Armor art box
Details about usage of the armor art box will be added soon. - BeXoR   11:57, 16 January 2007 (CST)
 * Can I suggest that the lower sections of the armor art box (in the mesmer example), the "Used by:" and the "Crafting" to be centered? It kinda looks skewed to one side, especially so when the entries might be few. Also, I think the colon at the end of "Used by:" should be removed, for consistency. -- Ab.Er.Rant (msg Aberrant80) 01:10, 25 January 2007 (CST)
 * If you would like to change it, please do so. I am not good with templates. :) - BeXoR  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 01:21, 25 January 2007 (CST)
 * Done! (I'm becoming brave now with my new template editing powers.)  --Glynnis   15:42, 25 January 2007 (CST)

Grey armor images
I have one question... What's the point of all the grey armor pictures? They look HIDEOUS, they don't show what the armor will look like when dyed (gray usually blends in with many undyeable armor details), and it takes up so much space! And, especially, the grey ones are annoying on the main profession armor pages, when you're trying to pick an armor you want to craft for your character, and have to click like a maniac to get a general idea of what they all look like... Please, someone justify why these pictures exist? I'd really appreciate the answer... RoseOfKali 07:04, 29 April 2007 (CDT)
 * Because after months of discussion by the many people who worked a great deal on the armor area, we decided that we would present the armor the way every player sees it when they purchase it. We present the pictures so that people know what they are buying. The dye pictures exist solely to show which areas are colorable. This isn't a fashion gallery, it's game documentation. - B e X or  [[Image:Bexor.png]] 01:40, 30 April 2007 (CDT)

crafting vs acquisition
The general guidelines section calls it acquisition as do serveral articles. However the example box has crafting. I thought it was supposed to be acquistion and changed a few articles as such but then looked again and noticed the difference. So which is it? I think acquisition makes more sense as some of the armor is collected, acquired as a pvp reward, etc. &mdash; JediRogue  16:26, 29 May 2007 (CDT)
