[edit] Hey

Still figuring out how to use this but yea i just came across this and thought i would join up. You saw the thing on criterion games then? lol —Preceding unsigned comment added by Glesga Maestro (talk • contribs)

Hopefully this has been addressed already. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 00:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Cats?

Is there a way you could duplicate this template on Burnopedia? Thanks, Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 13:24, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Bump. Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 02:44, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

I'll look into it when I get settled in, I am sure it can be. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 00:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, that's simple, but, where and how do we need it? Do you have an example of its usefulness? —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 00:41, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Infoboxes

The district infobox does not display billboard info. I had a look at the template but couldn't see why it wasn't working. Also KonigCCX and I had fun trying to make the district infobox for BSI. We realized that it said superjumps rather than megajumps, so i decided to make Template:Island District Infobox. I failed miserably. I couldn't make it work. Any help? (Check Konig's talk page for our discussion about it) Smudger13talk 16:14, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Same as above... I can incorporate the District one to include Mega-jumps if need be and just use that for BSI itself if need be. No need for another one-page template. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 00:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Done. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 00:39, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] {{Box3 start}}

Do you think you could edit this template so if you typed {{Box3 start|right}} it would float right? Smudger13talk 20:35, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Lol I think you broke it. Look here Smudger13talk  21:08, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Cool thanks Smudger13talk  21:11, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Not really the way you want to use it. You would need a <div> to do what you want. There's no problem reusing the code over and over on that page since that is probably the only time that "box" would be used. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 21:15, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Editing Burnopedia

Hey. I was just looking at the locations for Burnout Revenge and it seems there are no separate pages for the locations. Think we can fix that? 98.228.142.75 13:11, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I am not the person to ask. I do not have Revenge, nor have I ever played it, but I will forward this to someone that should be able to work on it. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 16:52, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Is it possible? It would be awesome!

I was brainstorming for the wiki and thought... what if we could have a Burnopedia junkyard? So I made a mock-up in photoshop with files of cut-out cars that I already had. The real one would be in junkyard-order. I was wondering if you could do this using flash, like the main page. Possible? Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 16:14, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Cool, A 56K killer but cool 8) Spoil-t 23:37, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Anything is possible, unfortunately I don't know enough about java to do this. Also, like Spoil said, it would kill 56k users even if you don't pre-load the 90+ vehicle images. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 23:56, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Pre-load? Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 00:47, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

It's a function in java to load the images into memory before they are displayed. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 01:02, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

i actually think this is a pretty good idea. most people nowadays don't use 56k anymore. they have tutorials for java and flash and what not...p.s, brilliant work on the photo-shopping.TheShafe 00:58, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage

Yo, why did you make changes on my userpage. I'm just curious Smudger13talk  16:47, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

More efficient code. *shrug* Tags that require a termination (like center) and don't get terminated, can cause problems (especially if its a div) so it's better to declare it in the table itself. Plus, the changes I made got rid of all the slack space in your tables. If you don't like it, feel free to change it back. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 17:15, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

If its better then why change it back, I just don't understand all that super complicated stuff. Making templates is as far as I go, at a stretch! Smudger13talk  17:25, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

You changed the bottom table back already =p I dunno, it's part of my OCD. If I see code that's not 'optimal' it drives me nuts and I end up changing it =) —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 17:41, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] hey

nice page —Preceding unsigned comment added by Burnoutexpert3 (talk • contribs)

Thanks. It's really simplistic though. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 22:56, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Vehicle Top Speeds

I was just about to ask if the top speeds in each vehicle article should be shrunk down to |60px, but I see your merging them with the infoboxes instead. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   23:08, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

I like what's being done & putting estimated will shut up people saying "How you know the exact speed" Spoil-t 23:14, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Yeah, I think the discussion we had before I left was to go ahead and do that, but no one took on the job of doing it yet =) Also, there was a discussion about digitizing the infobox with the numbers. I am still waiting for more responses before I change the infobox to handle that. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 23:16, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Feel free to help if you want =p If either of you do jump in... add type=bike to any bike edits you make. I will be changing the template to take some input as far as variants go, but that will be later once I realize how I want to do it. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 23:30, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

I like the idea of adding the numbers to the infoboxes, it's just that none of the styles that have been suggested look very good. It would be nice if someone could find better styles, or recreate the Speedometer text from either Burnout 3, Revenge, or Dominator. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   23:40, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

If nothing else, state your suggestion there. Ex, myself, and a few others are proficient with photoshop, and it nothing else, we can come up with some sort of design that may look good. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 23:44, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Put the numbers in the BP letter font Spoil-t 23:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

I actually like the images that Smudger13 uploaded. An example is at his sandbox. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 07:04, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] My User Page

It would be nice if you actually told me about outside edits to my page, I didn't want all of the text on it to be italic. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   17:53, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Hmm sorry... from the looks of it, all the text was italics. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 19:43, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Top Speeds Continued

I'll be fixing the rest of the Paradise vehicle top speeds tomorrow if someone hasn't already gotten to it by then. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   03:24, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] When?

I think you should put the box at the bottom of the vehicle infobox, like you suggested in Forum:Vehicle Info Box. Smudger13talk  16:13, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Still trying to come up with a pain-free way to do it. =) —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 16:17, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Lol, gotta keep every one happy, right? :] Smudger13talk  16:51, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Gotta keep MYSELF happy and not make it super complicated to implement. =) —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 16:59, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Paradise Discoveries

Let's say I edit the See Also part of the Super Jump article, should I add all of the Discoveries like so,

• Mega Jumps
• Smash Gates
• Billboards
• Drive Throughs
• Car Parks

Or just add the link to the main Discovery page along with Mega Jumps.

• Paradise Discoveries
• Mega Jumps

What do you think? KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   01:42, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Less is more in that aspect I think... The See Also section is getting huge on some pages. I'd rather you link to the pertinent information only. Discoveries and Mega Jumps sounds perfect. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 01:46, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] File:Wiki_rc.png

I was just wondering how/why your name is blue on the recent changes page. (The same thing goes for Exlonox and his name) KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   02:26, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I edited them that way... and you saved me time. Since you are an assistant now, if you like, I can change the reference to your name as well (as long as it is within reason). You can't change individual letters, but any other styling is possible. Give me a set-up you like, and I will see what I can do. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 20:09, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Um, I don't know. I can't really think of anything special, maybe a template similar to Ex's, with a silver border, black or grey background, and my user name silver? If you can think of something nicer yourself, I'd appreciate a preview. - Thanks. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   03:22, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

KonigCcx? —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 03:49, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes, that's exactly what I mean. I'm thinking the italic styling should probably be dropped though. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   03:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I added the italics cuz that's how your sig is =) but it can be dropped... —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 03:55, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

It kind of ran off to the right of the box, so it didn't that great. Thanks for fixing it. :P KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   04:00, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Hmm... did it? I added padding so that wouldn't happen... KonigCcx <-- still outside the box? —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:03, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

No no, that's not what I meant. I was saying that it wasn't parallel to each side of it. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   04:14, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

That's easily fixed. If you like the italic, just lemme know how you want it =p —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:18, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

KonigCcx <--- Off-topic: I noticed that you changed my signature template so that the date is no longer italic. I guess I can see why you did that, but I miss the smaller text. :( <--- KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   04:27, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Did I? I didn't mean to... you had some tags unclosed... maybe I overlooked it. I will fix it for ya. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:29, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I actually plan on changing my signature one more time so that the colors fade from light to dark better. (I'll be able to do this thanks to that web tool link you provided me) I might also merge the talk link into Ccx but I kind of like how it looks. What do you think? KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   04:37, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, you can merge the talk into Ccx if you want. I think that would look better. I see what I did on the time, and fixed it. It was an oversight, and I apologize. If that span you showed above is what you want, I will add it in just a min. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:41, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

It's not a problem, and yes, that's the one I would like added. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   04:43, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Added. Ctrl-refresh your browser to see the changes... namely on RC. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:51, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Noobish question, what page do I need to copy from (and to) to get these changes to show up? KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   08:47, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Actually, something seems to be conflicting with it. I got yours to show up once, then it disappeared for some strange reason. I am looking into what is causing the conflict, but it won't be until tomorrow. As far as what to do... you don't have to do anything. A ctrl-refresh of your browser should show the changes immediately (if there wasn't this conflict). —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 08:51, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I did that as soon as you made the changes in the first place, and have tried multiple times since then, but nothing has happened. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   08:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I know, I've had the same luck. (I am sure you saw my 20+ edits to common.css) I will look at it tomorrow with fresh (hopefully rested) eyes and see what's causing the confliction. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 09:03, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] What the heck?

The last time I had to freeburn with you with Anthony, I looked at your PSN name and it shows that you don't have C&R and BSI packs. How come you don't have it? Do you have Toys, Boost Specials, and even Legendary Cars? If not, then tell me why you didn't have all these premium packs, except the Time Savers Pack. JMBZ-12 18:23, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

I have no clue what you are talking about, but I haven't purchased ANY additional packs for Burnout. I don't have the Time Savers Pack (I've played the game 5 times through to 101%). —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 20:10, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

First of all, wth? 5 times? I think the reason why Rappy doesn't have DLC is because he doesn't play Paradise as much as he used to, so it would be a waste of money. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   20:15, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

That's evident by my lack of freeburn lately, but yeah, that's partly why. The other part is, I have more important things to spend my money on that a video game. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 20:18, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, if you have more important things to take care of (other than not announcing Burnopedia clans, maybe), you should let me or Konig to the announcing for the Burnopedia Clans for you, even for exlonox. JMBZ-12 14:00, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sandbox

I love your sandbox template. how'd you do it. I'd like one on my page too. haha TheShafe 01:00, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I am the main template maker here (as far as the advanced ones go)... There's a lot more on my sandbox, it's just all hidden =p —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 01:03, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

think u could make me one? just want my fave car, haha. Tempesta GT TheShafe 01:13, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Take a look here... if that's not what you want, I will make you something better. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 01:25, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Wiki Links

I think the scroll-over descriptions you created are really cool, but their load time is kind of lagging. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   01:43, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

WTF? Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 01:56, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

(edit conflict):Unfortunately, I don't think there's much I can do about that. There is a delay of 0.5s before it loads the information. You can change this specifically for you by editing your own js page and adding popupDelay=0 to it. If that doesn't make it any faster, then it's the loading of the pages' information itself that's causing the lag, and there's nothing I can do about that. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 02:03, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

In fact, there's a lot of options you can do, you can change the look of any of it that you want. Check here for options you can do. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 02:09, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm a complete noob when it comes to stuff like that, so I guess I'll be playing around with settings. Thank you for the links though. (@ Exlonox, what? Did I say something wrong?) KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   02:14, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't think you did. I am thinking of taking this back down for a bit until I can find out what is causing all the conflicts =/ —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 17:42, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Just so I know, how do I turn off the pop up? Smudger13talk  19:08, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Let a popup show up, then at the top there will be a drop down menu if you highlight popup. In that menu, there is a disable popups option. (Requires cookies) —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 19:34, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Sig Template

Would you mind checking out my template Rappy? There's a missing tag or something else I can't find and it's causing all of the text to change as you can see. =\ KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   20:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Fixed. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 21:04, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

How can I change my Avatar? It wont let me change mine. ;( Oh, and add me please! My PSN is xXnayXx. --The Last Guy 02:17, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

All you need to do is scroll over your avatar on your user page, and clink the link with the word Change. If you're still having problems, just click This Link to go to the Preference page and scroll down to Avatar. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   03:15, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Soundtracks

I saw your todo list and thought it was the least I could do to help you out. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   22:54, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Not a problem. I have quite a bit on my plate, and that todo list was from quite a while ago and forgotten until the other day. Can you comment on this. I know it's a bad weekend to work on it, and no one has commented yet. I may have to push back that Monday deadline. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 23:01, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Rich Text Editor, my smoking rubber...

Okay, im trying to edit my page and replacing an old image with a new one. but each time i replace it, the old one keeps coming up. i have deleted it and put it on, try "replace this image" and it once even paired itself to another of my photos. so what am i (or Wikipedia's "RICH Text Editor) doing wrong? Please help...TheShafe 18:52, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

You're doing nothing wrong. When uploading a new image of a file that already exists, it takes the wiki several minutes to update the image. It's the server-side cache that's the problem. When uploading a new version of a file, wait about 2-3 minutes and you will see the change. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 19:54, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

ha ha, i knew that. thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheShafe (talk • contribs)

[edit] Colors

It seems all right, just change when the amount of info when it goes down should be red. That is it really. Crashbroke23 Burnopedia Admin

Was that English? I have no clue what you are talking about. Also, please add the date when you sign... I have no clue how long ago you put this here. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 07:24, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Sure you can join. Add your info to this page and send an add request to Rappy4178 and Exlonox on the PS3 (for now). This Saturday, depending on how many people show up for the meeting, one of us will invite you to the game. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 18:58, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] "Overlinking" on BP street articles

Sorry about the links made within the Andersen Street page, I just didn't think we needed so many links of one article. Personally I think pages like 1st Street are overloaded with these types of links. Look at the Hamilton Avenue & Gameplay Strategy sections to see what I mean. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   06:15, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. I cleaned it up a little. There should only be one link on a page for other pages, not 3-4. Unless, they are in a table where everything is linked, or a header, or in ==See Also==. Otherwise, one link. Also, if you see links like [[Downtown Paradise#River City|Museum of Natural History]] kill them. There is no reason to link someone to a page that lists the same information about the link that is already on that page. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 06:35, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Conversations getting out of hand

The User:LeMansRacer's talk page @ message: "I have a question..." is getting way out of control, the last reply is especially provoking and I do not believe this is what a wiki should be like, especially this one which is clan based. C ee X 19:44, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

I am already well aware, and running to me won't help matters much. The both of you were already warned by exlonox and still you both continued to egg each other on. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 19:46, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

Seeing as though the infobox has been fixed and is complete with all possible outcomes. Would you like me to change all the Paradise car pages to this new format? Just saves you doing it. LeMansRacer talk PCPD 17:35, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Anyone is free to help, and trust me, I welcome it. If you do, you may be able to cash in on the P12 event this month at the same time and add the Free February Update changes to the Notes section. Also, try to add type = where appropriate as well. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 17:41, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Will this do? User:LeMansRacer/Sandbox. I was going for a column of 3 along one row instead of 3 rows along a single column. I'm not sure if I implemented it well LeMansRacer talk PCPD 18:19, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

No no... no template needed... See the example on Hunter Cavalry for implementation. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 19:52, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

There was already a header for it...I'll start adding the extra models to the cars' infoboxes.--Digipatd 04:45, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

How is it now? The Infobox updates... LeMansRacer said he had updated all he listed vehicles... What's the status? C ee X 15:18, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

So far so good. I haven't ran across any pages that were wrong, but then again, I haven't gone through them all =p —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 21:06, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

Actually, if you are still wanting something to do... all 35 of the original vehicles (non-br versions) need an added variable type = original added to them. —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 21:07, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Slam Dunk! (Challenge Article)

Do you mind checking This Page out? The table here doesn't look right, and I'm sure you could fix it. =) KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   00:33, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I found this while I was looking for some Bike License pictures and I realised that it was the Rossolini Tempesta Dream being used for a Cagney Pack story. I know we left it but I thought it was worth bringing to your attention LeMansRacer talk PCPD 21:26, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

[edit] I need your opinion!

Hey

As you may know, I have started a forum topic not long ago, proposing a new Clan Rank system. The topic is growing and all of the users who have posted on the topic agree with the proposed concept. Several "Big Contributors" (what I like to call the "Major Players") have already posted their thoughts, among these is also Exlonox who is particularly approving this concept. I wanted to have your feedback, after all you are part of the administration and it comes to you to give the green light (or the red) to apply such a system (no coding needed of course as this isn't an "automated" system...)

This leads me to invite you to post your own thoughts and visit the topic! This is the link.

I am looking forward to reading your response!

[edit] Feeling Concerned... :-(

Hey there,

I was just wanting to know how things were going concerning the "New Ranking System" forum topic and the "Clan Card" template.

I am aware that you have another life besides Burnopedia (as do I mind you :P) so I'm not forcing you or anything.

I am still wondering how I can take this concept further, and possibly one day (hopefully very soon) apply it to the clan. I am very much committed to this clan because not only do I like it very much, but I also feel it could be a trillion times even better if tiny efforts were made! And we're inches away from it now!

I am asking you to indicate me what possible other things I could add/change/clarify/whatnot to the topic, aside from "bump"ing it... Also I have, with the help of LM, made a Template:Promotion request form; to this day absolutely no comments have been posted anywhere about it and that certainly isn't sign of perfection... I would just like to have some feedback!

Everyone thinks this concept is a perfectly good one (you included) and should be used, yet nothing is moving. Needless to say that this global lethargic state worries me for the future of the project(s, the clan card project is in your hands now)...

[edit] IRC

I'm a nub... arrg

While I was experimenting with the options in the interface I had the brightest idea to click on "deop"... and now I'm screwed, very deep and very hard... Any chance you could "op" me back? I've tried the command but it says:

[16:53] *ChanServ* OP #Burnopedia CeeX
[16:53] -ChanServ- You are not authorized to perform this operation.

Rappyhelplease! lol Sorry about this! I hope we can fix it without too much trouble! C ee X (TALK) Burnopedia Admin - 14:59, September 4, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] More Cat Stuff

Wait, before I do anymore, I have something to ask you:

Are you sure the toy packs are called "Toy Specials"? I don't remeber seeing that name anywhere. Babadingldoo 23:46, September 5, 2009 (UTC)

We don't have Toy Specials yet. *wink* Spoil-t 00:56, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Clan Card

Thank you for cleaning that up for me, however, I do miss the links I added to the Packs, PSN, and Flag section (along with the extra text I added to file mouse-overs). Do you think you could implement any of these custom changes into the clan card template? KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   22:12, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Another Issue

When you were making recent edits to the clan members page, you trying to fix the cards so they would fit correctly right? They looked fine from my laptop last night (I did not check it today), but now I'm using my desktop computer again and it they are still way too large (includes stretching of the page). I'm sure these issues will always involve resolution (I'm actually getting a nicer monitor tomorrow), but we still need to make sure that everyone can view the wiki without any problems (regardless of res). KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   02:16, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

That's precisely the issue I brought up before saying it wasn't feasible for the clan member page... but someone went ahead and did it anyways. There will always be an issue with that, but there is a slide bar at the bottom for when that is the case. *shrug* I just lurk now. =p —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 04:01, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Just make it one across instead of two. People bitch way less about page length then width. Spoil-t 11:05, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Nonono. It is plenty long as it is. Like Rappy said, they can just scroll sideways. The main page even says what settings to view the site on. Exlonox talk  Burnopedia Admin 18:53, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Help

Hey there,

just to let you know that I need your help for the vehicle infobox, details are on the talk page.

Also thinking about this right now... Could you add a brief = input parameter that produces a small description in <small> and in #EC8500. You can find what I'm asking for on the Van_(Burnout_Paradise) page except I used the image = input to put up the text. I'm guessing this is easy as pie, but despite my 14 attempts/edits, I have failed miserably...

The brief ='s purpose is to add a short description to vehicles that do not warrant their own article.

[edit] The Mother of all Signatures

Speedracer32 - The Takedown Junkie TALK - (GMT) London                                        Region: Hi if you don't already know then Burnopedia has had a big change to the way we talk. Yes we have new signatures! Which I am sporting right now :). All the details are located here, now you might want to look at my template so you know all the coding. Then just insert it into your template and your all set! Posted @: 16:36, December 28, 2009 (UTC).

Yes, I am well aware of the templates. I don't personally like the idea... so... feel free to ridicule me over my "normal, non-sporty" signature. =p —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 16:39, December 28, 2009 (UTC)

Speedracer32 - The Takedown Junkie TALK - (GMT) London                                        Region: Nah, I'll ridicule you over your old 2009 signature as this is what I will be using in the new year... :P Posted @: 16:43, December 28, 2009 (UTC).

[edit] Whatsup

So you've been making quite a few edits in the past few days. I just wanted to say hello and ask what you've been up to since your last "major" changes to Burnopedia. KoenigseggCcx talk Burnopedia Admin   01:40, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Quite simply? Aion... —Rappy talk Burnopedia Assistant • 02:59, December 30, 2009 (UTC)
