Talk:TV Time Toons Menu

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search
Ding! TV Time Toons Menu is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

[edit] No .exe

The computer shown in this section is the Tandy 400, which never had a ".exe" extension.

[edit] Another page?

I noticed that we have the earlier TV guide menu simply listed in the "Triva" section. Should it get its own page? -- Tom 17:36, 20 Mar 2005 (MST)


[edit] Contrast

In the old toons menu, you can scroll over "Strong Bad Email" and click on the contrast buttons but nothing happens.--oopsyoubwokeit 16:52, 28 Mar 2005 (MST)

[edit] an html link...

Sup. What is that swf for the silent Sbemail? I really wanna know! --Homfrog 23:32, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

  • Did you check Secret Pages? If it's the "salty plum soda" email, it's here. (It can also be seen by hovering over "Strong Bad Emails" on the Toons page. --Jay (Talk) 23:41, 24 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Easter Eggs

I think the tool the painter is using is not a chisel, but a spatula. A weird brush would be more logical, but it does look awfully metalic... Also, there are animations for all three bottom buttons on hover, not just the strong bad email one.


  • It's actually supposed to be a pallete knife. Bob Ross used them all the time on his show to make mountains and such.

Also to mix colors.

[edit] Justify channel ID explanations

Okay, 66.41.150.114. First of all, welcome! Why don't you create an account or log in. Second, talk about why the channel IDs need to be explained. — It's dot com 02:22, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)

My argument isn't that they shouldn't (or should) be explained; it's that I don't believe that this is the page to do it. (I already brought this up on Anonny's talk page.) --Jay (Talk) 02:25, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
I like your solution on Toons, Jay. I'm gonna try something... — It's dot com 03:02, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Ooh. I like your idea better. --Jay (Talk) 03:17, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
Yeah, I'm pleased that it turned out well. I was concerned that the two-line format would make it more difficult for a user trying to find a toon. — It's dot com 03:20, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)

We do good work, Jay. I think we just meant to give input (at least I did), but we ended up commandeering the project! Oops! — It's dot com 03:49, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Ah well. At least a few of them, I needed to refer to the old version. Well, YHO, maybe CFB? (I'd already read that one), anyway... (I'd already looked over his list, so I can't say which ones I wouldn't have guessed on my own.) I hope he's not too insulted by that. --Jay (Talk) 03:51, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
It's win–win. He can count it as a contribution for thinking of the idea. The wiki and its users get the info. We got to play with code. All in all, a good night. — It's dot com 03:56, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Rename

I suggest a rename to TV Time Toons Menu to conform to the pattern of naming:

(Also similar to the method of naming the Game Menu articles.) —BazookaJoe 01:06, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Hm... sounds like a good idea to me. Should we make Toons Menu a redirect to here or a dis. page? Rogue Leader / (my talk) 02:00, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm going to say redirect it, at least for now (there are a lot of redirects to semi-necessarily repair). I could go for a disambig just as well. No, now I'm leaning toward a redirect to the current toons menu. Disambig wouldn't be so bad, once we make the sick redirects better. We should do whatever we do with Games Menu too. —BazookaJoe 02:06, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
I'll go ahead and make Toons Menu a disambiguating page. — Lapper (talk) 20:38, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Picture in the static

There is a picture in the static when you scroll over 'new stuff.' Can anyone tell what it is? — 72.79.44.215 (talk • contribs) 05:34, 25 September 2007 (UTC) (left unsigned)
