Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes
(~~~~)
at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put
{{My sandbox}}
on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.Sincerely, Jax 0677 (talk) 04:57, 3 June 2014 (UTC) (Leave me a message)
Please stop adding color to tables.
[edit]Not only were some of the color choices down right hideous, but it made it next to impossible for people with certain color blindness or other eye sight problems to see the text. Color in these cases should be avoided at all costs. Bgwhite (talk) 06:11, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

[edit] Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Cobra Commander may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

What is your source for these changes? You can't just add your own opinion of Mr. Ulrich. Who says he is outspoken and controversial? I don't see anything controversial about him, certainly not anything out of the ordinary for a rock star. --SVTCobra (talk) 20:26, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
- Since you haven't supported your claims, I have reverted your edits. Cheers, --SVTCobra (talk) 21:09, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
DBZ colors
[edit]I like what you did with the character boxes, the colors were somewhat oversaturated the way they were but you picked some comfortable shades. I couldn't even think of one for Piccolo (besides the obvious green lol). Again, nice choices! Jo2uke (talk) 02:49, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
Changing university athletics colors
[edit]Please be careful when you update colors; not all universities and their athletic departments use the same hex codes. For example: The University of Georgia uses #CC0000
for their academic side, and #DA291C
for their Athletics Dept. You need to check both the academic website and athletic dept. website for a brand manual/trademarks sheet. If they both match, then use that code; if they do not match, use the different codes for the different articles. Corkythehornetfan 06:15, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
My apologies, thank you for your concern ArmandoBecker (talk) 18:29, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- Also be aware of sources. For many of the articles related to Kent State University, the document you have been citing in your edits is from 15 years ago (2000), while many of the articles cited the university's current style guide and color palette, which can be found at http://www.kent.edu/webteam/color-palettes and has slightly different shades (which Corkythehornetfan recently updated in those articles) than what was listed in 2000. --JonRidinger (talk) 13:02, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
Tip when changing colors
[edit]Hello. I see you've been editing some templates that use the {{CollegePrimaryStyle|Name of school|color=white}}. When a school's colors are mixed around, instead of changing to {{CollegeSecondaryStyle|Name of school|color=white}}, you can switch the colors at Module:College color/data. Just make sure you test it at Module:College color/data/sandbox first. Also, when you change hex codes for athletic teams, and you are 100% positive those are the correct colors, please make sure you update them at the Module as well. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Thank you for your assistance. ArmandoBecker (talk) 05:02, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
Colors, once again.
[edit]Armando, remember when I told you that not ALL universities and their athletic depts. do NOT have the same colors? More specifically, the University of Georgia? In fact, I believe it is just up above. I even provided you a link to the athletics brand manual. Please do not change UGA's colors to #CC0000
again; those are only the university academic colors. The Athletics Dept. colors are #DA291C
& #2C2A29
per their Athletics manual. I'll tell you once again, please check BOTH the university and athletics website for brand manuals. Corkythehornetfan 14:06, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
I am so sorry about that, Corky, I was just trying to help.ArmandoBecker (talk) 16:57, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
- I realize that, but you have to remember those things... especially when it is on your talk page to remind you. Also, when you change colors like Kent State, make sure it isn't an outdated source. Kent State (which I updated just last month) has a page on their website that is not a PDF. You need to be more careful when updating colors. Corkythehornetfan 17:40, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
Alright then, I'll try to keep that in mind. ArmandoBecker (talk) 23:12, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
