Templates

Good job on the templates they look amazing :) --Red Rath (talk) 16:17, 4 June 2015 (EDT)

Thank you! Are there any others that you think I should make? I'm trying to make sure I make all the ones we'll need for a while. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 16:20, 4 June 2015 (EDT)

I actually had a thought. A lot of TV show wikis have episode templates, could be have one for the campaigns? With links to the previous and next and such? Sorry if this is a lot of asking, but your templates are marvelous Pete!--IronClark (talk) 19:30, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

Yeah, I'll work on it. It'll be a bit different from the other ones so it might take a while. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 19:34, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

Understandable, I appreciate you giving it the time of your day!--IronClark (talk) 19:39, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

Uploaded files

Hey, when you're uploading files, could you please upload images in png format? This is as easy as opening the image in paint or paint.net or photoshop or any other image program, and just saving it as png. Although the image quality will not get better, when the wiki scales the images down, compression artefacts will appear, which does not happen with png. --Razorhead (talk) 04:07, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

I can, I just have a ton of images I downloaded in jpg format and It'll take me a while to convert them all. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 10:47, 5 June 2015 (EDT)

Sorry to bother you again, but when you're uploading files, could you please refrain from uploading duplicate files? For example you uploaded goblin-1.png when there was already a Gobling.png with a worse image that you could've replaced. It's already fixed now since Rob gave us a new image to use, but please keep it in mind for later! --Razorhead (talk) 07:11, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Yeah, I was debating with myself whether or not to replace the old file, however the old file was a goblin without a shirt and since it wasn't the exact same I wasn't sure if people might still want to use the shirtless version so I uploaded the new version by itself just to be safe. Also where did you find the new images? They weren't added to the post on Reddit or to the imgur account. I looked everywhere and when I couldn't find them I went and added the ones I uploaded last night. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 13:10, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Rob visited the wiki 10 hours ago. He left a message on Admin ToDo with a request to change the names of the Characters in the Nuren Campaign, which we already did. We also left a link to a rar file with all the images I uploaded. Plornt created an archive on that page however, so the only way to view the message is to click the 'Expand' button on the request header. The button is over on the right. Also I answered your other question on my talk page. --Razorhead (talk) 14:04, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

Races Page

Hey, just wanted to ask why you deleted the Race cards in the Template from the race page? You provided no explanation in the edit comment or on the talk page. --Razorhead (talk) 03:52, 6 June 2015 (EDT)

Sorry, I left an explanation on the Classes talk page because they're similar reasons and forgot I didn't do one on Races as well. Basically showing the cards didn't actually add any new information, but it did take up a ton of room on the page and prevented us from adding information about races we don't have cards for. If we want to display those cards it makes more sense to do it on the actual page for the each race instead of the main page listing all the races together. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 11:02, 6 June 2015 (EDT)

Character Portraits

RadioactiveK makes really fitting versions of every week's cast, and I find that the current portraits of the main cast don't represent the characters very well (because they're just the same characters with different hats, mostly). Could these versions be used instead? --Borrops (talk) 09:15, 13 June 2015 (EDT)

While I too really enjoy RadioactiveK's work,it's still fan art. I know people think it looks better, and I agree it looks amazing, but it's important that as an information source we use official artwork and show how the characters were actually represented in campaign apposed to an fan artist's rendition. I recently added Galleries t all character and actor pages and there's already ones for each campaign. We specifically put them there so fans can display prominent pieces of fan art. If you have any other questions feel free to ask. --Petertwnsnd (talk) 11:45, 13 June 2015 (EDT)

I think, not a hundred percent sure, maybe 65%, but I think Rob has contacted Kara for the official portraits of the characters. She mentioned in a reddit post I believe that Rob has asked her to do it. However, I do agree with Peter in that we should wait until the website to come with the official portraits (but I really hope we get to use Kara's art. Such inspiration for my own desires to be a character designer) --Clark (Chitter Chat) 13:32, 13 June 2015 (EDT)

Moderator

Hey, you're also a moderator now. Congrats. I was wondering why you were still a regular user, since you're pretty active. I'm glad though, this means I won't have to patrol all of your edits now! ;) --Razorhead (talk) 12:50, 13 June 2015 (EDT)
