Hey Lotionman. You're free to blank this page, of course, but it looks kinda funny when you blank it after you receive some critical comments that you don't reply to. Just a heads up. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 21:10, 6 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Hi, Lotionman. You may only have one personal image. Please pick one and add <nowiki>{{delete|personal image}}</nowiki> to all the others. Thanks. {{User:FireBird/sig}} 23:00, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Not to be a rude Gus, but I don't remember you doing anything on [[:Image:mustachioedHR.png]]. But I ''do'' seem to remember collecting three of the four sunglasses shots. Just wondering... am I missing something here? &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:58, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:Oh sorry. I got mixed by who made the 3 pictures of Homestar's sunglasses. BazookaJoe told me about your pictures. I thought he was the one who made those pictures. As for the Mustachioed Homestar picture, I made the picture, and you were able to get rid of the backrounds to only make Homestar on the picture. -[[User:Lotionman|Lotionman]] 02:04, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)Lotionman

::I'm sorry, but I didn't use your image at all. I created mine completely from scratch using a Flash decompiler to isolate Homestar. So I didn't get rid of the background; it was never there. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:09, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

::::That's okay. On another subject, you can just reply on your talk page when someone posts a comment or question. They will usually monitor it for a while for a response, and keeping the threads in one place makes it easier to follow later. Also, here's a quick question/tip: Something looks odd with your signature. Are you typing "Lotionman" after the four tildes (<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>)? Because you don't have to. The tildes put a link to your name in for you, like this: &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:25, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

==[[Homestar's Shades]] replacement image==
+

Hi, Lotionman. Thank you for noticing that I uploaded a higher quality version of your image and the mistake that I made! I got so caught up in making sure the image was PNG optimized that I forgot that Homestar wasn't even wearing his sunglasses in the bottom right corner. However, when you replaced it, your image seemed to be slightly blurred and the file size doubled. I have uploaded a replacement which is nearly identical to yours, except it is clearer and takes up 50% less space. Compare them: [http://www.hrwiki.org/images/archive/3/3b/20050817145132%21Shades.png Your image] | [http://www.hrwiki.org/images/3/3b/Shades.png My image].

Your images form strong bads website are cool and all, but, one the [[HRWiki:User page]] rules it cleary states that you are only aloud to have 1 personal image for your user-page. If you would still like images like the ones on your user page, I can replace them with image shack photos which will be exactly the same. I am now going to do this. Thankyou.{{User:Pertmywert/sig}} 09:48, 6 Sep 2005 (UTC)

==Don't feed the trolls==

It is usually unnecessary and often undesirable to confront trolls logically. Many times it only serves to encourage them to commit more acts of vandalism.

As you can see [[:Image:allsigs.png|here]], the only one with a gif-sig like you is Arrow'd, and he's been inactive for some time now.

[edit] Blanking

Hey Lotionman. You're free to blank this page, of course, but it looks kinda funny when you blank it after you receive some critical comments that you don't reply to. Just a heads up. — It's dot com 21:10, 6 Sep 2005 (UTC)

When I tried to delete my messages once I got in trouble. – Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 21:31, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Did you just blank everything because I told you, you couldn't have those images uploaded. I just told you that because that's the rules. I didn't make them. JoeyDay did so don't go beserk next time. – Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 22:02, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Personal Images

Hi, Lotionman. You may only have one personal image. Please pick one and add {{delete|personal image}} to all the others. Thanks. —FireBird|Talk 23:00, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Thats what I was trying to tell him... – Pertmywert (Talk·Edits) 03:40, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)
Again, Lotionman, you may only have on personal image. Right now you have eight (Image:Level1GroundEdgeRight.png, Image:Level1GroundEdgeLeft.png, Image:Level1Ground.png, Image:Level1FlyingPlatform.png, Image:Level1Block.png, Image:diamond.gif, Image:guitarbig.gif, and Image:fire1.gif). Please mark all but one to be deleted (add {{delete|personal image}}. Thanks again. —FireBird|Talk 03:06, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Done. Thank you. — It's dot com 04:06, 22 Sep 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Can you...?

[edit] Don't feed the trolls

It is usually unnecessary and often undesirable to confront trolls logically. Many times it only serves to encourage them to commit more acts of vandalism. Revert the damage they do and report them to the sysops, but otherwise ignore them. Thanks. — It's dot com 00:05, 28 Sep 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Sig

Woah, your sig looks awesome. Nice gif. — talk Bubsty edits 05:22, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, about that. Don't you think it's a bit flashy? I don't know if you can even have a bog ol' gif as a sig. As you can see here, the only one with a gif-sig like you is Arrow'd, and he's been inactive for some time now. If you want to keep your activeness I suggest you ask someone from the sysop list if you can keep your little siggy. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 11:02, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
It's allowed. That talk on... it was either the main page or FAQ, I forgot, said that someone can now have 2 personal images and 1 for their sig. This gif is the one for Lotionman's sig. I can't see anything wrong with it. (Dinosaur from the fanstuff has a gif sig, and no one has bothered him). — talk Bubsty edits 17:34, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Foud it: HRWiki talk:FAQ#User Image. The sig image can be only 20 pixels. And please cut the animation to a minimum. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 17:44, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

By the way, please do not use this image [link removed] in a signature. Thanks. — It's dot com 20:29, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Okay, I won't use it. Go ahead and delete it. But what signature would you approve? I'm trying to not do stupid stuff anymore, and so far, I guess I'm not doing well. -Lotionman 20:33, 17 December 2005 (UTC)Lotionman (I decided to use my old sig for you not approving my new sig.)
Well, we are still in the middle of making official guidelines, but in the meantime, use a sig where your name is all text, and don't use any animated images.
