Admins, are these ok to be served locally from the HR site? I'm guessing yes, but I want your blessing! :) --Stux 01:44, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Oh, and here's a "Whatever", cuz I had to add it! ;) --Stux 01:45, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

No. They only can be served from the Wiki. —Gafaddict (Talk | Contribs.) 01:56, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Oops! By HR site I meant the wiki! :) Stux

Does the gallery feature allow for subtitles? I liked the ability to click on each character's name to get to their page. --Stux 02:27, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I had an idea

Back when it was a graph, I had an idea. Why don't we include the dates of when each head was used? - Joshua

Good idea! I was thinking to also include the last quote that they had and a link to it, but maybe that is 'overkill'. --11945 (^Talk/_Ctrbs) 02:27, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Dates by themselves should work. - Joshua

That's really not necessary, because that's noted on the Quote of the Week page. — It's dot com 02:32, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

But we love organizing stuff many different ways. Eh, I don't really care so much. - Joshua 02:33, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Background

The backround of that gallery is slightly different than white. Can someone fix that (I don't know how)? The picture backrounds are white, not transparent. --11945 (^Talk/_Ctrbs) 02:26, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I don't know whether that's changeable. We may just have to live with that. — It's dot com 02:32, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I agree, although I wish u could change it. SM looks kinda freaky. — _talk Bubsty _edits

I've been trying, but so far no luck. See this page for info. — It's dot com 02:36, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

If we change it back to a table, there would be a way to make it look like a gallery and get the backrounds white. Also, it would make it look like the QOW page. --11945 (^Talk/_Ctrbs)

Meh, I think that would be only a marginal improvement, especially considering how convenient the gallery is. — It's dot com 02:46, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Apparently According to Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Gallery, the only facilities it provides is referencing the links and adding optional text. --Stux 02:45, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Options: we can use the Wiki tables format (haven't learned that one quite well yet), or we can use the hard-coded gallery output and change the color like this:

<table class="gallery" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td> <div class="gallerybox"><div class="thumb" style="padding: 26px 0;">

and then modify the color settings (ugh somehow, -- i'm still not that familiar with CSS)

We could also photoshop all of the backgrounds. (forgot to sign) --Stux 02:51, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

I fixed Strong Mad (hard-refresh to see it). Does it look good? Do the rest need to be fixed? — It's dot com 02:56, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)
