User talk:RAP

Click one of the four types of discussion you want to initiate communication with User:RAP  ( + Banter / Off-topic discussion) ( + File / Image discussion) ( + NIWA discussion) ( + Wiki dicussion) 

Hello, if you accidentally came here to look at my userpage, click here! Otherwise, welcome to my talkpage. This is where all your comments, questions, and concerns are written here for me to look over them. Here are some guidelines:
 * Add " ~ " next to your sig or comment, that way, I can tell how recent your comment was written.
 * Do not make unnecessary headers/sections. They are likely going to be merged to a previous header.
 * I respond your messages in my own talk page for efficiency purposes.
 *  [NEW]  Put a link to the image instead of outright displaying it.

Upon replying your message, in this talk page, here is my signature:

Poor transparencies?-- 03:15, 13 June 2013 (EDT)

RE: Regarding your Pipe Plaza section "Projects Seeking Contributors"
Hey. Apologies, but I sent the section in to Paper Yoshi on May 11th. The collaboration was created on May 13th, and the talk page question at Category talk:Staff was posted on May 14th. I'll ask if I can edit the section to incorporate these additional two points.

 * I Just checked. Thanks for the late additions. Let's hope both of these are resolved in the meantime. -- 23:25, 23 May 2013 (EDT)

RE: Minimum resolution
I don't think we've ever consciously discussed tailoring the wiki for any given resolution. For what it's worth, I think 1024×640 is the bare minimum nodaway. --Glowsquid (talk) 23:50, 25 May 2013 (EDT)
 * Thank you very much Glowsquid (before the current username: Blitzwing, and the first username: Gofer...I kinda liked Blitzwing better than Glowsquid, but that's just me). I've hijacked Tucayo's wiki collaboration regarding relocating in-game text content from the template to the article, with express approval from him of course. Can't wait to finish the hard ones and set up the list so the wiki collaboration can finally be done. -- 23:58, 25 May 2013 (EDT)

RE: Staff activity
Hello RAP. I discussed your message with the other admins, and I am responding on behalf of the staff. The Wiki Collaborations board is indeed frequented, but some projects may simply receive minimal input, whether it's because of a lack of time, motivation, or knowledge about the subject. There isn't an issue with the level activity of the staff, and such concerns shouldn't really be posted in public. We appreciate your enthusiasm in bumping older projects to try and reform collaborations and fulfil goals, but please be less intrusive when it comes to asking people for responses to posts. Thanks.

 * Oh...okay. Sorry... . . . -- 07:13, 3 July 2013 (EDT) Acting like a rather energetic Pinkie Pie at times. I feel sorry for you guys for fearing me for my enthusiasm potentially being destructive. Though being alone, if I have to be honest, I actually kinda want to talk to someone...that's why I tried gathering attention from you guys to make chat and have a conversation. Sigh...

Userspace Policy
As per Userspace Policy, I don't think you are allowed for: Please build those subpages into the User:RAP itself, and then tag them for deleting. -- 01:43, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
 * User:RAP/S/1-Status
 * User:RAP/S/2-Joined
 * User:RAP/S/3-Contact
 * User:RAP/S/4-About Me
 * User:RAP/S/5-Records
 * User:RAP/S/6-Userspace
 * Is there any way to implement subsections but the text is invisible or completely hidden, yet lets me edit the sections seperately? It'll be like List of Tayce T. Recipes but more complicated. I can plug in a new table with dedicated edit buttons to those particular sections. -- 02:10, 4 July 2013 (EDT) I'll definitely do it around Saturday, assuming that I'm not preoccupied, and that I have to do creative thinking if this idea I made is not possible because I don't want to edit the whole page each time.
 * You could build User:RAP/S/2-Joined, User:RAP/S/3-Contact, User:RAP/S/4-About Me and User:RAP/S/5-Records.. on your userpage..(because they won't be changed much) and keep User:RAP/S/1-Status (but use it on the top of your talk). You can keep User:RAP/S/6-Userspace (but use it on the bottom of every other page of your userspace)

-- 02:16, 4 July 2013 (EDT)
 * Done (even though I said I would do it on Saturday). That was a lot of hard work. I actually managed to executive the idea perfectly with flying colors; with little to no hiccups at the very end. Check the userpage! -- 05:22, 4 July 2013 (EDT)

A wiki chat with the one and only !
-- 09:41, 11 July 2013 (EDT) -- 03:44, 12 July 2013 (EDT)
 * It is very good, I just feel like I'm looking into 3D files. Good work.
 * Oh, I answered your question here, however I couldn't find 3DS mic icon at all. If you could provide it, I could Implement it.
 * Why do you have many headers (1,2,3,etc.) for your talk?, any one can just make a new easily.
 * What is your name based on? R A P
 * Could you describe this for me?
 * Why not make File:RAP.png Transparent? so it will show on all other themes. Like my Night-Owl theme
 * Empty headers
 * It's due to the type of discussion setup.
 * Four of them are in order: Banter, File, NIWA, and Wiki discussion.
 * My username
 * Based on my initials
 * Wanted to permanently change it to something else.
 * "Raw Data" page
 * It's supposed to be a wiki collaboration dedicated to mining data and put it into the wiki.
 * I was also thinking of having a dedicated team with flexibility on responsibilities on: data mining, info communication (how the info is displayed), and info content.
 * Due to lack of activity or assistance from potential participants at the time, I held off and stopped updating it (main reason).
 * Another reason is the lack of article structure standards; it's simply infuriating (secondary reason).
 * With tons of links leftover, with NIWA in mind (Nintendo wikis and StrategyWiki) I decided to expand from Mario content to Nintendo content, and then expanded to video game content. Having tons of content, sharing the lists publicly would undermine my work over the past couple of years within minutes.
 * Unlikely to relaunch it again as of now. That's saddening; I found a ton of obscure stuff I still didn't go into yet; I remember seeing Mario Party N64 beta content with footage, a japanese Mario dictionary database, and countless merchandise that leaves the Merchandise yet to be updated.
 * Also applies to the Mario Party series mini-game articles wiki collaboration.
 * I didn't put transparency on the image because I didn't know how to at the time; you could do it if you want but I'll change it to something else.
 * No problem, I added transparent for you. And I bet you know but, you could enlarge your image a bit more if you want. You could replace  with  . And you will be still adhering to the rules. P.S: Are/Were you a sysop?-- 09:44, 12 July 2013 (EDT)
 * How does adding an "x" before the #px change anything? I'm curious to be frank. Yes, I was previously a sysop. -- 02:13, 13 July 2013 (EDT)
 * Sorry for late response, "35px" changes the width. "x35px" changes the height. and you are limited to 35 pixels in height not width. You used "20px" because if you used "35px" it would be large.


 * -- 09:10, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
 * Just asking, I'm now making a program to compress images, which will be probably easier in usage. Would you be the first one to use it?
 * -- 16:49, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
 * Easier, not necessarily improving compression (wouldn't mind making compresion process faster, or have new compression techniques; especially on larger images)? Gaining some interest; what makes it better than the one I'm using (PNG Monster)? -- 16:55, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
 * I will add Many compressing options, Here is a list of what I'm currently planning:

Do you have any suggestion?
 * better explaining error messages
 * Reading Files:
 * A BROWSE button to choose files from.
 * Drag n' drop into the program itself.
 * Make the program read files inside the same folder as the program.
 * Portable: 1 file only!
 * An option to backup file if you want.

Template Renaming
Er, you might wanna check back on the Wiki Collabs thread before you sink too much time into that Gadd/Gaddget template converting: technically, it should all just be merged into ... - 15:39, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
