GuildWiki talk:Armor galleries project

Who would want a male necro :p &mdash; Skuld  04:23, 22 June 2006 (CDT)

Nice, I wanted to do a list like that myself, for personal reference, but yours is a lot neater than any I would've done. :) The armor galleries (or rather the lack thereof) is something that's bothering me for quite some time now. I hope there'll be a lot more in the near future. How do you think about adding the other professions? Even if you won't be updating those, other people may and it would be nice to have one whole list for reference. --84-175  (talk) 04:47, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
 * I put in stub sections, as to leave no doubt to my intent of including all classes :) In case you might have some wrong impression, I'll do my best to fill in missing galleries, but do not plan to do all of them &mdash; I am fully aware that I am only human :P -- Ledrug 19:34, 22 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Oh, you are? Dang! And here I thought we had the solution for our armor gallery problem at hands... No, seriously, I'm well aware that one single person cannot possibly complete all armor galleries. You're not alone, though. ;) --84-175 (talk) 19:40, 22 June 2006 (CDT)


 * Nice work. Some of my chars have some of the missing galleries, but my characters do not strip. :) --Karlos 03:55, 23 June 2006 (CDT)

I've got Female Mesmer Canthan 15K (except Mask), Female Assassin Kurzick 15K and Female Necromancer Tormentor's 15K which, according to your list, are missing partly or totally. If you want to get screenshots to complement the galleries, just contact me in game. --Theeth (talk)   20:57, 25 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Great, I'll see if I can find you in a short while -- Ledrug 21:00, 25 June 2006 (CDT)

Added Female Monk Kurzick Armor, feel free to scratch that off your list. :) &mdash; Galil  01:19, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Did Female Necro Luxon Armor too, but then my list of chars whose armors aren't listed is very empty. So keep up the good work! &mdash; Galil  01:47, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Done :) I cropped those images and formated the two galleries also. -- Ledrug 02:14, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Looks better now yeah, I just went with the inconsistency of Monk Kurzick Armor/Male. :p &mdash; Galil  02:28, 26 June 2006 (CDT)

I have a couple of sets of female 15k tyria tattoos, i'll try get round to doing those at some point &mdash; Skuld  05:33, 6 July 2006 (CDT)

15k Druid (male) done for ya :) -Auron  00:34, 26 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Update... Warrior Ascended Kurzick section finished, including colorable areas on male armor. Oh, and male ele fissure armor (dyed) has been added. -Auron [[Image:Elit Druin.jpg|||My Talk]] 03:05, 30 August 2006 (CDT)

Updated Male Canthan Warrior 15k some time ago. --84-175 (talk) 04:36, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Now it looks pretty :) I found a template I like for armor pages, and it organizes pictures quite well. Thanks for your images, 84, I included most of them in the newly-templated version, I just filled in a pose or two with my war. But before I do more armor-page editing, I'd like to know if there's some kind of pre-set template for armor pages. I don't want to re-do loads of work simply because I was ignorant of the "accepted" template. -Auron  01:39, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I assume you mean a template for the armor galleries? Because the armor pages thenself indeed do have a template, which should be in place at all of them already. See Style and formatting/Armor and the corresponding Talk page. The guidelines for Galleries there are pretty vague and so far there are as many different templates for the galleries as there are users editing them (although all look quite alike). You should creating an example page of your template and put it up for discussion here (that topic definitely needs to be revived). --84-175 (talk) 02:21, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Yes, my mistake, I mis-used "template." I took a stab at breathing life into that thread, but it's so buried that I fear nobody will uncover it and put forth their ideas. I mean, how many people stumble onto "guildwiki talk, style and formatting, armor, gallery standardization?" You'd have to be pretty lucky. May I be as bold as to suggest a more public view of the issue, so users can discuss, vote (if necessary) and carry out the standardized armor formatting? -Auron [[Image:Elit Druin.jpg|||My Talk]] 05:43, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

Your Tick
May I make use of your tick icon on my builds page? --Ab.Er.Rant 23:29, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * [[Image:Yes.png|16px]] :) -- Ledrug 23:36, 26 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Thanks! XD --Ab.Er.Rant 23:44, 26 June 2006 (CDT)

Moving to project
Since this is belong to a user page and that user have been away from the wiki for a long time and this would be a good project for the community to take, I wonder if admin can give tell me if I can move it. I know that what people summit to wiki are free to use but the right to user page always trouble me.&mdash; ├ A ratak  ┤  12:01, 23 October 2006 (CDT)
 * It is right that a user's namespace is usually considered off-limits to edits from other users. However, I wouldn't apply this rule to a reference list like this one. It has already been used by the public anyway (although it was edited by Ledrung himself only, until recently). I agree that making this a project in the main wiki namespace is a good idea and will perform the move myself. If Ledrung disagrees, should he come back, we can always revert. :) --84-175 (talk) 14:26, 23 October 2006 (CDT)

Gray base color
I think we should make all main images and icons with the current original grey dye, and make all the other pictures 'alternate' views, romoving no longer possible colors. Mithran 18:10, 26 October 2006 (CDT)


 * A good idea, but a long project. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 02:27, 31 October 2006 (CST)


 * A good idea for eventual goal, but in the mean time, if we don't have the gray color image, and there are two colored images, we should keep both colors. Having the contrast of different colors to see which parts are affected by the dye is the most important thing. - 02:36, 31 October 2006 (CST)


 * Yeh, ofcourse don't remove images before the new version have been uploaded. --[[Image:Gem-icon-sm.png]] (talk) 04:23, 31 October 2006 (CST)
 * Sure, look like a good idea but since most gallery, even some profecies armor, are not even finish, I doubt that changing them all to grey will be easy. Maybe if we make this easier to find. I know that we have a task list but I don't think is easy to find and most user never see it.  I seen active user talking about something like that on talk page and never realise it already exited.&mdash; ├ A  ratak  ┤  22:12, 31 October 2006 (CST)
