 * Thankyou :) -- Flashing Turtle™ 16:49, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, you tagged the image of yourself as "public domain" - does that mean you are releasing it into the public domain, or was that not your intention?  Random  Time   16:55, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Erm i didnt know what to put under the copyrighting license thing, I just wanted to upload it and im not too fussed if releasing it into the public domain lets other people use it cos i dont mind tbh. -- Flashing Turtle™ 16:58, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

File Names
Hiya Turtle? You Luxon? I am.

Anyhoo, now that we've the smalltalk out of the way, I'd like to bug you about something minor if I may. You see, on Wikis in general, it's advocated for people to name images descriptively. This is good for a whole load of reasons. It makes finding shit easy. It makes it unlikely your images will be replaced by someone else (without you being informed) who happens to pick the same random name. It makes life easy in general, tbh.

Now, your picture isn't all that descriptively named. Would you mind responding here with a new name? Something like "File:RealFlashingTurtle" or whatever would be totally fine. Just so long as it's something fairly unique.

If you've any questions or anything feel free to shout. Cheers. A F K When Needed 19:56, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that, I will take note for future reference. FlashTurtleAndMissusReal <-- New filename if thats alrite? & Thankyou :) -- Flashing Turtle™ 20:01, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sure, I will move it for you. Don't think anyone out there will want to name anything else with this. :P RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 20:04, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just in case, for future reference if a file's moved you'll see a redlink and need to change the link.
 * This time however, Rose did a swell job so, yeah. A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 20:21, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thankyou Rose :) -- Flashing Turtle™ 20:26, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * No problem. But actually moved files leave behind a redirect which may be tagged for removal by an admin, which is what I did. Once that is removed, then it will become a red link. That's why I un-wiki'd the link in the OP. RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 20:46, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * And on your talk page :P A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 21:04, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, cool sig Turtle. Looks a bit familiar. :P A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 21:05, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Nothing similar to anything I know of... :P  Random  Time   21:08, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah looks a bit simliar to Randomtime but when i was coloring it and what not i never knew Randomtime existed so it in fact was just coincidence, i can change it if its a problem though matey? &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by FlashingTurtle (contribs) at 21:12, 28 February 2010 (UTC).
 * A problem? Hello no. Just made me smile. :) A_F_K_sig_2.jpg A F K When Needed 21:16, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is it just me or do you lot also find wikicode well complicated to get your head around? -- Flashing Turtle™ 21:22, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's actually quite easy once you get familiar with it, double-square brackets links you to another page, signe square brackets links you to another site, squiggly brackets is a template. I have code-highlighting through javascript, so it's even easier.  Random  Time   21:33, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * I found the Editing_guide useful when I started. And just stealing code from people's pages works too. :P RoseOfKali [[Image:RoseOfKaliSIG.png]] 23:31, February 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thankyou im gonna check it out now, My user page is done but i made myself learn the hard way for some reason lol. :P -- Flashing Turtle™ 09:35, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

(Reset indent) You don't have to no-wiki smileys unless they're at the start of a line, where the : would be turned into an indent. RoseOfKali 13:42, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Image licensing
Any GW screenshots you upload need to have the Licensing: option set to "This is a screenshot of Guild Wars." Even if you've cropped or otherwise edited them, they do not count as "user-created" images. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 19:15, March 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay thankyou for letting me know :) -- Flashing Turtle™ 19:22, March 1, 2010 (UTC)
