:That'd be great! I have no clue what I'm doing really lol. I tried copying the format of ZW and it didn't work, then I tried the one from WiKirby and after some revising I got it to look decent, but it's a total sham. The boxes won't line up independent of the left or right sides as they would on any other wiki. TTE told me to rework it as a table to get the results of the BP mainpage, but I don't even know where to begin doing that. I've also looked for more flair images to put in headers, but I only have limited Wars knowledge. The actual DoR site gave me some ideas to use pics like barbwire or something. And lastly, I was wanting to pull a total SEO scam and have the games template on the page. I was thinking to rework it somehow, add an image to it, but basically have the links to all of the games. This would create a void of space, since it's rather small, so filling that would be needed too.[[User:Axiomist|Axiomist]] 17:55, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

::No problem, I'm happy to help!  It's probably easiest to set it up similar to BP's Main Page, with no "exposed" text, just a handful of templates.  That way, to update the News section, for example, you'd only need to add a bit to that individual template, rather than hunt through the page's code.  I'm working through the templates BP uses on their page now to get some ideas.  I like the barbed wire thing, I also considered looking for static DoR unit images, like some members in the Forums have.  Ok, I'll be back!  — [[User:KC-Earthshaker|<sup style="color:#7038F8"><b>K</b></sup>]][[User Talk:KC-Earthshaker|<span style="color:#7038F8"><b><small>C</small></b></span>]] 01:29, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello

I just stumbled across Moydow's talk page, and wanted to offer my help with the Main Page overhaul. It's looking really good, but I'm here if you need me. =) — KC 16:39, 24 July 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That'd be great! I have no clue what I'm doing really lol. I tried copying the format of ZW and it didn't work, then I tried the one from WiKirby and after some revising I got it to look decent, but it's a total sham. The boxes won't line up independent of the left or right sides as they would on any other wiki. TTE told me to rework it as a table to get the results of the BP mainpage, but I don't even know where to begin doing that. I've also looked for more flair images to put in headers, but I only have limited Wars knowledge. The actual DoR site gave me some ideas to use pics like barbwire or something. And lastly, I was wanting to pull a total SEO scam and have the games template on the page. I was thinking to rework it somehow, add an image to it, but basically have the links to all of the games.

No problem, I'm happy to help! It's probably easiest to set it up similar to BP's Main Page, with no "exposed" text, just a handful of templates. That way, to update the News section, for example, you'd only need to add a bit to that individual template, rather than hunt through the page's code. I'm working through the templates BP uses on their page now to get some ideas. I like the barbed wire thing, I also considered looking for static DoR unit images, like some members in the Forums have. Ok, I'll be back! — KC 01:29, 25 July 2010 (UTC)Reply[reply]
