Hey TTGJake! Welcome to the Homestar Runner Wiki! I see you've already dived into some discussion about [[SBCG4AP]]. Don't forget, that you can always preview an edit you've made using the show preview button (I'm just pointing this out, because I've seen that you've sometimes forgotten to sign your talk page posts). Anyway, if you need help, feel free to [[User_talk:Super Turtle|post something on my talk page]]. Have fun! {{User:Super Turtle/sig}} 01:40, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Hello TTGJake, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] and page histories from being flooded.

Since you included the image of [[:Image:sbatdesk.jpg|Strong Bad at your desk]] on your user page, I figured I'd give you a heads up that that picture was uploaded locally. If you'd rather we delete the image from our servers, just let us know. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:55, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

:Nah its cool. Host whatever you want from the Telltale site! I only uploaded my own for my talk page because up until a few minutes ago (see my egregious edit history :( ) I didn't know the syntax for altering image widths. I'll update my page with the one you guys are hosting at some point. [[User:TTGJake|TTGJake]] 17:01, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Hey TTGJake! Welcome to the Homestar Runner Wiki! I see you've already dived into some discussion about SBCG4AP.

[edit] Using Show Preview

Hello TTGJake, I see that you have made several consecutive edits to the same page. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks, -Brightstar Shiner 16:39, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Heh oh man, more warnings on this. Sorry, I am a habitual submitter. Apologies all around. TTGJake 16:43, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
