Talk:Crystal Desert

I'm working on my Wiki skills here, and I'm taking note of all of the things that are being changed about my work (thank you!). Should the Cities and Outposts section go as subcategories of Areas? Maybe we can work on expanding the template for Locations.

I noticed your edit there Skuld...maybe the Elona Reach/Dunes of Despair/Thirsty River redirects need work? It looks kind of silly with three different formats on the exact same list. - Lunarbunny 03:07, 8 Oct 2005 (EST)
 * Skuld, I reverted your edit here because it made no sense to me.
 * I have a suggestion though, instead of having it listed the way it is now what about this:
 * Elona Reach (Mission)
 * Thirsty River (Mission)
 * Dunes of Despair (Mission)
 * That way clicking on the name takes you to the location entry and clicking on "Mission" takes you to the mission entry. I haven't done much/anything to region entries, so I'm not going to make this change as I don't know what formats have been discussed, but this is my suggestion.  --Rainith 03:35, 8 Oct 2005 (EST)
 * /me goes and copies that. Thanks for a little sense Rainith :) - Lunarbunny 03:45, 8 Oct 2005 (EST)

I tried Photoshopping some icons in .gif for IE (yuck) compatibility. I would like to know if you object to me uploading what appears to already be here in .png. I'll see if I can link them to show them. - Lunarbunny 21:00, 8 Oct 2005 (EST)
 * Alright, all of my examples sans Guild Hall here. I do also see that there are .gif versions of these, but they seem quite messy and have no standard size. - Lunarbunny 21:17, 8 Oct 2005 (EST)


 * We have some already. Used at Locations.  If you can make some that look cleaner, that's fine.  --Fyren 00:10, 9 Oct 2005 (EST)


 * I should probably stop trying to hijack stuff... - Lunarbunny 11:29, 9 Oct 2005 (EST)

Timeframe for becoming 'Desert'?
The Ghostly Hero tells us that the Margonites came "hundreds of years ago" at which time the desert was under water. The lore book says: "Legends tell of a time, thousands of years ago, when the Crystal Desert was covered in water. These legends claim that it was the gods who raised the land, leaving it bare and empty". That's a slight mismatch in timeframes :) Of course we know that humans didn't exist thousands of years ago, so the physical evidence points to the legends being wrong.
