Welcome to FireBird's discussion page! Any comments, thank you's, complaints or any other junk for me you can post here. Please don't use the "+" feature to add a new section, as it messes up my page layout.




Freakin Standards

Thank you for this encouragement, I didn't know that no Flash byproducts were to be described.

I didn't read it the first 3 times I read the Standards page, including after getting your Welcome message, and I didn't read it there this time either. Where is it told, not to talk about Flash byproducts?

Well I'll be darned. You're right. I'll have to add that.
Anydangway, sorry if I sounded intimidating. No harm meant. .swf files in Flash usually leave off things (legs, for this matter) all the time, so we generally don't post things like that here, unless it's out-of-the-ordinary (see Strong Bad Sings). Again, I'm terribly sorry I was un-kind. I beg of your forgivness. :) → FireBird

Hate mail

Hey FireBird. I just noticed your comment about hate mail and wanted to point out something. I saw something kind of on this topic the other day on a Wikipedia administrator's user talk page. Raul654 replied to another user's question about the motives of a troll who defaced Raul's user page. He replied, "That's how I tell I'm doing a good job." It made me chuckle. Anyway, I had mentioned this to the other admins yesterday when a similar issue arose on the forum and just figured you could use the laugh. Keep up the good work. -- Tom 14:06, 21 Nov 2004 (MST)

Heh. That's true. It is pretty funny. Thanks.→FireBird

Discussions with Thunderbird

Awww man, I haven't gotten ANY mail yet, hate or otherwise. Maybe I need to step up my workage. Either way, yea, you're doing great. I had no idea you were only a sixth grader. Makes me feel... Old. And your sig inspires me to one day upgrade mine. -- Thunderbird 00:45, 26 Nov 2004 (MST)  :)
Yep. Just a sixth grader. And you're doing great on your workage. You've been working on a lot of big projects lately (Strong Bad Email By Name, place), and you deserve some mail. In fact...→FireBird
Oh thank you. I still have to work on the Costumes alot more. I've been kinda leaving the info section adrift this whole time. But yea, I thought you meant ACTUAL in-your-inbox-email. Yea, I've gotten chatter and stuff on my talk page, but still no hate-talk. Still, maybe one day I'll have the priviledge of revert a troll from my Userspace or something... -- Thunderbird 09:07, 26 Nov 2004 (MST)
Oh, no. I really don't think anyone knows my e-mail address around here. But anyways, I noticed that you had a lot of clutter in you talk page, and I was wondering why you said you hadn't had any mail. And maybe you will get the priviledge of reverting a troll from your userspace. Even though it's not really a priviledge. It's more of an annoyance. :) → FireBird

Hey Fire, me again. I saw your awsome sig, and I was wondering... Would you mind if I kind of... semi-copied it? Not exactly the same, just the same kind of format, only in gold color for Thunder. Then we'd be like... The twin birds of power on this Wiki! Anyways, if you don't want me to do it, feel free to tell me and I'll completely change it in like 10 seconds. I don't want to tread on any toes, and if you want a different sig I completely understand. But here it is for now, please give me an answer sometime soon. Thanks.

[[User:Thunderbird L17|→ Thunderbird]] 01:42, 27 Nov 2004 (MST)

'P.S.' If it is okay with you for me to keep it, then how can I get the blue line out from under the arrow. Also, is it possible to exchange the arrow for different symbols? If so how? Just to make it a little less... Copied. Anyways, once again, if it's okay with you for me to keep my sig, then could you give me pointers on just what all the symbols mean and how I can change them to ultimate my sig? Thanks again.

[[User:Thunderbird L17|→ Thunderbird]] The Raw Code: →''<small><tt>[[User:Thunderbird L17|<font color=gold> Thunderbird</font>]]</tt></small>''


Hey. That's a nice sig, and I don't mind if you keep it.
To get the arrow un-linked, the code should look like this:

→''<small><tt>[[User:ThunderBird L17|<font color=gold>Thunderbird</font>]]</tt></small>''

If it does, then I'm really not sure what to do.
And if you want to change the arrow for different symbols, there is a full list in the Editing Help page. →FireBird
What the heck? I can't get the arrow unlinked... Unless... Do you cut and paste your signature each time, or do you have it set in your Preferences and use the ~~~ meathod to display it? Because I have it set in Preferences and the Arrow is linked as well. If I just cut and paste it looks like this:

Thunderbird

But if I use the shortcut then it becomes linked.

[[User:Thunderbird L17|⇒Thunderbird]]

So thats probably it. Correct me if I'm wrong. But other than that it looks awsome.

P.S. If you had yours red, then it would be like twin sigs, red for Fire, and Gold for Thunder... :) I don't know if this is gonna be my final sig design, but it looks pretty good and close now. Thanks for all your help. I'm gonna see if I can find a little bird symbol somewhere and cut and paste it, instead of the arrow. But it's pretty close now.

(Oh, and I fixed your spelling on your main page. Put it back if that's the way you wanted it.)


Well I just copy and paste it from my user page, so that's probably the reason. Also, you need to type out "→" for the arrow when you cut and paste. But if it looks like this:

→''<small><tt>[[User:ThunderBird L17|<font color=gold>Thunderbird</font>]]</tt></small>''

with "→ spelled out, it should work out. You do probably need to put it on your user page and copy and paste it every time you need it.
Oh. And I really don't want to make my signiture red because then it might look like a broken link. →FireBird(For some reason, "nowiki" isn't "nowiki"ing the arrow code. So when you reply back, just look here for the code for the arrow.)
I believe the right arrow (→) can be show on a page as "&rarr;". All one has to do is put "&amp;rarr;" in the edit box. You just have to be one step ahead of MediaWiki with those ampersands. Whoa, that's confusing. -- Tom 14:21, 28 Nov 2004 (MST)
I see. Thanks. →FireBird


Yea, you can also just cut and paste the arrow, thats what I did here: → so it seems to work fine. And for your sig in your preferances, so you can do the ~~~~ meathod with the time stamp, it does just link everything, including the arrow. But I've got a remedy of sorts for it so it doesn't look so out of place, and I think my sig looks mighty good now. Thanks for all your help. [[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔Thunderbird⇔]]

Oh great, now it only links the first one... Oh well, it's a work in progress... [[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔ Thunderbird ⇔]] 00:11, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

Okay, my sig is done. Thanks for your help, and sorry that this conversation kinda spiraled into a huge mass of text. Feel free to condence it or what not now, since this conversation can probably finally be put to rest. What do you think of it?

My New Sig:

[[User:Thunderbird L17|⇔Thunderbird⇔]] 19:24, 29 Nov 2004 (MST)

Pretty dern awesome. →FireBird
