Weapons previews moved to Mainpage User:X08

Talk

I somewhat fixed the names of the files you uploaded. When uploading please use full names. This being because on the corresponding page, there is a bit of code that uses the pagename. By using this code, the file has to have the right name so it'll show on the page. Gotta love infoboxes. Anywho, thanks for those great screenshots! - Endeavor 18:02, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

On a side note: the files above, a lot of them I didn't get to; if you could please unabbreviated GS when moving the filename, that'll be great! - Endeavor 18:04, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi X08 - the stuff above this section (e.g. the armour galleries and to-do/status updates) would be better placed on your userpage, User:X08. That makes it easier for other users to contact you on your talk page and read discussions. pling 18:09, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey there! Love all of the equipment pics you're posting. How did you take them all? I can't imagine you had enough time during the beta events to purchase/unlock all these pieces. And if you did, what's your secret? XD - TaxBrony 19:33, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Invest shitloads of time =) and spamming Printscreen =) X08 19:37, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Damn. Did you have to craft most of them, or were they purchased with gold or karma? - TaxBrony 19:40, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

File:<Year> <Month> <short description>.xxx is appropriate for screenshots. In this case, the "short description" would likely best be the full name.(Edit:See my talk page) And TaxBrony, you can right click and preview any wearable gear from the vendor menu. — Rari 19:43, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Really?? Did they add that in later? I was trying so hard to preview items in the first BWE. I loved being able to do that in GW1. Good to know, thanks. X08, I'm dying to see the rifles next! :3 - TaxBrony 19:46, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

I'll do rifles after shields, which I'm cropping at the moment. X08 20:14, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

png vs. jpg

Hi, I just realized that you uploaded many pictures of weapons, Greatswords especially, which is great and thanks for your contibutions.
This wiki utilizes many templates. These templates always will grab the picture with the png ending as icon and the jpg as a screenshot from this item.
You can this this in this article: Axe of the Dragon's Deep, where this file File:Axe of the Dragon's Deep.jpg is used as screenshot and this file File:Axe of the Dragon's Deep.png is used as an icon. It would be nice if you could reupload those screenshots as jpg, an if you have the icons upload those as png. This would help very much since all templates would work correctly.
I want to point you to whisperer weapon, where the code in the table thinks File:Whisperer Greatsword.png is an icon an resizes that and puts it there. This is by the way who I wound out, about your great contribution. - Yandere 16:42, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

I just locked at you user page, and relized that you where already on the task. Keep up the great work. ^^ - Yandere 19:43, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
