Redtail (D)~ Redone
Needed to be redone as a long hair. Original artist is PockyStar. Comments? 04:22, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

It did not need to be redone. All we would have to do is change the tail. That was totally unnecessary. The images were completely fine, it just needed to be long-haired. Please just take the old one and make it long-haired instead of making a new one, same goes for the warrior. Posting a totally new one would mean an entire approval process, which we simply do not have time for. The old images were already approved and looked fine, it was just the tail. Having the images redone is far more time consuming. 04:27, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

It needs to be redone, and if you had an issue with it you should have brought it up on the forum. No one else disagreed. 04:32, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Where was it said that it needed to be redone...Ugh. Can you please give me a link to the forum where it was said that he needed to be redone? Anyways, take off the brown, as tortoiseshell cats cannot possibly have brown markings, and the smudging is really wonky. A cat's fur goes in one direction, and smudging creates a furry texture. The smudging shouldn't go out every which way. Move the ear pink up in his ear, darken/desturate it and darken the shading. Remove the mottled spots on his tail. 05:04, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Oh and remove the random little white spots. That is also not possible on a cat and it just looks strange anyways. 05:05, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I think ALL the white should be removed. It says on his page he's a DARK tortoiseshell, like Tawnypelt, not a tortoiseshell and white. And he does need to be redone. He needs to be dappled, given feathered ears (he still needs those BTW), made a DARK tortoiseshell plus he needs to be long haired. This is absolutely GORGEOUS though. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 08:48, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Redtail (W)~ Redone
Needed to be redone as a long hair. Original artist is Insanular. Comments? 04:22, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

He is a DARK tortie, get rid of ALL the white, and give him dapples, and see if you can fiugre out how to 'feather' his ears. other than that, very nice. Maple♥ pool  School? Pfft. SUMMERTIME! 14:37, July 7, 2011 (UTC).

Make the smudging smoother. Nice job. :] 15:14, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Adderfang (W) - Redone
I had a hard time findin' the right colour for shading. xD Comments? 05:00, July 7, 2011 (UTC) Edit: Honeyfur was the original artist; needed it to match the deputy picture. 17:01, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

<-- Change some of the stripes to spots. -- 05:42, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Reuploaded, not sure if the changes showed. xD 05:47, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

You were supposed to state the original artist and what needed to be done tsk tsk. You might want to check out the rules again;). 16:54, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I've always been quite the rule breaker. ;D 17:01, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Echosong (MC) - Redone
Dear Y Striped Tabbies, I will kill you. D:< Anyways, comments? xD 05:29, July 7, 2011 (UTC) Edit: Redone as longhair, and it needed a white chest. Original artist is Bramble, I believe.. o.o 17:02, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Blur the shading, blur the transitions between the dark gray and silver, move the ear pink up in her ear. 05:34, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Reploaded. 05:40, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Smudge the white chest. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 08:45, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Ooh, I like this! Blur the shading.  ☆ Snowdazzle ☆ I hate that llama 11:03, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Darken the earpink a tad. Maple♥ pool  School? Pfft. SUMMERTIME! 14:40, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

'''Reuploaded. 15:13, July 7, 2011 (UTC)'''

Maybe blur more of the shading on the chest. Sa lc  ie  15:24, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think the shading needs to be blurred more on the chest. 17:12, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Can you maybe lighten the chest shading so it looks more white? And make the earpink a little bigger. Looks great! :3 17:41, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Reuploaded. 17:50, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

The chest marking looks a little too circular, could you smudge it or blur it a little? Overall, though, you did a really nice job :D Darkhallows   Enter the cave? 17:55, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree with Darkhallows, smudge it some :3 Maybe make the earpink a tad more triangular as well? 18:01, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Reuploaded. Not sure if the changse showed. ;3 18:25, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Hollyleaf (W) - Redone
Comments? ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 05:57, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Blur the shading a lot. 07:24, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Reuploaded - Done. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 07:30, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

You were supposed to state the original artist and what needed tweaking, and you might want to check out the rules for posting again. Blur the shading a bit more. 16:56, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think there was an original artist for this one, it's just a whole new piece. You made her into a long-haired female in lieu of a short haired, right?

Ya but it should be reuploaded right over the old image so there is an older one that somebody made. 18:38, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Hollyleaf (MCA) - Redone
Like her warrior, she needed to be long haired. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 05:57, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

The earpink extends to the top of her ear a little too much. Darkhallows  Enter the cave? 17:57, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Snowfur (A) - Redone
I'm pretty proud of this. 18:39, July 7, 2011 (UTC) Re-uploaded: In regards to the comment below. 19:02, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Milkfur (WC) (D) - Redone
I'm proud of this too. 18:57, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Give her the dark gray ear-tips, and blur the highlights and shading a tad, other than that, good job. Maple♥ pool  School? Pfft. SUMMERTIME! 18:57, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Make him more of an off-white. 19:10, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Owlstar (SotC) (L) - Tweaked
So, I tweaked it, but I still don't think it looks right. Suggestions, anyone? And yes, I am aware of the gray around Owlstar, I'll take care of that later on - I just wanted opinions on how it looks otherwise.  Law liet  Ta lk 18:58, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Blur the shading. 19:06, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Make the nose gray. 19:08, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Ivypool (A) - Redone
I just realized there's gray around her... xD I'll fix that in the next reupload. Original arist was Darkhallows, and she needed to be redone to match her other images. :3 19:03, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Awesome job. ^.^ Add some stripes on the tail? 19:05, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

The white fur is much darker than her warrior image. Lighten it a bit. Nice job, otherwise. :) 19:09, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

Queen charart guidelines?
I was noticing that there had been a lot of debate over whether Squirrelflight, Leafpool, and Yellowfang would take queen chararts. I was thinking that for a character to earn a queen charart if it's not obvious, that they must: Just a suggestion that popped into my head today. Thoughts? Scarlet wind Step into the Light 23:46, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Have bore kits of their own.
 * It must be known by the clan that they were going to have kits. (I don't think only the cat's mate would count. Like it would have to be common knowledge within the clan, unless they were loners/rogues/etc.)
 * Have been seen in the nursery with their kits.

Great idea! This would definitely help decide. But if the wiki was created before Sunrise was released, wouldn't Squirrelflight have a queen charart? :P 23:51, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

I never knew about that. But images can be removed, I know Adderkit's was removed be we couldn't cite his description. Scarlet wind Step into the Light 23:57, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with Scarletwind! But, I believe we should only do a queen image for Squirrelflight, since she had the rank. And, I know how only she-cats with the rank in the books can only have a queen charart.(example: Brindleface, Ferncloud, and Daisy.) As, she was a queen in The Sight. Moon stream 01:24, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Yellowfang was a queen in Secrets of the Clans, In: Yellowfang speaks: and ungratful son. She should have a queen image.You break the warrior code, I break your spine! 02:36, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Well, none of the cats fit all of the requirements: Squirrelflight never had kits, Leafpool wasn't in the nursery taking care of the kits or was it known in the Clan that she was to have kits, Yellowfang, same as Leafpool. BUT, I still think they should have a queen image. Also, if we do decide to have a queen image for them, is there a way I can reserve it? I'm not sure if I should reserve it until we decide, but I sill want one. 02:45, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Nah, you can't reserve it ahead of time, it's not fair to the other project members. If they nursed or had kits, they should get an image. ~ Mis teh ~ <font color="#87DEDA" face="Segoe Script">Where was I, when the rockets came to life...  05:55, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

Princess has a queen image, even though she wasn't in a clan. I think that any cat that has bore or nurtured kits of their own should have a queen image, otherwise none of the rogues/kittypets/loners would have queen images even though they were seen with kits of their own. 06:36, June 15, 2011 (UTC)

I think all of you make a good point. Squirrelflight should definitely not have a queen image, even though she technically had the rank and did have a nest in the nursery, she never gave birth to kits or was even pregnant (which raises an issue because the queen blanks are pregnant) and she was usually in the warriors' den anyway. But, I do think it would make some sense for Yellowfang and Leafpool to have queen images, sort of. The fact of the matter is, in technical terms, a pregnant she-cat, or a she-cat nursing kittens, is indeed called a queen. In the books, the term "Queen" was used as a rank for she-cats who lived in the nursery, had given birth to kits, and was nursing them. So, it really is just an either/or situation with Yellowfang and Leafpool. Since in the actual Clan, queen is a rank, I don't really think either cat should have a queen image. Night Fall 15:59, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

Agreed, Nightfall. <font color="#f7d86d">♌<font color="#bbd2e5">The Star that cannot Return <font color="#3da3ce"> to the Heavens <font color="#f7d86d">♌ 02:04, June 28, 2011 (UTC)

I think we should watch the wording for the guidlines, because in the case of Foxheart, they believed she was the mother of Brokenkit, and that would almost fall under the Clan knowing. But they shouldn't get pixils either if it is only speculated. 03:57, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think a queen blank is necessary for Foxheart at all. Even though there were rumors in the Clan that she was the mother of Brokenkit, we know that Yellowfang was his mother. I do see your point, though rumors aren't the same as common knowledge. Night Fall 07:37, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Unspecified Tabby Alternates
I know it was decided that unspecified tabbies would get chararts, but do they get alternates? 23:07, June 7, 2011 (UTC)Editing Warriors Wiki talk:Charart (section) - Warrior Cats Wiki - Erin Hunter, Night Whispers, Omen of the Stars

That is a good question. The unspecified tabbies would qualify to the cat's description until they are mentioned (if), But when they are mentioned we would make them a new charart, right? But would the charart already made be...? We wouldn't just...clear it from the page...right? 23:31, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

I don't know...what if the cat was confirmed to be a solid colored cat, but was mistakenly described as an unspecified colored tabby? 23:34, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

well I don't know maybe we could go by the colors the cat already had then add the most realistic ones? 16:44, June 16, 2011 (UTC)

Well what if the color was never mentioned? I guess we could go by the name, like say "Graystorm" was mentioned as a "tabby tom." Then I guess we could infer Graystorm would be gray. But if say "Bramblepelt" was mentioned as a "tom." I guess we would make him a solid colored cat, for no markings were mentioned? 17:18, June 16, 2011 (UTC)

I also have another question for unspecified cats. What if they are mentioned as a "long-furred she-cat." Would they get an unspecified alternate? 17:45, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

Yes they should get alts, its no different from the acctual description, and as for the just long haired thing, it semms like they should get a default, but im not sure. 04:24, June 22, 2011 (UTC)

I personally don't think that cats like the one in the example should get chararts unless they were described with a pattern (like tabby, mottle, spotted, etc.). We'd basically mean giving all characters who weren't really described with a pelt color or anything like it chararts, and we've always been against that as far as I know. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 06:36, June 23, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree to that too. We should only give chararts to ones that were mentioned as a pattern, I assume. "A long furred she-cat" may not be qualified to get an alternate for it was just her gender and fur length mentioned. 16:14, June 23, 2011 (UTC)

For tabby and mottled alternates, though, I think we should do the alts as the color of the actual cat. For example, if a gray cat is mistakenly described as a tabby, it makes sense to make an alt as a gray tabby instead of a brown tabby default. 18:10, July 1, 2011 (UTC)

Tweak Week
You can fing the about it here. Be sure to read all the rules before adding anything. 01:32, June 24, 2011 (UTC)

A few changes
Alright, two new things, first up:

Warrior nominations! We do not have enough warriors at the moment, and with tweak weak approaching we need a little help! Details are on the nominations page.

Second, rejoining users will now be added in as kits unless the user was a warrior or higher. Darkhallows  Enter the cave? 12:03, June 29, 2011 (UTC)

Warriors App
I was wondering if we're going to do chararts for the Warriors App. I don't have an iPhone or any of that fancy-shamnshy stuff, but I've seen screenshots, and they mention names they were known as. For example, for Leopardstar, she doesn't have a kit pixil, but a past name for her is Leopardkit, so would she get a charart? I know I can't reserve, but if we're doing it for them, I was going to put them on the Charaters Needing Art page, so somebody can reserve and do it :P 02:07, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Ivystripe, this is a good question. I don't know what side to take on this. We have their names...but they weren't seen as that ranking. My guess is that they probably won't have chararts done, but, eh. <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Me ow 02:32, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with Cloudskye. They have just been named. They haven't been seen. Like Leafpool, she was named a queen but never got a queen charart. -- 02:35, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I don't see why not. Toadstep and Rosepetal weren't seen as apprentices; hell, we don't even have their names, but we gave them images anyone. We'd be hypocrites not to do Warrior App images. 02:37, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with Moonflight. I think the characters in Warriors App should get image. 02:44, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I also agree with Moonflight and Rainwillow. 02:45, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Technically, She was seen as one. She was mentioned as a kit when Sunfish was trying to get her to get used to water, Isn't that good enough? It might not be in a book but it was still mentioned in the warriors world. 02:53, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I have no clue where that was mentioned.... I guess you're right, Splashpelt. If she was seen, then she gets one. <span style="background-color: #B7CEEC; -moz-border-radius: 10px 2px; -webkit-border-radius: 12px 4px; padding: 1px 5px 0px 5px;"> Law liet  Me ow 02:57, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

I think we should do chararts for all cats on the app that were mentioned in a rank that they don't have right now. We've had plenty of chararts made when we only knew the name, and we didn't see the cat. ♥ Paleclaw May StarClan be with you ♥ 10:59, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

That's what my logic is about this. For example, we never saw Leafstar's mother as a queen, but she got a pixil, and for Jingo's band of loners, some of the cats that died I think had descriptions, but we never actually saw them. I think we have to be careful though, because in the case of warriors, queens, and deputys, they have the same name, and I don't think we should assume they get a pixil for that if they were never seen as one of those ranks. If we have come to a concensus, give me the word and I'll start filling up the characters needing art page, if you'd like :)

-Oh, also, do we have to wait til midnight tonight to put the Crookedstar's Promise character on that page as well? If so I can do that while I'm putting in the others. 15:53, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

For the App, I think we should. Ivystripe is right. And on Crookedstar's Promise, this one stumps me. People reserved Sign of the Moon character on the fourth of April (around late evening/early night) but the rule has always been the day of the release. I would think, yes, midnight. <span style="color:white;font-family:Comic Sans MS;background:green;border:1px solid; -moz-border-raiuds: 1em; color:orange;">Mintstar  This time for Africa!  16:20, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

They started reserving them at midnight on the server time. -- 16:49, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Actually I meant puting CP characters on the characters needing art page, so if somebody doesn't get who they want, they can find another cat to do. 20:24, July 4, 2011 (UTC)

Notice
If you are an apprentice or higher and looking for something to do, I have added both Crookedstar's Promise and The Rescue characters (it's not all of them, just most of them) to the characters needing art page. We have a lot to do here! So don't fret if you didn't get yours, there's plenty more characters to do :) 01:07, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

Can I please join? I am working on a lot of new chararts from Crookedstar's Promise, (right now, Shimmerpelt). Sa lc  ie  02:53, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

You will be added in as a kit and can't do a charart for one month, because we want to make sure you're dedicated to the project, and we want our kits to learn. Wait for a lead to add you in :) I'm glad you want to join! 03:21, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

What could I do for the month while I can't do Cararts, and what could I do if all of them are done after the month has finished? I'm not going to abandon ship, I'm just curious. Sa lc  ie  14:17, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

Well, you could do practice cats, put them in a hodgepodge picture like I did, and ask others what they think? After looking at tutorials, suggest ways to fix people's pictures on their picture. And trust me, there's lots of pictures to do from CP and The Rescue. 14:28, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

And Salcie, I'm sure when you become an apprentice there will still be some to do :) We have many with all the book releases :) 16:13, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

I'll add you right now Salcie. I suggest looking at the basic guidelines and some tutorials before commenting on a charart. Thank you for your intrest in joining. 01:15, July 6, 2011 (UTC)

Well, you will start being a kit when Tweak Time is over. You will wait out one month learning about the project and then you become an apprentice, able to reserve images and make them. To reserve an image, You check the "Characters Needing Art" and choose an image from there. Then you just put it on your name in the reservation chart and start working on it! 18:14, July 7, 2011 (UTC)

May I join this project? I'm pretty decent with photoshop and paint tool SAI, I think I can help. Shellheart
