icons[edit]
i think there are other icons that better represent the shining blade that can be used.. like the moss spider - Zesbeer 12:36, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- if to continue the green look,moss spider would suit it.--Neil2250 , Render Lord 12:41, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Moss spider means shining blade better than shining blade emblem does. Lol. --Master Briar 12:42, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- no the other icons for the topics like featured article ect.- Zesbeer 12:46, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- Came here for the same reason. The icons seem arbitrary and don't relate to SB at all except for maybe the top 2 boxes (the letter and the sword). It feels Jungle themed, sure, but Jungle != Shining Blade to me. Rose Of Kali 15:14, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- If you can find anything "more" relevant, then feel free to add them :) the Shimmering Essence was used by the SB to enchant their blades, and the Arcane Crystal Shard was crafted into arrowheads to use against the Mantle. It's difficult finding relevant icons, but I think the new costumes could provide us with a couple :P --Santax (talk · contribs) 15:25, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- (Edit conflict) A couple possible icons I just thought of are the (edited of course), and . Rose Of Kali 15:28, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, The essence and the shard only became clear upon research. A cropped no-background .png SB logo could be a good choice as well. Rose Of Kali 15:29, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

So, Gear and equipment would be the Uniform, PvE could be the Scepter of Orr, PvP the SB logo (either one, maybe rotate the black one if you use that), that leaves the Wiki Community box... How about the ? I can't think of anything else right now. Rose Of Kali 16:12, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Ooh! Or the infusion turd! :D Rose Of Kali 16:16, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- And here's a transparent one: . Rose Of Kali 16:30, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- That transparent scepter of orr is appearing on the scepter of orr page and messing it up, is there any way to tell the item template not to include that image in the inventory icon? <_< -- Chrono (talk) 21:52, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Fixed. Didn't know it would automatically include it by name. :P Rose Of Kali 22:13, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- i still think a moss spider for shadow would be epic...- Zesbeer 22:14, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, that sounds good, completely forgot about it! Better than a turd. :P Rose Of Kali 22:18, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

I updated the page (hope you don't mind), I like how it turned out. I changed the glow of the logo to green instead of their wine red, it goes better with the colors there. Rose Of Kali 22:50, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- starting to look good were almost there imho i think we could move some of the icons around also i would like to see the use of this - Zesbeer 23:49, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was thinking about moving some of them around, too. And maybe replace the shimmering thing with the signpost, it really doesn't look like it has anything to do with Shining Blade or Kryta, looks like it belongs in Vabbi or something. Rose Of Kali 00:08, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- i was also thinking we could use the webbed chosen that we use in the Halloween version.- Zesbeer 00:18, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- Too creepy, methinks. The only semi-ambiguous thing left is the crystal, anyway, and I kind of like it. Rose Of Kali 00:21, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- This is kind of cool, but not sure it would work here. Rose Of Kali 01:48, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

icon links[edit]
Might be a good idea to make the icons link to an article when clicked, instead of the image's page, especially since some of them were custom and don't link to anything else. Like make the Crystal link to Bloodstone or the quest giver, Scepter of Orr to itself, Moss Spider to her owner Shadow, the new costume to its article, the logo to Shining Blade. This can be done using the "|link=" parameter inside the image, like [[File:Shining Blade Uniform f full.png|link=Shining Blade Uniform]]. Rose Of Kali 02:02, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
Colors[edit]
These colors are really nauseating..... -- Wyn talk 13:53, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
- True, but it's still a very good job. GO Shining Blade! Etnys 13:04, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Headings[edit]
Do we want to make the headings of each section more thematic? --JonTheMon 16:12, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- What do you mean by that? Rose Of Kali 18:58, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
- Well, like "Game Basics" here is "Basic Wisdom" on the WM version, for example. --JonTheMon 20:06, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

- Whatever works, just giving some ideas =P. Besides, that was because they steal the White Mantle's gear XD Taros 18:30, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
