Nice job, Murgh, but can you make the images link to the article instead of the image? --Selezen 10:38, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

it wan't me (although it's looking spookily similar to the oofleet page now) but MtKlima and Galileo. making the images link shouldn't be tough, but I'm not so sure if I like the columned look. gets assymetrical and cluttery..--Murgh 10:49, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to standardise the sizes of the columns, and I'll make the images links too. --Galileo 13:24, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

yes, that's much nicer. I guess you'll do the lower section when you get into linkifying the images, eh? have you tried it without any visible borderwidth though? still not sure framing them in like that is the most aesthetic choice..--Murgh 17:47, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

BTW: how do you guys actually produce these pictures?--Rxke 10:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

not difficult once you're going (ie a hassle to do it for just one ship, but faster when doing several)
-take the pic (best in demoships sequence or shipyard, or wings, not so nice in oolitespace since the lighting is often lacking and you get plumes and such).
-open and crop in photoshop, remove surrounding "paint" with a magic wand (ie make all non-ship transparent). I like to go over the edges with a blurring tool to avoid the harsh pixels. contrast, lightness and hue tweak (esp for pics taken in wings)
-resize and fit into a 100x100px frame, save the png..

wow, I didn't realise the results could be that good. Thanks, time to make me a SC avatar!--Rxke 11:16, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
