Alder
Erm, can I please have my kit image? I honestly could have sworn I commented, but apparently my comment didn't publish on the tweak nomination page. =/ I think my internet crapped out or something... but I did very much want that.

Sparrowpelt
I don't know if you noticed or not, but I actually did very heavily state that I wanted to design Sparrowpelt's pattern. Both the section itself and the comments are very clear with that- I nominated it because I wanted to do better on the image, and it had issues that needed fixing. Like, I'm not trying to be an ass, but I did have both the kittypet and the warrior reserved days before you, and I was the one who nominated the images. I wouldn't have nominated those images otherwise. =/

Ahhh thank you! I'll give you the file when I get home. I'm at a Shinedown concert.

Re:
Well, I can't exactly send it if I don't have an email to send it to.

I think they would be two different tutorials, considering their difference. 23:56, November 22, 2015 (UTC)

Of course! All senior warriors are welcome to help, as I said on the Charart talk page. 01:26, November 23, 2015 (UTC)

Re:
I'm afraid the file is distorted due to colouring and stuff. You won't get the colors from it, you'll only be able to see how it is done, but you cannot color pick or anything else as the file isn't correct, (texture layers, etc). The colors were diluted separately. Sorry! 05:46, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

Her USB crashed a couple of weeks ago, so if you're asking her, be prepared for her to not have it. 05:49, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

I think it's a layer of darker texture over the base, then a layer of more saturated texture. You add your black patches, pale parts, and then have a layer of lighter texture over it. I think... 05:54, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

Perhaps I would attempt to match it, then send that file to you? i honestly don't even have the layers anymore... 06:02, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

Okay, I just tried to do it but i cannot even match my own pattern >.< you're on your own, I'm afraid. 06:39, November 28, 2015 (UTC)

Re:Turtle Tail
That's actually not how it looks to me without the extra break. See, I think the problem is having "formerly" in that part of the template. I think we should probably just remove that and keep it in the "kin" section only... I've noticed that the specific issue we come across is normally because of that.

Categories
Stealth, "mentioned" characters and "allegiance only" characters are two different things. They're part of the same category system here and shouldn't overlap. The mentioned category should be for characters like Henry, Wee Hen, Reena, ect. They were mentioned in the storyline, but don't fit anything else. It's not for allegiance only characters, as they're not mentioned anywhere in the story and have their own category for it...

Re:
I'm actually going to go in a few minutes. If you want to do it now you can but possibly I can do it when I come home. 20:54, December 15, 2015 (UTC)

Three new categories
Alright, so I was doing my normal "browsing the uncategorized images" thing, and I was absoltely disgusted with the amount of images we have in there- especially ones that are being used on articles- such as prey, or the animal articles, or even ones used on the Warriors App page. So, I took it upon myself to make three more categories for this, and I figured I should throw them your way, so you have them for future reference. Obviously, I'm not done adding images to the categories, but I've gotten started.

Re:
I'm glad that vote passed. Judging females by eyelashes is downright asinine. I'll handle it in the morning if no one else takes care of it by then.

Re:
Done. Not sure if I got the right categories on the redirect page, though.

Ding Dong
I can't think of a proper heading lmao

Okay, so, for that page.. I think just "Warriors Wiki" would be appropriate. Not sure what else would even work for that, actually... As for the book covers, I've been putting them all under "Book cover images" for the time being, until I can go through and properly organize them even further. The PCA images should remain category-less, imo, because we've only added categories once they get approved. I don't want to start getting people confused, due to categories being added before they're approved. And some of them aren't on the approval page long enough to properly make use of a "pending approval" category or something along those lines.

Also, I've been working on a "little" project based on something I made last year, and I'm insanely proud of what I've done so far. Do you have any suggestions on what should be added? I'm not sure if I want to go into detail for each project's guidelines, but it might be worth it to have a basic outline for each of them, perhaps?

Hey, just as a head's up, don't tag File:Brambleclaw.gif for deletion. It's PCA's first charart ever and we keep it around for the fun of it. A lot of the older members (like Icy and I), love to look back and see how the project's improved since then, so it stays on the wiki.

Project Characters
Hi! I'm a really new user and I see that you're leader of Project Characters. I'm really interested in editing the wiki's articles, and I just sent a message to Appledash asking questions about Project Books. I hope it's okay that I'm asking you a few questions before I join your project. How do I cite sources, and where do I put them in a character article? How do I know which quotes should be used? How long is a character article supposed to be? Get back to me anytime! Thank you! Starlingfur (talk) 02:32, December 28, 2015 (UTC)

Charart Requesr
Hey Stealthfire! I was wondering if you could make me a charart request, if you're available.

1. Blank (Ancient, Warrior, kit etc): StarClan

2. Fur length (long-haired or short-haired): Long-haired

3. Gender (Male or Female): N/A

4. Eye Colour (blue, green, amber, yellow etc): Clear blue

6. Extras (scars, ruffled fur, torn ears, stumpy tail etc): None

7. Other (optional): None :D

Thanks! Could you upload it over my personal? Have a good day :D 07:29, December 28, 2015 (UTC)

Thank you so much! She looks so pretty :D 23:21, December 28, 2015 (UTC)

nowiki tags
Can you please remember to use the nowiki tags on the images every time you decline them? I believe you have been told this before...

You are still forgetting to use the nowiki tags. Can you /please/ remember to use them when you decline an image? Thanks.

Check my message on Burntclaw's talk page. 23:01, December 31, 2015 (UTC)

Charat Requests
So you'll make people charat pictures, whether they have anything to do with this wiki or not? Am I getting this correctly? Because if so... I'd like quite a few. If course it would be easier for you to simply mentor me I think. I do have paint.netWarriorcat1195 (talk) 17:59, January 1, 2016 (UTC)

Also I just have to point out I love that you put a Santa hat on your profile picture. So adorable! :) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 18:01, January 1, 2016 (UTC)

In that case, I think I'll take a mentor. While I'm certain that it will take a while, but I trust I'll get there eventually with help. I want pictures for my own wiki, and if I made them myself.... Will it be a problem that we're on opposite sides of the world, though? When I messaged you earlier, it was noon for me, and for you it was five in the morning, and it's still New Year's Day for me. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 03:38, January 2, 2016 (UTC)

My wiki is the Warriors Fan-Fiction Area Wikia (I was trying to find a name that wasn't already taken). It's basically this wiki, but for fanfictions instead. I'd love if more people decided to join. I have over 100 pages (all made by myself), literally 5 people read it (including myself), and only 2 have accounts on wikia (still including myself). Of course, I did make the wiki a month or two ago, so it hasn't really had time to become popular. I also have roleplay, which is where about half of the 100 pages comes from XD. You should check it out--I'm rather proud of what I've done so far, and it's nowhere near done! (If you join I might make you an admin! If I can figure out how to make people admins... :/) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 17:04, January 2, 2016 (UTC)

If you look at my profile, the link to my wiki is under "Favorite Wikis". Just so you know :)Warriorcat1195 (talk) 19:39, January 3, 2016 (UTC)

I have paint.net v4.0.6. I don't know if that's the newest or not. However, I'm not sure my parents would approve of me downloading things just for Warriors. They're not particually pleased about my obssession with it. Anyway, I think I can start my charat mentoring now. However, after winter break is when we start getting serious about the big school test in April, so I might have homework.

Also, it doesn't matter if you post your fanfictions or not, just having you as part of the wiki would be great. I need charat pictures (right now they're just pics from Google. You can only search for things so-detailed, you know?) and family trees (could not figure it out) and infoboxes (couldn't figure that out, either). Of course, something nice I've noticed about not having the insane coding for the templates is that it turns out much nicer on mobile. On desktop it looks a lot worse than this wiki, but on mobile it looks a whole lot better. Like, for this wiki, for the infoboxes on my phone it's just a bunch of illegible code. I mean, I can sort of make it out, but it's not the neat infobox. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:40, January 4, 2016 (UTC)

I did my charat picture using the instructions (personally for a first try I think it came out well) but when I went to save it as a .png both the website you told me to save it to and my computer said "sorry we do not support this file". Now what? I only have it as a .pdn, and that's in layers, not flattened. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 23:54, January 5, 2016 (UTC)

Also, perhaps for my wiki you could just do 4 charats please...? One of my friends asked me to post their character, and the description is a little detailed, I don't think I could do it. Just those four... the others should be fairly simple, and with a bit of practice I think I'll be able to do those myself. The character named Splashfoot, apprentice, warrior, deputy, leader... that's it. I can do the rest. Please consider this. Thank you! Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:00, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

I can't even open the .png. The computer won't let me. It simply says sorry we don't support this file. It's just an icon on my desktop, not an actual file. But I can open the .pdn. I do have two files, it's just only one is openable. :/ Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:02, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

If you zoom in theatretically you could copy pixel by pixel without actually copying it. Or is that not allowed? I might be able to think of something. If you have ideas of your own that would be great. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:06, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

I have Windows 10. I haven't restarted the computer, but I could keep the .png file and resave it as a .jpeg, and then try the .png tomorrow. It's almost time for me to get ready for bed, anyway. It takes me an hour, and I like having an extra hour to play a game or something with my family. Plus I'm young and it's a school night. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:11, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

Okay apparently it doesn't like .jpeg files either. It says "It looks like we don't support this file format". So........ I'm lost here. I'll check Google, but my computer might be cursed. The other week my power brick died and the computer has a really short battery life. Also it needs a ridiculous amount of energy. So, yeah. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:13, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

Once I added something to the talk page of Pinestar, I didn't get a response for like 3 weeks! I finally went and edited myself, but then someone undid it and finally explained to me why. Usually I get a response within an hour! Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:16, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

Also, I'll let you know if I have a vacation coming up, because then I probably wouldn't be able to reply for a week or so. But lately our vacations have just been weekend trips.Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:17, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

GOOGLE ISN'T HELPING!!!! :'( why must computers be so complicated? Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:20, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

I just did this one, it's not the one I did off the website, and it doesn't have multiple layers, it's just basic color-it-in, you know? (And I did take extra time to color inside the lines :)) I think it's cute. It's based off a character in my fanfiction: Furrypelt. This one is the kit version, so either kittypet/Furrykit (she moved to the Clans when she was 2 moons) I think I needed a lighter orange. This is too dark. Dang it, I didn't realize that! Now if you excuse me, I should've gotten in the shower half an hour ago. Goodnight! Warriorcat1195 (talk) 00:56, January 6, 2016 (UTC)



I found a way to merge layers on paint.net, but it's still a .pdn, and it won't open with Windows Photo Viewer. This kit here does, and it's listed as a .png. That was automatic. But if I change the .pdn to a .png it doesn't work. It has to be a single layer or it's only openable in paint.net. So........ suggestions? Personally I think this single-layered kit came out pretty well. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:03, January 6, 2016 (UTC)

For my wiki, it's literally like this one. The book itself doesn't go on, just information about it, but there is another wiki I personally like that allows fanfictions. If you look under "Favorite wikis", the Fan-Fiction Area is mine, and "Warriors Fanfiction" is where you should post the fanfiction itself.Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:07, January 7, 2016 (UTC)

I just figured out that if I merge the layers on paint.net without saving it beforehand, it automatically saves as an openable .png! Here's the practice one I just did, it's Furrykit, but with the correct fur color, and I did some blurring. I'll try the instructions off the website again. I tried shading on this one, but because I have multiple colors it looked awful. Is that step 2?Warriorcat1195 (talk) 19:52, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Layers are kind of important to keep, but I do have another way in mind. Might be annoying, but it should work. Anyway, do not use thumb or I cannot see the image properly. Make sure you only blur the ginger, not the lineart or eyes. I suggest next to work on shading. 20:03, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Oh, sorry! Didn't know that. Yeah, I do need to work on shading, and I did blur the lineart, but personally I don't think it looks bad, at least not terrible.

I have the layers so I can do it correctly, but at the end, I simply merge them. You know saving it as a .png would flatten the image? That's all I'm doing--just manually so it actually works. If you want something done right, you gotta do it yourself. -sigh-.

Alright, I can't make that website link you sent me work, but I do have Dropbox, so I could send a link there. You won't be able to see anything else I have--just that file. And you don't need Dropbox. Here, I'll send you the link now. https://www.dropbox.com/s/dxu4aczuwxrpxwi/Practice%20kit.png?dl=0 Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:17, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Alright, I have to warn you, zooming in makes it blurry, so click on the image, use ctrl plus + to zoom in to 500%, then zoom in on the image to around 300%. Sorry it's complicated, but I'm young and I'm terrible with computers! I'm trying to find the easy way out (as always) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:22, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

I cannot see it. Try tinypic instead. 20:29, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Alright, try this then.      Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:32, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Ya know what, I have no idea how this stuff works apparently. Sorry if I'm annoying you... like I said I'm terrible with computers. So far the only ways I've been able to send it are straight to your talk page, Dropbox, or e-mail. These are the options here..... Thoughts? Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:39, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Okay, I'm going to assume that the links work for you but not me and just send this tweaked version.    Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:45, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Do you want them nearly black or something? Because personally I think it looks wrong. Well, I see how the ears look wrong. on my desktop I see this black figure with two tiny ears and really bright ears that really stand out, so I think I see your point ''there. ''But I can barely see the nose! But, you're the expert. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 20:51, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

It just looks a tad neon for a nose. Black noses I usually incredibly dark, sometimes with a pink shade to it. It's too pink for a black cat right now. 21:06, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Okay, I'm on it. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:08, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Here, how about now?              Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:12, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

Hey, out of curiosity, what time is it for you? I'm just curious because you send me emails in the middle of the night. (don't worry, I never actually hear my phone go off, so you don't keep me up :)) If my math is correct, it's around 9:00AM for you. of course, I might be terrible at math. Right now it's 4 in the afternoon for me. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:15, January 10, 2016 (UTC)

So... what's my next assignment? Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:11, January 13, 2016 (UTC)

I thought I did do the shading.....? I know I did it, and I blurred it, as it instructed to. So................ do you want me to do it again...? Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:02, January 14, 2016 (UTC)

You see, those instructions you sent me told me to do it at 30 but not over. Granted it did say she had an older version, so it is possible the blur tool is more sensative in the new update or something. I'll go do it again. Warriorcat1195 (talk) 22:53, January 14, 2016 (UTC)

Ok, that makes sense. So, how does this look? http://feed3.tinypic.com/rss.php?u=j%2BJYvcwGG7ketKgFNwjHBQ%3D%3D  Warriorcat1195 (talk) 23:30, January 14, 2016 (UTC)

Alright, you've got to teach me tabbies and shading. Also,  I did some pictures without shading just for fun to represent the different roles my fanfic character has made. I would've done others but they're all tabbies and things :/ What do you think? I can tell you right now they need work, but are they cute? http://i63.tinypic.com/21m9g7d.jpg  (kit version) http://i65.tinypic.com/33nxq4w.jpg (mca version) http://i65.tinypic.com/w03ihy.jpg (apprentice version) http://i65.tinypic.com/242izyw.jpg (queen version) http://i65.tinypic.com/242izyw.jpg (medicine cat version) http://i63.tinypic.com/33ehi5v.jpg (kittypet version) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 16:32, January 30, 2016 (UTC)

Your Userpage
Hi Stealthfire,

I was wondering how you managed to get your userpage to be so organized. For mine, I have several sets of 'tabber' things like yours does, but then the alignment for mine is all messed up for the second and third tabbers, when yours is all neat and organized. How did you make it so neat? :3 Thanks,

Charart Request
I understand you're busy mentoring people and working on my wiki, but since I'm not fully trained, do you think you could do a charart for me? I feel like my profile page needs something.

1. Kittypet

2. shorthaired

3. female

4. bright blue

5. ginger tabby with white paws

6. none

7. rainbow collar

Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:37, January 23, 2016 (UTC)

I was thinking classic tabby pattern. Also, just a small note, if it's not too much trouble, could you use a bit of a brighter orange? Thanks! :) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 21:19, January 28, 2016 (UTC)

It's ADORABLE! Thank you!!!!!!! :) Warriorcat1195 (talk) 16:21, January 30, 2016 (UTC)

Ravenpaw's Farewell
Midnight on the wiki clock is midnight on the wiki clock. According to the clock, it is officially 26 January, meaning that you're allowed to add anything your heart desires. (just don't do anything with Cloudpaw- I want to do her article ;.;)

Character Traits
I noticed you have a list of character traits relating to those of the Warrior cats. Here's my question: do you know where I could find a list of those? because I want to add them to my userpage, but I'd only be able to use a few of the ones you put, and there must be more. But with my luck it'd be like what I did with my opinions about the characters--I put down a Warriors pet peeves down for someone I didn't like that much and it said "this user thinks wrong argument". So if there's a list of what I can choose from..... Warriorcat1195 (talk) 16:38, January 30, 2016 (UTC)

Wikicode
Hello!

So, I was on chat and a lot of people said you knew wikicode really well, and they thought you might be able to be my 'unofficial' wikicode mentor? I'd really like to have you as a mentor, and since I don't do PCA, and I love coding...Could you be my 'mentor'? As I stated above, totally unoffical since there is no mentoring program for wikicode(although there should be). 1:53, February 7, 2016 (UTC)
