Edits
Hi there! While we appreciate your willingness to edit and provide us with summaries, I'm going to have to ask you to write your summaries from here on out in present tense, instead of past. Below is a fictional example (that doesn't actually happen in the books):

Past tense would be something like this:
 * Cloudtail returned from hunting with Firestar and Brightheart, and he looked very proud of his catch. He bragged to his entire Clan about the size of his prey.

Present tense would be something along the lines of this:
 * Cloudtail returns from hunting with Firestar and Brightheart, and he looks very proud of his catch. He boasts to his entire Clan about the size of his prey.

We basically have to write the articles as if they're happening right now- just like they're written in the books themselves. Otherwise, someone will come along and change the edits along with other things you've done. If you have questions, please don't be afraid to ask. =)

Mentor
Hey. Hey friend. I was wondering, do you still want a mentor? I have to wait for my request to get approved, but if/when it does, would you like to be my first apprentice? Currently I only use GIMP, but I can try PAINT.NET (not sure if it will install on my computer though, I use Linux) 9:21 PM, Sun Oct 19, 2014

Yes please! I just need help with more advanced stuff. (Texture, tabbies etc.) --Stealthfire star (talk) 21:27, October 19, 2014 (UTC)

Okay! I wasn't able to get paint.net to work on my computer, but I have GIMP, so are you okay with that or do you want to see if they're compatible to each other? Also, please leave messages on my talk page, it makes it easier for me to see them. I'll try to get back to you once my mentor request is approved (hopefully it is) 9:44 PM, Sun Oct 19, 2014

Woo! Okay, I'll start working on planning lessons. Instead of using the wikia, what I'll have you do is upload the pictures to either ezimba.com or tinypic. Also great job on that cat! I think we'll work on him a bit more first, so just shoot me a message once you get this! :) 10:22 AM, Mon Oct 20, 2014

Okay, so we'll start out with the black cat you just made. So, darken the base coat to about hex code #171717, remove the block of waste between the leg and back foot, and define the shading a little bit. 9:32 PM, Mon Oct 20, 2014

Awww don't frowny face! He looks great! Define the tail and leg shading a little bit more. Also, do you have your earpink over or under your shading layers? There's nothing wrong with it, I'd just like to see it differently to figure out which looks better. :) 10:13 PM, Mon Oct 20, 2014

Just got my mentor request approved~! 11:39 PM, Mon Oct 20, 2014

Okay, not bad! Define the edges of all of the shading a little more, and make sure you save the files as both an XCF (or whatever the PAINT.NET extension is), and a PNG, because it makes the image transparent and saves it as full quality. As for getting images to show, I'm not sure I can help you there. 1:18 PM, Tue Oct 21, 2014

Okay, I think that image is looking really good now, nice job! Next, make a cream cat in the longhair warrior blank. 10:36 PM, Tue Oct 21, 2014

Doesn't matter to me. Whichever program you want to focus on works for me. One question though, Paint.NET has Gaussian blur, right? 11:05 PM, Tue Oct 21, 2014

Okay cool. I'm not good at smudged shading so don't worry about that. 12:09 AM, Wed Oct 22, 2014

Okay so remove that bit of shading on the chest, smooth out the rest of the shading, define the feet light, and flip the tail shading so --> side of the tail is in shadow. 12:00 PM, Wed Oct 22, 2014

Ahh, okay, I see what you're doing. So, with that source, take a look at this redline, and add shading in the areas circled in red, and define the shading on areas circled in purple. I circled the part of the tail because the one problem with blurred shading is it'll sometimes (aka mostly always) leak away from the lineart, and in that spot it's fairly noticeable. The feet and legs are hard to do on these blanks, so don't worry about it if the shading blurs more than you'd like, I'm just being a little nitpicky here. ;) 10:33 PM, Wed Oct 22, 2014

Add a little more shading to the base and --> side of the tail, and define the shading on the lower chest. 11:55 AM, Thu Oct 23, 2014

Lighten up the tail shading some and this'll be good. 10:34 PM, Thu Oct 23, 2014

Lighten up all the shading. 6:10 PM, Fri Oct 24, 2014

No, just lower the opacity of your shading layers. 9:48 PM, Fri Oct 24, 2014

Lighten it up just a little bit more and we'll move onto the next one. Good job with the base coat, btw, it's not too yellow/green but it's not brown either. I'll take it that you've used PAINT.NET for these two so we'll go to GIMP for the next two. Sound good? <span style="">11:38 PM, Fri Oct 24, 2014

Alright next make a light silvery-gray shorthair tom in the leader blank. The reason I'm having you use GIMP is because the more programs you use, the more you'll be able to help others (if you ever decide to mentor) and you'll also not need to rely on one or two computers (I use a Chromebook and a Lenovo, and the Lenovo is a desktop (it's my GIMP computer, I never used Pixlr.) so I can't just send myself the xcf and work with it on my laptop) <span style="">12:24 AM, Sat Oct 25, 2014

Remove that bit of shading from <-- leg and define the edges a bit. Also, try smudging the earpink into the ear a little bit or blurring, it looks a little solid. <span style="">7:30 PM, Sat Oct 25, 2014

Try uploading to ezimba.com. As for critique: I think I might just use redlines forever now Remove the shading circled in red, smooth and define the shading in blue, remove the earpink in yellow, and add a little more shading in the green (there's a little bit leaking away from the lineart) <span style="">11:01 PM, Sat Oct 25, 2014

*nudge* <span style="">3:21 PM, Sat Nov 1, 2014

Oh carp my bad, I'm sorry! Just try to remove the rest of the waste on the top of <-- leg the best you can and we'll move on. (also have you seen the new shading placement chart yet? It's amazing!) <span style="">3:46 PM, Sun Nov 2, 2014

Hey there, I just wanted to let you know that I'm not sure how long I'm going to be staying here (due to several things that were said off-wiki), so I figured I'd warn you. Obviously I'll let you know if I'm leaving for good or not, but if I'm removed from PCA I won't be able to be your official mentor (I can still mentor you, it'll just be like it was before I was accepted into the mentor program) <span style="">6:33 PM, Sun Nov 2, 2014

Mentor
Hi! Someone has requested to be your mentor, so please head on over to the mentor program the accept so it can be official! 23:46, October 20, 2014 (UTC)

wow
Hey, I just wanted to come by and say wow, your expansion of Reena was amazing. Thanks for helping out PC! Keep up the great work! 18:03, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

Thankyou! I'm glad to help out. :) --Stealthfire star (talk) 21:04, November 16, 2014 (UTC)

How did you do the Charavter info thing?

That Age, Names, Family, ...GeometryCraft (talk) 14:35, November 23, 2014 (UTC)

[|This link] is a tutorial I looked up. I can teach you instead if you find it confusing. :) --Stealthfire star (talk) 21:12, November 23, 2014 (UTC)

Personal Images
Hey there!! I noticed you tried to put two personal images on your userpage. Please keep in mind that you can only have one, as per the image policy!

Happy New Year
Hi Stealthfire ^^ just popping in to say happy new year! ~ Burntclaw Yolo ♫ ♪ 05:56, January 2, 2015 (UTC)

Userboxes
Hi. I am Echo, and I am new.

I noticed you have userboxes on your profile page. Please can you tell me how to get them? I am a huge fan of warriors.

Thank you

Echo1508 (talk) 23:55, January 12, 2015 (UTC)

Hello! Welcome to the Warrior wiki. :) If you look on projects main page and scroll down, you'll see templates for them. Just copy and paste to your user page and voila! --Stealthfire star (talk) 02:22, January 13, 2015 (UTC)

I tried copying and pasting the code into source editor, but when I published the page it turned to a bunch of random letters and codes. I don't understand? Please can you help? – Echo1508 (talk) 05:03, January 15, 2015 (UTC)

Hmm. That's odd. Which one are you trying to do? --Stealthfire star (talk) 05:14, January 15, 2015 (UTC)

The personal description ones... most of them except for the traits. I am using an Apple computer, so that might be the reason... but my friend also used an Apple computer and it worked for her. – Echo1508 (talk) 08:01, January 15, 2015 (UTC)

Hmm, maybe restart your computer or check your internet. At first with my computer, it took time for it to get used to all the coding. --Stealthfire star (talk) 08:42, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
