I'll be honest. I'm not very good at this (not yet, anyway) and there are at least two changes I'd like to make to this template but I don't know how. Any help would be greatly appreciated. First--I'd like the text to be a bit smaller. Second--I'd like to reduced the size of the flags. Zahir 13:39, 21 May 2007 (PDT)
- Cool template! I will use it. About the flags' size, perhaps they can be reduced by using smaller ones. --Pedromoderno 16:10, 21 May 2007 (PDT)
- Nice template. In addition to what was said the link colors needs to be tweaked (or the background color) as now the dark purple color of used links does not reads well on the black backround. Will see what I could do later. Abdul-aziz 17:37, 21 May 2007 (PDT)
- Corrected the things mentioned and added my proposal. Of course, lines with the belligerent nations might be added or removed depending on the number of such states. The "War" logo could probably be changed by a map of the war if such a map exists. An example of how this template would look is at Thunderstorm War article. Abdul-aziz 02:28, 22 May 2007 (PDT)
- I like the new template, although to be honest I miss the black background. Methinks it had a cool look that thematically fit the subject. Still, the links all-but-disappear against it so I shouldn't complain. Let me design a new war logo. Still like the dragon skull. I especially like the smaller flags in two columns, which helps serve to make information readily available. Thanks! Zahir 08:36, 22 May 2007 (PDT)
Just a small suggestion: the dragon's head could be made red to fit with the other ones.--Marc Pasquin 07:27, 22 May 2007 (PDT)
- Done. Re-did the war logo, and altered the template to make the names of the winning and losing nations into links. I rather like this version. What does anyone else think? Zahir 10:45, 23 May 2007 (PDT)
- I agree it looks better without the black background - that was sore on my eyes! There's a spelling mistake - "loosing" should be losing. I've fixed it but for some reason it's been subst'd a lot of places and I can't be bothered to go about fixing it individually - can someone else do that? --Quentin 13:59, 23 May 2007 (PDT)
