GuildWiki:Suggestions/Galleries

You can look at a list of weapons and click on each one to see what it looks like, but it would be a great help to see weapons, shields and foci in galleries with all the images on one page. Many people look for weapons and shields based purely on the skins. I can't count the number of times I've looked at pages for each shield to see what they look like. This would be quite useful. Information on what dyes would also be useful on there so you can pick out all your equipment and coordinate it.

Pros

 * 1) useful service
 * 2) Many of our weapons/shields/foci pictures are standardized and well done with good lighting and size (mostly thanks to User:Jennalee
 * 3) Easily implemented

Cons

 * 1) Knowledge of the galleries' existence needs to be circulated
 * 2) Likely won't draw new contributors
 * 3) Pages with large numbers of images may load slowly, especially for users with slower connections.

Response

 * Implementation of this suggestion has commenced, see Category:Weapon galleries. Suggestions are still being taken, though.
