User talk:Wings of Blood/Archive 2

Welcome

Traveling back in time to say welcome to the wiki! =D — Wolf 20:45, July 30, 2008

Thanks, I'm new around here as you can tell. -- Ψձㄅ 21:32, July 30, 2008

May I Ask...

...why you edited User:Thedabie? *Defiant Elements* +talk 21:33, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Alright, that's fine. On a completely unrelated note, it's generally best to respond to posts on your talk page directly on your talk page (that way the discussion stays in one place) and it helps if you sign your comments by appending 4 tildes ~~~~ to your posts. *Defiant Elements* +talk 21:43, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

ahh ok hey talk to Capt Rujiyo....I'm a lil busy and in mission. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Blood234 (talk • contribs) at 21:44, 6 August 2008 (UTC).

Part of the beauty of a wiki is that it needs not be in normal time, or on any set response time at all unless one is discussing immediate changes to an article. Respond and edit when you can. Also, got you with sign tag. --Chaiyo Kaldor חיו 21:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

lol thanks, just in a bit of a rush...mission and stuff (Blood234 21:49, 6 August 2008 (UTC)) and we failed, figures (Blood234 21:50, 6 August 2008 (UTC)) END OF DISSCUSSION

Tabs

So, the Tabs template is actually composed of four different user templates, so long as you use Gaile's example as I did. You want to start by copying User:Emily Diehl/Tabs into User:Emily Diehl/Tabs, and then change all instances of "Emily Diehl" to "Blood234". Next, while you're still editing your Tabs template, go to the bottom where it says "Templates used on this page". There will be three there, but a fourth will be implemented on your page. Open those three while they're still red links, and copy-paste from User:Emily Diehl/Tab2, User:Emily Diehl/Tab1 (copy it to User:Blood234/Tab1), User:Emily Diehl/TabsTop, and User:Emily Diehl/TabsBottom, to their respective pages in your userspace. Even after all this rigorous copy-pasting, you're not done yet! As I found out in my exploits in tabbing, there is a slight problem with Tab1 if you straight copy-paste. You need to make a line break like so as Y0 pointed out for me, since Emily has a template of her own to deal with this. Afterwards, modify to your heart's content, since no edit can't be reverted when you're doing so. Just play around, make it look nice. Remember to give her credit on your userpage as I keep forgetting to do, also, whether you keep it as-is or not. I used this color wheel for all my color-changing needs, and I believe that the code number first to the right is safe for the wiki. Well, good luck with all this! --Chaiyo Kaldor חיו 22:23, 8 August 2008 (UTC) END OF DISSCUSSION

Heya

Did you know you can Show preview of your changes to see what they will look like, and continue editing? Also, if you are making minor changes, you may want to select This is a minor edit so your edits can be filtered out of Recent changes by those who monitor for vandalism. If I can be of any assistance, let me know. -- Wyn 23:47, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm yeh but there's no need to tell me on this when im in your alliance..... I'm a retard at adding tabs though. (Blood234 23:50, 8 August 2008 (UTC))

LOL! You weren't in game silly :P And I fixed up your userpage for you... you just need to fill in the rest of the info, and create the other character pages. -- Wyn 00:42, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Cinematics

I am glad you are willing to help, but please to read the guidelines before you start making more pages. — Seru Talk 19:03, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeh sorry about that.(Capt. Rujiyo 19:05, 12 August 2008 (UTC))

I have one question though, there is a clip before this one but no one speaks in it, what do I do? Should I just bypass it and label "#2" "#1"? (Blood234 19:10, 12 August 2008 (UTC))

If theres more than one then name them. (cinematic or missions name) 1 cinematic still.jpg, (cinematic or missions name) 2 cinematic still.jpg ect ect. Even if they dont say anything, you still need to have a screenie and character list. — Seru Talk 19:19, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

kk thats what I didn't get figure out.....ugh that means I have to do that mission again....NOOOOOO!!! (Blood234 19:20, 12 August 2008 (UTC))

Its not like doing all of The dragons lair just to fail the bonus and get that one. Do you know how to resize the image too? If you dont you can just keep uploading the full screen shots and ill just make them up to standards for you. — Seru Talk 19:22, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

No, I don't know how to resize images but The Dragons Lair mission page has text with failed bonus too. (Blood234 19:25, 12 August 2008 (UTC))

i know i have to go through it just to fail the bonus xD, i can fix the images for you. Just upload like you did for the diggings and i'll resize them. — Seru Talk 19:26, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Lol, I guess I'm forced to do ALL of NF since I need masters on HM now =\ (Blood234 19:28, 12 August 2008 (UTC))

Signature testing

testing ([[Image:User_Blood234_sig_icon.jpg‎|19px]] 08:18, 13 August 2008 (UTC))

Ok.. my signature line looks like [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]]<small> [[User:Wynthyst|Wyn]]</small> since I resized your image you don't need the size parameters, so your signature line should look like [[User:Blood234|Blood]] [[Image:User Blood234 sig icon.jpg |Blood's talk page]] -- Wyn 08:23, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Blood

is what it is supposed to look like "code; [[Image:User Blood234 sig icon.jpg | Blood234's Talk Page]] (Blood 17:54, 13 August 2008 (UTC))

HAHA I GOT IT (Blood 17:54, 13 August 2008 (UTC))

Your signature is STILL wrong. You changed the signature line I told you to use. Copy THIS [[User:Blood234|'''Blood waz here''']] [[Image:User Blood234 sing icon.jpg |Blood's talk page]] -- Wyn 18:05, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Ok so this, ok thanks but i see your sig has an error, idk, i could be wrong (chances are i am).

Thanks for they help...just making Tameles with my family...Tall white guy making tameles..Hey! I'm 4th gen! (Blood waz here 18:49, 13 August 2008 (UTC))

Was trying to fix yours, since you changed your image and I didn't realize it. And you STILL have an extra ( in your signature line :P at the very beginning but other than that it's working fine now.-- Wyn 18:51, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Actually looking at it you seem to have your entire signature line in parentheses, and you don't need to, it just makes it look wierd. -- Wyn 18:56, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

I was going for the whole bold technique xD... Oh i found another project to work on too if you're intrested...atm its abadandoned but its for quick rep locations, the next thing i need to learn is the whole User box thingy like "This user shares his/her locations of fancey quick rep locations" (BlOoD wAz hEre 19:04, 13 August 2008 (UTC))

Seriously the parentheses around your signature (+ timestamp) are confusing and annoying. poke | talk 20:19, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

lol me neither, i saw it...too heavily pixled (Blood) 03:47, 14 August 2008 (UTC))

Just upload the large pics and leave links on my talk page to them so i can resize them— Seru Talk

ok and btw PM my character, I'll talk to you through there...doing hm (Blood) 03:59, 14 August 2008 (UTC)) END OF DISSCUSSION

Umm

You need to first redo your signature so it doesn't have any (). 2nd you really need to read the formatting guide about the cinematics. — Seru Talk 15:19, 14 August 2008 (UTC) I read it just now..saw some of the errors I made, I'm still reading more though Blood END OF DISSCUSSION

:\

are you sure this has 2 cinematics? — Seru Talk 21:12, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

yes, the first one was no words but like a boss scene but in-game quotes go before it

like this;

Melonii:we have to get there.

- - Then the cinematic goes, no one speaks...shortly after the cinematic melonii and kormir say thanks. You kill the boss and the last cinematic starts Thats all I remember Blood

So just a movie no dialogue? — Seru Talk 21:34, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeh no one speaks in first cinematic. oh btw here's a link to a picture I'm uploading for Gate of Desolation File:Gate of Desolation Cinematics.JPG DELETE THIS PICTURE AFTER YOU DOWNSIZE BRO. Blood

Can't use has a character in it. — Seru Talk 21:56, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

damn, is it ok to cut character out? Blood

I'd like to have a picture that doesnt include a party member only major characters— Seru Talk 21:59, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I'll try getting one either off wiki already or re-do the mission when I have the chance... END OF DISSCUSSION .

Question

Is it ok to use images from wiki already? Blood

Im confused by what you mean. — Seru Talk 22:07, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

sometimes under the mission wiki page someone as already put an image of the cinematic Blood

Show me an example — Seru Talk 22:10, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

nvm Can't find one...thought I did. Blood

There any party members in this one? — Seru Talk 02:37, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeh but you don't see them, they just watch...I added them in anyway, thanks for pointing that out...also NF template is missing ALOT of cinematics...it as the mission ones but not quest ones. Should I put spoiler alert on them too btw? Blood

No. are the party members in the background or not seen at all? — Seru Talk 22:45, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Not seen at all, well at least henchies, I'll double check, but for now I added them in Blood

No, henchies or not, party members are treated the same. — Seru Talk 02:55, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

kk, there are party members. Well they're already added onto page =\ Blood

Hey Capt., using four tildes, ~~~~, when signing will also include the timestamp as well as your signature -- it's useful for seeing when comments were made. -- Brains12 \ talk 23:58, 18 August 2008 (UTC) oh ok, Poke got annoyed by it lol...kk, thanks Brains Blood 23:59, 18 August 2008 (UTC) END OF DISSCUSSION

There is no process to add {{delete}} tags on guild pages. Please read the Guild page policy to see the deletion process for those pages. It starts with a {{guild cleanup}} tag that provides 14 days for the editor to bring the page up to requirements. Thanks!-- Wyn 02:04, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Userboxes

Because I like to have template within template within template upon my userpage, I've stolen these userboxes and attributed them to you. Just wanted to let you know and give you ample time to protest, and to tell you that you may want to fix your grammar. --חיו Chaiyo Kaldor 22:32, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

The image used on that music userbox is a copyright violation -- we can only use GFDL or ArenaNet content. -- Brains12 \ talk 22:38, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Ok. Yyes my grammar sucks, I've been trying to work on that.

Brains, did you check the new one; it was put on the web under two licenses. I couldn't figure out what to do so I just put it's two licenses up. Blood 00:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

You always want either GDFL or public domain. we cannot use CC images and btw dont upload a new one until its deleted. and check out my chameleon userpage. it changes color! every hour at least. — Seru Talk 00:38, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Which website(s) did you get it from? (Also, you'll need to resize your sig image as the height is currently 22px. Put |19x19px (or lower; has to be 19px or below) after the image file name.) -- Brains12 \ talk 00:43, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Blah, I give up on that image. I'm making a new one, my own. That could explain alot about my sig, I didn't know about that, I'm also going to make my own sig then lol. Blood 00:54, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

(Reset indent) Regarding your comment on this page, making userboxes on individual pages is fairly easy. All you need to do is copy-paste your latest creation into a new page in your userspace, either with a name related to your box, or with a number if you make enough to not have time to name your creations uniquely but have the time to use individual pages. You would probably put them in [[User:Blood234/userboxes/<box name/number>]]. Next, template it into your userbox page as you would a Templatespace template, i.e. put in {{User:Chaiyo Kaldor/Userboxes/Roll}} next to {{User Luxon}}. Template. The advantages to this sort of thing are threefold:

1. Your userboxes are easier to be used by others. If you're really concerned with the sort of thing, it's easier to put it into the Templatespace, but remember that that reduces your control over it.
2. It allows userboxes to be edited individually, which is especially helpful for those pesky grammar edits.
3. Most importantly, you can leave notes and Usage instructions with the <noinclude> code.

Anyway, sorry for bugging you on your talk page, but this doesn't seem like something I should be leaving around on my own, tiny pages. Good luck with fixing your images. --חיו Chaiyo Kaldor 01:31, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeh, I need the luck lol. Blood 01:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

My god, I need to archive...how do I?

The subject says it all Blood 02:00, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Make a new page like User talk:Blood234/Archive 1. Take all the text you want to archive and shove it in there. Make a link on your main non-archived page that presents your archive for public viewing. So place the link I just gave you at the top of your page and you'll be fine. Also - {{archive box}} can help with the display too and {{archived}} will denote on your archived page that it is such. --People of Antioch 02:59, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Also, your image wasn't named correctly. If it's for the user space, try [[Image:User Blood234 <description here>.jpg]] for that. --People of Antioch 02:59, 26 August 2008 (UTC) Wait, which image? my sig or userbox? Blood 03:02, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Are those smiley templates really necessary? -- ab.er.rant 06:11, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

I think so. Theres and such, why not the simple smilies? I'm on my last one too btw. It does seem stupid though but I like smilies Blood

Because I think it may incredibly clutter up talk pages with these icons when more and more people start using these smileys instead of simple :) and :( and worry that it'll start a trend of people adding icons for all the possible emoticons... but for now, could you at least resize the icons to 19 pixels in height? So as not to increase vertical space on normal text lines. Thanks. -- ab.er.rant 06:20, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeh man, I understand. People will spam the similes alot. I'll resize them down too. Blood

All resized for you, thanks for pointing that out btw, as I'm the only one who uses them and we're both the only ones who know about them .Blood

I resized the template but I don't know how to resize the uploaded image, and I call my self a GWWW helper pssh; I'm un-categorized so that's o.k.Blood

I agree with Ab.er.rant, I'd rather not see emoticons or even wubs everywhere I go. Anywho, where did you get those icons from? They look exactly like the MSN icons (and even with part of the background left in), which I doubt are released under public domain. -- Brains12 \ talk 14:54, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

These defiantly look like screenshots of MSN messenger emotions. They would therefore not be in the public domain, and are copyvios. -- Indochine talk 15:04, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

sig

You'll have to reupload that image under your username, e.g. Image:User Blood234 red dye.png. You may need to resize it so it's no more than 19x19px, too -- just putting 19px often doesn't work when the height and width are too far apart; as you can see, the current image is making the gap between comments larger. Guild Wars Wiki:Sign your comments has more information. -- Brains12 \ talk 14:57, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Not to mention the fact you have to use an icon that's unique to you, not one that's used across the wiki. Please read the signature policy. You should also refrain from changing your sig icon often as it is meant to be an identifier of YOU. -- Wyn 15:43, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
