article images

Is there any reason you're switching them round so the concept art, the one that looks less like what's seen in-game, is more prominent? GP

You callin' my screenshots simple? Um, anyway...yeah, if you intend to change it on every enemy page, it would be best to make a forum topic about it so the community can decide. I guess it's all a matter of preference; I prefer the screenshots since they're what you see and...well...I captured a lot of them... GP

Hey blue ninjakoopa, you were mad about the loss of the gallery of enemies? well its been recovered!! just go HERE!!! Now you can continue your enemy picture thing!!The one and only,Peanut64.

Artwork

Where did you find all this artwork? It's amazing, especially the Violet Candypop Bud artwork.File:All.jpgPikminFile:Hairybulborb.jpg1254File:Specialpikmin.JPG

Actually, some of these images were already there, but for some reason they weren't being used. The few images I uploaded are from GameHiker (I received permission). Blue Ninjakoopa 18:26, February 7, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, cool.File:All.jpgPikminFile:Hairybulborb.jpg1254File:Specialpikmin.JPG

Admin

I made you an admin. I feel you deserve it, and the more active admins we have, the better -Revan 01:26, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. :D BNK ^[E|T|C] 01:31, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks, dude.

Thanks for saving my user page. Can you please protect it for autoconfirmed, since I'm not an admin here and can't ban the fools myself. And can you also block the guy's sockpuppets Marc95 and Zeldaman101 so he will not cause anymore harm. Thanks. :) BTW, personal attacks have sadly become common among the vandals here, so....--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

No problem. I protected it for a week since it isn't a major target for vandalism, but if more occurs, I'll extend the time. :) BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:11, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

I appreciate it, but can you also block the guy's socks? Green and the others had the discussion about it on the user's I.P. talk page. He lied to the admin, so his socks need to get blocked.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

I blocked Marc95 and Zeldaman101; what more are there? List them here so I'll know who to block. BNK ^[E|T|C] 03:16, March 12, 2010 (UTC)

That's it, those were all the three trolls that have been personally attacking users (such as me) and vandalizing the Pikmin 3 page. I asked Green to block them two days ago, but he hasn't been on, but thanks for helping out.--FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

Gosh, What do they have agaist you game?RpwybObeys the cross

Skin

I wouldn't call this site's 'well-thought-out' or 'authentic' since I did it quite a long time ago, but yeah, I wouldn't mind helping. Not so much with the design (colour scheme, images if any, etc.) as with the code to implement it all, but yeah, 'kay, if I have the time. Do people there have some kind of idea what they want? Also, the logo - if the wiki's active enough and has any graphics-y people, maybe a logo contest like they had at Wikitroid a while back would be nice, since the one there doesn't do much (...and no, that's not something I could do, considering this wiki's logo, though I guess I have improved since then). GP

Question

What's the difference between a frame and a thumb? File:All.jpgPikminFile:Hairybulborb.jpg1254File:Specialpikmin.JPG

A thumb promises the clicker of the image within the thumb that the image will be larger. If the image is the same size as it is in the thumb, then it shouldn't be in a thumb, but in a frame, which shows that the image is at its full size. Yes, it does matter. BNK ^[E|T|C] 21:58, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Much obliged. File:All.jpgPikminFile:Hairybulborb.jpg1254File:Specialpikmin.JPG

Pikmin 3 Ideas deleted?

why did you delete my pikmin 3 ideas?

Unnecessary. You could try placing that information on your own user page. If you want ideas from the community, make a forum. The mainspace is not your personal drawing pad. BNK ^[E|T|C] 23:43, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Kirby skin update

Top, bottom. I went for a dark content area, most like the SSBM stage. I'll (probably) add shading to the trees, and there are some bits left to do, mostly content area things like ToCs and galleries and whatever else I can find in use. I've also yet to test in IE.

Questions:

• I'm having trouble seeing a non-disruptive way of getting the fountain itself in; suggestions, assuming it's still important?
• The line through the tabs at the top is a bit distracting; this is an alternative, but the logo area doesn't look as nice when it's not as well-separated; which is better/what else could I do?
• Are the colours okay? Text, links, backgrounds, images? Still colour-blind here...

And overall impression, I guess? GP

It looks fantastic so far.

• That is a hard question, but I'm guess you can place the fountain in like you did the trees, except higher and somewhere on the right. Would there be a way to make the pages see-through enough so that text isn't disrupted too much?
• While it is distracting, it's nothing to be concerned with, but I like your alternative. The logo floating out there isn't too nice; would you be able to enlarge it a bit, or make one using this? Kirby himself doesn't necessarily need to be present in the logo, and with him out, there is more room.
• Every color looks incredible, you did an outstanding job so far.

Overall impression: I love it, and I'm sure the community will too. A little tweak here and there as listed above, but otherwise it's perfect. BNK ^[E|T|C] 21:32, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

The only reason I could place the trees outside of the page is because that part of the page is often empty: something fills pretty much everywhere else. So yeah, that leaves behind the content. I'd also have to create the image.

I quite like the current logo, and I don't think having a different logo would make it look any better: it's more the lack of separation from the Wikia logo above it, which is in the header.

Anyway, I'm going on holiday for a week from tomorrow, and don't think I'll have it ready before leaving. I did some stuff to overcome an IE limitation to make some images work, but it's made apparent some overlapping issues in IE. Other than that, it should be just (simple) shading on the trees and rehosting the images. GP

Create what image? The fountain? If that isn't too much, could you make it to replace the trees since you can't place it anywhere else?

OK, so I guess I'll take option number 2.

OK. BNK ^[E|T|C] 02:42, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, well, talk to GameFreak about the fountain since you seem to have different ideas. Which was option 2? GP

I'm sure he'll agree with me. By option number two, I mean removing that transparent whitespace behind the Wiki logo. BNK ^[E|T|C] 21:19, July 31, 2010 (UTC)

This for the logo area? It's got the bar, but it doesn't extend: best of both. GP

That looks fine tbh. BNK ^[E|T|C] 21:32, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, I've fixed the issues I was having for IE >6 and am now personally happy with everything. Based on my earlier attempt at the fountain (here if you haven't seen it), I'm not sure how much success I would have with it. We couldn't find any decent images before, if I were to try to use an existing one.

Note that since the content area is now dark, visual templates like infoboxes and page footers, and the headers on the main page, will need new styles. I'm not sure whether it would be easier to start on those before changing the skin - what do you think? Simply outright changing them would make them look terrible in every other skin, though - I can do some stuff to get them working for all, if you need me to. GP

The fountain looks good, but if you are able, could you make the fountain look more like this? If you can't, that's fine.

Could you? I'd appreciate that, and thank you in advance. You're right, just changing them wouldn't be a very smart tactic, even though I'm unsure if other users use any other skin than our custom one. BNK ^[E|T|C] 17:26, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

The huge one (the whole stage) or the small one on the stage that's actually similar to the original (and mine)? Though, TBH, I was giving that image as an example of my failure to make a decent fountain. Obviously I would make it the right shape and give it all the base it needs (its function's changed from what I had in mind when making it). I quite like my trees, and overlapping is always good, so if you actually think this thing looks usable, I could integrate them together, in the one image, same position.

Regarding people using other skins, I was thinking more Monobook users, especially noting that Wikia skin choice can't be made on a per-wiki basis. GP

Oh, well in that case, disregard my comment (sort of; I think the draft is nice, but I don't want to use it); I would prefer it if you used whichever one is easier for you (or, whichever one you could work with best).

I see.BNK ^[E|T|C] 18:05, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

Disregard your comment saying not to use this one; you don't want me to use this one; you would prefer I did whatever's easiest for me, which is using what I have. Which is it? (I'm not an artist: I don't see myself doing anything much better.) GP

lol

I said: Disregard my comment on changing the fountain to the given example, I had no clue it was a draft; if you can't choose, I suppose I want you to do the fountain from the Kirby games, not Melee; so yes, use the fountain from the Kirby games, BUT, if you find that too difficult of a task, use what you have and edit from there. Hopefully these options are clear, and I apologize if I'm starting to seem bossy. :$ BNK ^[E|T|C] 18:53, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

Think this would do? Without the background, of course. GP

Yes. BNK ^[E|T|C] 19:39, August 10, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, this (which I think looks weird, having different styles together), this (which is sad 'cause I like my trees) (I would fade out the waterfall-type things so they don't just stop; I did do this, but clearly not enough) or this? GP

Definitely the third option. :D BNK ^[E|T|C] 21:49, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Blech, you need to do some discussing, 'cause GameFreak said 1st, and comment on my talk says 1st/2nd. GP

It's not his decision tbh.. but OK. BNK ^[E|T|C] 20:40, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

I thought you were both admins? Plus how he was the one who originally approached me. GP

I'm sure he'll agree since there be no significant difference. BNK ^[E|T|C] 20:56, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, bro, we'll use the third one. When will this be implemented by? I want it to be changed before KEY comes out.... --FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

I'm sure it's near completion. BNK ^[E|T|C] 04:32, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Pretty much. Thing is, I'm going away on holiday again for a week tomorrow. What I'll do is compress/upload the images later today, give you the code, and then if you want, you can add it while I'm gone. Of course, the templates won't look good (I'll look at how much work that would be later on today), and if there are other issues I won't be here to help. Otherwise, just wait another week. GP

'Kay, uploaded them; here's the code:

Don't worry about that. :)

You were right about the templates. Since there needs to be some adjustments, I won't implement it immediately; I'll instead make it a personal option for users (temporarily). I'm bad with coding, so it will be heard spotting what to adjust.

Overall it looks great. Thank you so much! I will await your return! BNK ^[E|T|C] 22:33, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Also, the background is different (darker and less aurora-y); what happened to it? BNK ^[E|T|C] 22:35, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

I tested it and it looks fantastic, but I have two complaints.

1. The templates to the left where the search bar is looks weird. Is this fixable?
2. Is it possible to make the background of the recent changes transparent like it is here on the Pikmin Wiki?

Overall, I love it Green. --FREAK ~Game Freak~OUT!

Hello, so you like Pikmin too?
