[edit] Sandbox

Hey there. Just so you know, I was only kidding around, so don't be offended. :) I wrote more on my talk page. — It's dot com 01:44, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Image naming

Hi there. I'd like to give you some advice to name your images something a bit more descriptive than "Picture 1". Usually we give images name that somewhat describe what they contain such as "Bubs's Cigar". Hope that helps! — Defender1031*Talk 13:36, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the Advice!--Record307 23:49, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Signature

I made you a signature here. I think this is what you asked for. Note, I didn't know which of its colors you wanted, so i made a blend of three of them. What do you think? — Defender1031*Talk 00:10, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

I think Record307's new signature looks... SO GOOD!!!-128.103.10.17 01:21, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
You know, I could have made you a signature. I would have loved to, because I help this guy every time he needs a sig change! Call me if you need me or meet me here if you want to talk in person...ish. Okay bye, MichaelXX2 mail_icon.gif link_icon.gif 01:45, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Using Show Preview

Hello Record307, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, — Defender1031*Talk 18:45, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, I couldn't get the images in the right places. Someone fixed it.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 18:59, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
I understand that, but if you use show preview, then you can play around with it without it showing up for everyone else untiul you get it exactly right. — Defender1031*Talk 19:15, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
I knew about the button. It's just that I was editing one section. The reason i did keep pressing it was because i wanted to see how it looked with the other sections. For example, I was only editing Japanese culture greg. Then when I pressed the save edit button, it only showed the section by itself. I wanted to see how it looked with the other sections.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 21:24, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
In a case like that, you should edit the page as a whole, and then you'll see the preview as a whole. — Defender1031*Talk 21:26, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
Oh. DUH! Why didn't I think of that? Your a smart guy.Record307 Talk/Contribs 21:28, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Birthday

You guys can leave your birthday wishes here.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 22:10, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for Your Assistance

Thanks for your assistance in the most recent vandal attack. We haven't had one of such serious nature in a while, and your help in reverting his work was most appreciated. Keep up the good work. --DorianGray 03:25, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

No prob. Glad I could help.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 03:26, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sig too large?

Just for the record, sigs appear different for different users using different font sets. When i made it for you, it fit just perfectly on my own screen. — Defender1031*Talk 05:04, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Really? well, when I put it in the box it was a little to big on my screen.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 11:17, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
That's why the sigbox is a guideline, and impossible to use as an all-around rule. If it's close, people usually don't complain. The problem comes when people have sigs that are double and triple the sigbox's length, not when they're a couple pixels bigger. — Defender1031*Talk 16:45, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Oh. So it was fine I didn't have to make the picture smaller.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 20:43, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
No, but in truth, i think it might look better this way anyway... — Defender1031*Talk 20:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Your right.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 20:46, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] thanks

thanks for mentioning me on your userpage. --FangoriouslyFotoshopStar.png 22:10, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

no prob, thanks for mentioning me on yours.-Record307 Talk/Contribs 23:09, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] You are so lucky!

You have such a great page and I don't. Do you have any tips on how to make a page great? I would like them very much!

Thanks --Lappy486 00:36, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Decemberween Sig

Record307 Talk/Contribs

How's this? That'sBupkis! 11:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
ooo, Thank's a lot man! I appreciate it!--Record307 Talk/Contribs 12:36, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Welcoming

Hey, Record. Just wanted to mention something about this welcome: While it was nicely written, it wasn't personal. You could copy that welcome to any new user, and it would work equally well. We really want to always make welcomes personal, based on a user's edits or something on their userpage or something. Just something to work on for next time. Thanks, and keep on tranglin'. Heimstern Läufer 14:29, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Sorry. I had just woken up and I couldn't think of anything else to say. Thanks for the ideas though.--Record307 Talk/Contribs 17:03, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
I thought my welcome was fine! you did a GOOD job, Record. Jibblejibblejibble 02:06, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

Hello, Record307. Wanted to mention to you that whenever you make an edit summary, you should be sure it makes sense not only on Recent Changes, but also in the page's history. For example, this edit summary refers to the edit summary below it on RC, which means it won't make sense in the page history. Edit summaries last as long as the wiki does in page histories, while they disappear from RC in a few days, so it's much more important for summaries to make sense in pages histories. Thanks, talk atcha later. Heimstern Läufer 01:49, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

On that note, I apologize for my sarcastic reprise of the same. --Jay (Gobble) 01:54, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
I accept your apology Jay. I also will make more sense in my summaries.--Record307 Talk/Contribs 01:34, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Bottom 10

Hey there. We didn't get rid of it; it's just temporarily broken due to a known issue with the software. It will be fixed the next time we upgrade. Cheers. — It's dot com 02:43, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Oh, thanks for the information DC.Record307 Talk/Contribs 02:44, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
