edit- I like your userpage, because it seems to be in some sort of order, but there is space, whereas mine is more tightly packed and all the content is in boxes. I'd say your userpage is good! 2o-DeMoN-o8t*c*a*wp 17:46, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- The userpage is nicely packed together and formatted well. I don't really like the flashing background behind the Wikipedia logo, can you please remove it? - NuclearWarfare contact meMy work 18:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- I'm thinking you should maybe put on the numa numa guy, or maybe the bunny with the pancake. MidKnightHunter (talk) 18:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- I like your toolbar (top of your user pages), if that's the right term. It really looks great. For those of us with wimpy monitors we do have to scroll to see al the functions, but I don't that's the worst thing in the world. Take care. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:47, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
- Here are my suggestions:
- See WP:UPDC if you haven't already
- Start using Wikipedia's keyboard shortcuts (WP:K)
- Shorten your menu bar:
- Remove "Contributions". Your keyboard shortcut to it is alt-y, and a link to it is already located at the top of every screen. Users have access to your contributions from the toolbox menu on the sidebar.
- Rename "Articles created" to "Contributions". If you want, you can include a {{main}}-style contributions link on that page.
- Merge "Images" with "Contributions". On that page, have an articles section, and an images section. You could also have a section for articles that you did major work on but didn't create.
- Replace images on the menu bar that won't shrink down
- Merge "That other page" into your Guest Book, and remove it from the menu.
- Change "Signpost subscription" to "Signpost"
- Change "Guest Book" to "Guests"
I hope you find these suggestions useful. The Transhumanist 01:04, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
- Hello, I'm sorry I haven't gotten back sooner. Let's do this step by step, shall we?
- With your navigation bar, you should either make it completely transparent or add a thin, light border around it. (For extra quirkiness, I recommend a quirky color like pink, orange, or purple maybe.)
- The images are cool, but it looks a bit plain. The border or transparent thing applies here, too. Also, if you wish to keep it, center it, and render it into one image.
- Userboxes are really cool (I had a lot on my userpage, too), but don't go overboard. It may distract the reader and draw attention away from your "meat" of your userpage.
- This one is only a recommendation. After you clean up various parts of your page, then you may want to consider making your various contributions collapsible as well. You have a lot of contributions, and if you organize it for the reader, the reader will be unconsciously thankful.
- I'll make some edits to your boxes down low (the width is thrown off because the colspan parameter is not set for some).
Good luck! – Obento Musubi (C • G • S) 05:04, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
- XD It's better than my page. All I have on my page is a bunch of userboxes... I don't have much to say, other than I like it :D moocowsrule 01:31, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
