Dr. Mycroft Chris MAIN ~ talk ~ Dr Mycroft Chris ~ Det Marlowe ~ My NT ~ MEMS ~ signature ~ Sandbox Welcome! New Post? Click + NEWS Moved all past convos to an archive Re: Promo and others Good work, mate, but I'd like to change around the message content a tad (I'm a bit busy at the moment, so pay me no mind), and as you can see here (ignore the textual content, it's just a placeholder) I re-did the colour and indent settings to fit more pleasingly into the template. Did you say you redid the scan update template thingy of Alka's? Bravo! Do you have a link to it? I don't see it in your sandbox. Sorry for the brusqueness, I'm a bit pressed for time. CITIZEN VI 06:37, 14 June 2009 (BST) No problems here, just wanted to get it up and running. I am not the world's best copywriter. You can see the changed example to the Suburb Scan Template on our NW Talk page or in my Sandbox3. The source for the template on the WIKI is located here--Dr Mycroft Chris 11:06, 14 June 2009 (BST) Template:NWnews I've took the liberty to fix it. Setting align="left" causes the template box to hover to the left and the text to wrap around it. By removing alignment code altogether, the template stays to the left but the text doesn't wrap. Just one question though, was the decision to change the template yours? Or was it a team effort? The reason I'm asking this is because, while the template looks nice and professional, I kind of miss the good old A.L.I.C.E. -- Kittithaj 18:17, 17 June 2009 (BST) As you are doubtless aware, NecroWatch is at best a loose confederation of like-minded citizens. We recieved a "complaint" about the ALICE template being too obtrusive. We started a discussion between it's creator and us. He gave us carte blanc to re-do as we saw fit. However, we also took this opportunity to change the design as this new template promotes NecroWatch, which is the whole reason we started the template idea to begin with. The ALICE template is sooo cool, but only promotes us tangentially. I must admit, I took action quickly once we had a general consensus and no one voiced a dissenting opinion, so voila! Nothing is carved in stone, all things can change. But it is nice to just get it done, too. BTW, thanks for the adjusting the code. That's a bit of a weak spot for me.--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:08, 17 June 2009 (BST) Well, to tell the truth, I'm not a Wiki code master either. I tried to change its position to align=center as a temporary (and "obtrusive") solution. But I misspelled it to "cemter" and the preview worked fine. So I just removed the alignment altogether. Talk about a lucky mistake. Anyway, the A.L.I.C.E. template is now forever preserved on the discussion page so people can relive their fond memories of it. -- Kittithaj 16:31, 19 June 2009 (BST) Ha! ROFLMAO! What a wonderful mistake...Thanks, again.--Dr Mycroft Chris 23:49, 19 June 2009 (BST) NecroTech Hey! Just felt like letting you know that I am level 3 now! About to be level 4. Am planing on getting shopping. Then visiting that hat shop of yours. Ever think about settling down? Dr Red Shadows 17:06, 9 July 2009 (BST) Well, congrats on moving up a few levels! But as you can see from my logbook, I still got some time to go before I settle down, of course. I'm about to finish the NE quad of Malton in a few weeks probably--Dr Mycroft Chris 22:16, 9 July 2009 (BST) I'm staying at Shore Hills, at the Locock Building. I'm the only one who uses it. No lights. When I get shopping I'm going to go and stock up. Am going to get a rabio for it also! Dr Red Shadows 17:39, 10 July 2009 (BST) Well got shopping. Went to Akland mall. Got a phone, and a radio. Got a pistol and a clip, shotgun shell. You can text me now! :O! I don't have you though. Dr Red Shadows 17:54, 10 July 2009 (BST) Robert is at Darvall Heights. Them 2 could have been friends :/ Where ever your at. Stay there. I'm heading over! - Dr Red Shadows I'm at Adney Auto Repair--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:45, 15 July 2009 (BST) St. Pius's Hospital myself. I'll head over there tomorrow when I get AP. - Dr Red Shadows Robert died! You got a stick? Might as well answer you here to save AP Yeah, we're in the area. Word is we'll be getting a lot of reinforcements too. --Haliman - Talk 01:04, 18 June 2009 (BST) Glad to make your acquaintance Sir! I'm aiming for scans from the other 2 NTs in Quarlesbank soon, but gotta go get gas & gennies first. Seems like a bunch of disorganized ferals roaming around that 'burb. Thanks for the heads up--Dr Mycroft Chris 01:33, 18 June 2009 (BST)--Dr Mycroft Chris 01:33, 18 June 2009 (BST) Most of the groups up here moved to the NE. --Haliman - Talk 01:39, 18 June 2009 (BST) Penny heights NT's Was craddy reclaimed, or did you just drop a fueled genny inside? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:11, 18 June 2009 (BST) Just a drop to get the scan, 3 zeds inside (Ghost Recon Ribbon). BTW, how you doin'? My alt is resting in the Humphrys Bldg a few clicks away loaded with ammo if needed, 3jabbers and a toolbox--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:35, 18 June 2009 (BST) Recent News Template Hey there Dr Mycroft. I just wanted to let you know that I'm reverting your recent edit to the template recent news. The way the template is supposed to work is you type {{recent news}} onto a location page and the template will set up a news archive link. You don't actually add any information to the template itself, but rather to the location page. I hope that makes sense? Anyways if you have any questions on how to use the template or if you have any suggestions on how to improve the directions for its use please feel free to contact me via my talk page. Laters! --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:11, 23 June 2009 (BST) Oh, you know what, I just went to the Vincent PD page to re-add your info there and I realized that it was a problem with the template itself, and not something you did. Sorry for the confusion. I'll sort it out. --GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 17:20, 23 June 2009 (BST) Thanks for that, 'cause it was a little bit confusing and I still have no idea how that happened. I was updating the "Current Status" when I went to save and some other page came up saying "Template." I thought, Oh Crap! what did I click this time? Glad that's sorted out--Dr Mycroft Chris 10:23, 27 June 2009 (BST)
