New s & f
Aratak made a gallery template and I revised the gallery s & which you can read here: Style and formatting/Armor/Art gallery. I will be starting to update all of the armor galleries. I've already got screenshots for female Canthan and Shing Jea Mesmer armor and I am about to take the male ones also. I suppose I will adopt all the Mesmer galleries and try get new screenshots for all the armor types that are easy to get or that I have already. I made a list here which shows which ones I plan to get or have already done. I can do a few of the other professions armors too. So sign me up! - BeXoR   21:39, 6 January 2007 (CST)

Question
I just updated Mesmer Prophecies Headgear/Female to reflect the current s & f. I will do male later when I take the screenies (masks are sitting in inventory). I noticed these pages: Mesmer Attribute Headgears, Mesmer Headgear as well as Mesmer Prophecies Headgear. Why are there so many? - BeXoR   22:57, 6 January 2007 (CST)
 * Another thing I noticed: I've been using my pve chars to make the images. The dye was getting expensive (I don't have that much money but its 1p for each armor set). I thought I would try a pvp char, but the default armor colour is silver not gray. So make sure if you use a pvp char to buy some gray dye! - BeXoR  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 18:28, 7 January 2007 (CST)

Delete
A reminder to those working on this project: Put delete tags on the images you have replaced. And don't forget to check the "what links here" section and replace the image on those pages with your new one (for example you should check main gallery (Mesmer armor) art gallery (Ascalon Armor) headgear gallery (Assassin Headgear)). - BeXoR   10:34, 9 January 2007 (CST)

 * They look good but I feal the background should be in a lighter color. Also you could use the template to follow the same naming patern then the other galleries.&mdash; ├ A ratak ┤  20:45, 29 January 2007 (CST)

I did the Male Ele Ascended Canthan, and I was wondering if it is acceptable. I realize the background may of not been the best, and I can go change it. I have more armors that I can post up, and If I can get some feedback on that one, it will help me out for the rest. Also, where is the location that most of the shots are taken. I tried many places on the Isle of the namless, but I could not find a perfect spot. Thanks. Moiax 20:02, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Bexor has a video of her doing armor screenshots (in the "Misc" section of her userpage). It looks a lot like the northernmost beach on Isle of the Nameless, and she gets the characters to stand still using /attention.  &mdash; [[Image:Fin_sig.gif|User:Kyrasantae]] kyrasantae   20:18, 29 January 2007 (CST)

 * You misnamed all of the pictures as "Cathan". Make sure you use the template, as it generates the names for you automatically (as long as you enter it correctly the first time). The template and how to use it can be found on the s&f page. You were very close to the location I use, and you're facing the right way. I'll post a small map after this. Also you should turn post process effects off because it tints the light and blurs thing, and make sure your pictures are 200x600 or a variant of that size (if you use photoshop you can test sizes by making a blank image of that size and resizing it to get the correct height and width). This is because the profession index creates gallery thumnbails automatically and we want them all to be the same size. It's not a rule that you have to stand to attention, but it helps a lot because it squares the character off and makes the pictures smaller and easier to crop to the right ratio. - BeXoR  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 22:39, 29 January 2007 (CST)
