few of your templates, you can add in variables simply by adding them into the template. I'll use your Character page for example. You said that you could add in additional title and honors as needed, and that you could add additional minipets as needed. How is this done? Do you place them within the first or second variable, so that it will display them below it? Or do you actually add in a new line starting with a pipe and variable, and what its equal to? Im asking this cause Im useing your templates as a guideline for my own template, and I want to add that function in for the armors, armor dyes, and equipments. Currently you could leave them blank if you didnt want them, but a space would be left behind in the page, that pretty much disrupts the page's appearance. Also your stuck with the current preset ammount built into the page, which limits its potential useability. With your method it would allow more personalization for the user. After you answer this, Ill probably have to ask Poke to take a look at my template, and verify if a certain use of the #if function is possible. BTW, Sorry bout bothering you alot lately about template, formating, and the like. You seem to be one of the good template makers, or at least a knowledgeable one. Figured youd be the best one to ask on the subject, and be able to tell me who else to talk to. Thanks for all the help. -- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png]] 23:52, 21 April 2009 (UTC)


 * In my basic character template, the titles are displayed as progress bars so to add a new title, you simply add a new progress bar. The minipets would just be a list. I've expanded on some of those basics with my more complex character templates, though I haven't gone so much into the #if stuff since it warps my brain, and then poke has to reexplain everything to me.... and he HATES that... :P --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 01:11, 22 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Are the progress bars added one after the other like this:


 * Or are they like this:


 * I see what you mean now by the minipets, Do you think I should just do my template like that? (I thought that by placing text in a new line like you did there would break the template, but I see that I was wrong >_<)-- Neithan Diniem User Neithan Diniem Sig.png]] 15:00, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Template Guru
Hey Wyn. I've noticed that you are quite the wiz at setting up user page templates. I am pretty new to wiki and am currently trying to set up my own user page. I admit I am a noob when it comes to wikicode so I've played around with copying and pasting template boxes I've seen others use, but I haven't been able to create the setup I want. So I was wondering if you could direct me to a page that shows the code and how to setup a template, boxes, etc, including putting boxes inside boxes. Thank you! --Musha Talk  07:28, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

I used the wrong words. :P  I am trying to set up bordered and colored-in areas on my page to section and partition the different areas/topics.  Can you offer any help with that?  --Musha [[Image:User_Musha_Sigc.png|19x19px]] Talk  20:52, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Older cape images
I noticed that you were assisting me on my guild/alliance and user pages so I have a question for ya. I have 2 browsers, IE6 and Sea Monkey (Mozilla) and the older green image for the guild cape keeps showing up in each browser rather than the latest image I uploaded of the white cape. I've cleared my cache a few times and it keeps showing up. Is there any way any and all older images can be deleted?

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild:Our_Sea_Monkeys_Know_True


 * It was stuck in the image cache. This can happen if it's replaced/reverted too often too quickly. I simply renamed the link on the guild page and uploaded a clean copy. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 07:18, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Correcting links
Hello! We recently updated our guild page and we wanted to inject our sense of humour into a part of it (the list of our guild hall NPCs). Subsequently you decided to "fix" their names. My question is: if we come up with an original template, with our own icons/names and do not link them to the proper NPC on wiki, would that be allowed? Thank you!

--Vixen Edialeda 16:28, 23 April 2009 (UTC)Vixen

Jungle Troll icon
I see you uploaded a of the Jungle Troll, with the grey lines being removed. But Risky's version represents the actual in-game appearance, shouldn't we actually rather use this one? If the icon has some issues, it won't change ingame because we improve its image on the wiki. Therefore i think we should keep it with the little goofs, and let Anet rework it instead. They changed it two times already, i guess they can do so a third time ;) &mdash;Zerpha The Improver 07:35, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No, because it looks horrible. There is nothing that says we have to keep some stupid graphic glitch. You can't see the lines in game because it's the icon in your BLACK storage. There is no reason to ask ArenaNet to correct this icon just to make it look better on the wiki. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 07:39, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * You are partly right. Ingame the icon is directly surrounded by black lines, therefore you don't really notice it when placed in the inventory. But you can indeed see the lines in-game when you drag it, similar to the Dead Staff-skinned icons for example. Besides, don't you think the entire new Troll icons looks horrible in general? It looks really blurry to me, like a resized version of the model that is missing any subsequently added contoures. &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 07:47, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Zerpha, I have cleaned up other icons for the purpose of making them look good on the wiki. I don't see a problem with it. Using ArenaNet's artists time for it is just silly. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 07:50, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, and i appreciate that, it's certainly nicer for the wiki. Yet - I don't want to sound rude, but talking about Anet's Artists' time - that icon really doesn't look like they spend much time doing it :P No clean shape, no shadow, lines on top and on the bottom that can actually be removed in an instant...i'd rather have a well made, less the model resembling one than this new one, in my opinion quite sloppily done icon. Sorry for getting off the point a bit. &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 08:00, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it is what it is. I just think that keeping the gray lines just because they are on the file in the game is silly. While it would only take an arenanet artist the 2 seconds it took me to remove them, they would then have to create a "build" just to correct it, all of which just takes time and effort that is seriously unnecessary. Saying we should keep the bad image until they fix it is just silly. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 08:04, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * My point of that proposal was the following: if we keep the icon as it is shown in-game on the wiki, Anet will rather notice or get reminded that the icon has some goofs. On the other side, it could simply be told to them, therefore it was actually still a silly one, but at least it had ulterior motives ;) And i never said that they need to create a new build especially for some updated icons, they could simply change these along with the next bigger update, that wouldn't really cause a fuss, would it? &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 08:10, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * They aren't going to "notice it" on the wiki and fix it. If you wish it to be fixed post it on the Art bugs page, and maybe they will fix it. Leave the clean image for the wiki. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 08:13, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

 * On the other side i just remembered that it's been ages that i've done so already. Ohwell, we'll likely have to live with those icons then. Anyways, thanks for your patience Wyn :P &mdash;Zerpha[[Image:UserZerpha The Improver sig.png|talk]] The Improver 08:26, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
