Hey, just wondering where you got the newly updated cards from, can't seem to find a link for them Pillowkeeper (talk) 20:17, 4 June 2015 (EDT)

They're on [http://urealms.imgur.com] It gets updated fairly often. Also I believe Rob tweeted it out the other day. Plornt (talk) 20:19, 4 June 2015 (EDT)

Yeah, Rob tweeted out a link for the week 2 cards. Luckily someone already uploaded all of them, so I only had to include them and write the description.--Razorhead (talk) 03:39, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

Can you do me a favor and add anchors for the items that are missing anchors on the cards page. Not sure how to do it? Pillowkeeper (talk) 11:15, 6 June 2015 (EDT)

Done! I just created new Redirect Pages to the Cards. The reason why those weren't up yet was because I had yet to reinclude those cards somewhere, they are now on their respective race pages. --Razorhead (talk) 11:36, 6 June 2015 (EDT)

I saw you fix the typo of a category. I do it like this because that's how wikipedia.org formats the main page of a category so it shows on top of the list. If we want to differ from this style I am open to it. Skydivizer (talk) 08:05, 8 June 2015 (EDT)

No, I honestly thought it was a typo. Once I realised what you were doing I reverted my edits. I like your way better! --Razorhead (talk) 08:29, 8 June 2015 (EDT)

Removing Redirects

Hey just to note, don't worry about going back and changing it, however please dont remove redirects as a search engine may have indexed that page and thus making it no longer redirect will make people land on to a blank page. Plornt (talk) 06:56, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Ah ok, I thought that because no page linked to the redirect I could safely remove it. --Razorhead (talk) 06:56, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Yeah, I can automatically remove non-linked redirects that are a month old (after search engines have removed them in favour of the redirected page. I mean its not an issue right now as we've not been indexed but the site map for search engines contains links to any page even without being linked to. Plornt (talk) 06:58, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Transparent Images

All the images you uploaded with transparent backgrounds have these huge empty spaces next to them. What this means is when they get re-sized as a thumbnail they actual picture itself is made very tiny. You could easily see this on the Dwarf page where the actual picture was much smaller compared to what it used to be and the Goblin page where there was a big gap above the top of the picture and the goblins itself. Also while I know we don't want duplicate images, please do not upload edited images over official images like the Game Pieces. I know the transparent version of the Dwarf is basically the same as the game piece, however if people want to play the game themselves they'll need the game piece version, not the transparent one. In this case just upload the transparent one as something else like Dwarf Transparent.png --Petertwnsnd (talk) 13:50, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

We don't need the game pieces anymore. Plornt is creating a widget that will create tiles from the images, but those need to have transparent backgrounds. Take a look at Category talk:CharacterImage --Razorhead (talk) 14:00, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

As far as I can tell that Widget is not working yet and in the meantime we have pages with weirdly proportioned images on them. Until his thing is up and running we shouldn't override all the stuff that is working with stuff that doesn't. Once it works that's a different story, but for now we can't use the transparent images in the state they're currently in. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 14:14, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

They cant use the game pieces yet AFAIK anyway. I guess what would be best of both worlds is literally having both uploaded. But yeah, I'm currently working on the widget. Plornt (talk) 14:28, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

I'll revert the images then and upload the transparent versions separately. --Razorhead (talk) 14:29, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Wouldn't it be best to upload the transparent images with less empty space around them? Or would the images work with the widget as they are? Skydivizer (talk) 14:33, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Auto cuts down the transparentness to size so it doesnt really make much of a difference for the widget but yeah, thanks Razorhead for volunteering for that annoyingly long task haha. Plornt (talk) 14:35, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

I just found out that increasing the image width to 350px in the mobbox solves a lot of the smallness issue with the transparent pictures, can I try to put that into the template itself to test? --Razorhead (talk) 14:37, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

In fact dont worry about it, I'll auto trim and then upload, if you just revert all of them back to their original image (sorry!) Plornt (talk) 14:41, 10 June 2015 (EDT)
