Hey, welcome to the wiki and thanks for all those armour images :D. If I can give one suggestion for future screenshots, could you use a somewhat brighter dye set so it stands out a bit more against the background? pling User Pling sig.png 21:46, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks, and I will use brighter colors in the future. Is there anything in particular you'd like me to work on? I was planning to get as many armor images up as possible. Also, I'm not quite sure if this is the right way to contact you. Is there a way to reply to your post on my talk page where you will be notified?
You can just reply here, I've added this page my watchlist so I'll see when it updates - I've moved your comment from my talk page to yours, to keep the discussion going in one place. Also, you can sign your comments by adding ~~~~ at the end.
And no, nothing else comes to mind, just the dyes. pling User Pling sig.png 22:03, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey, so if there is a page that has a set of images already uploaded, such as this one: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Cabalist_armor how would I take those images and insert them into the human female gallery script? KFblade (talk) 00:18, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Firstly, copy this code, exactly, into the page. That sets up all the gallery boxes and image links, for each race and gender.
Secondly, you'll need to rename the existing images to fit the filename format. Click the already-existing image, use the "move" tab at the top, and change the "to new title" box. So for Cabalist armor and human female, change it to "Cabalist armor human female front.jpg". If you're not sure what to name the image, click the red link in the gallery box, and it will tell what the file name should be in the "destination filename" area.
I know, it's complicated... If you find it easier to simply upload your own images like normal, instead of moving existing ones, feel free to skip step 2. pling User Pling sig.png 15:36, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Great, that's exactly what I needed. Thanks a lot! KFblade (talk) 19:29, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
No problem, but be sure to take care with appropriate capitalisation too, otherwise it won't show up in in the gallery. pling User Pling sig.png 19:37, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Okat, that answers my next question, but now I'm having trouble with this file: Cabalist_Armor_Asura_Female_Front.jpg. I'm trying to change it to Cabalist_armor_asura_both_front.jpg, but it says there's already a file there.KFblade (talk) 19:45, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey, yeah it seems that there were some remainders were left over from previous moves. I have deleted a few of those empty pages now, so you should be able to move the file now. poke | talk 19:51, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Ok, last question. A few of the armor pages have a "Dye effect" section. Is that something you guys want to keep, or no? The preceding unsigned comment was added by KFblade (talkcontribs) at 19:58, 21 June 2013‎ (UTC).
Uhm, I can’t answer that, I’ll leave that to Pling ^^ poke | talk 20:08, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
I don't know, really. If it's already there, I'd say keep it. pling User Pling sig.png 12:36, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
