[edit] Kenya?
You used to live in Kenya? What was it like there? Did you ever eat interesting foods, like... Lions? Did you perhaps learn a second language? Or have a pet... Giraffe? In any case, nice to meet you long name. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 03:50, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Images
Hi there The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith , thanks for all the help you do around the wiki. However I've noticed you've been uploading alot of images recently, and they are mostly in JPG format. Though we use this format on rare occasions, such as some real-world photographs, all screenshots from the official site should be in PNG format. Also keep in mind that there are many unused images on the wiki already, images should be uploaded only when you plan to specifically use them somewhere in the immediate future. Please keep these points in mind, and again thank you for your contributions and happy future wikiings. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 23:56, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith: I have upload PNG images of all the JPGs you uploaded. With that, I also deleted your JPG images and replaced the images on your userpage with the PNGs I uploaded. If you do not want the PNGs on your userpage, that is certainly alright, and you may do whatever you want with it. We really appreciate the work you did with the images and articles, and I look forward to more of your contributions. Keep on tranglin, —FireBird|Talk 02:03, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Long words
Hey there The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith, I just wanted to drop by and say that pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is one of my favorite words. I've liked it for almost as long as I can remember. I also like your Ye Flask article. High fives! Talk atcha later! — It's dot com 01:52, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Severed hands
My favorite thing about your personal image is The Poopsmith's severed hand, still attached to the shovel. :)

[edit] Signature
Hi there The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith. Please review HRWiki:Signature. Your current sig is much too large. Thanks. -- Tom 04:17, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
- Hey there. Cool changes. I helped you out a tiny bit with the formatting just now, you can change it back if it's not what you were looking for. -- Tom 21:48, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Wow, thanks. That makes a huge difference, couldn't figure how to do the link like how you did it. Thanks I lot, I really appreciated the help!

[edit] Throwing a good word
Hi there, The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith! I really like your editing style and technique. By counting your contributions, you have about 50 or so main space edits, which for any other user may seem as a small number or an indicator of a new user who hasn't started to wiki on the big scale yet. But looking at those 50 contributions one would see who great they are. You arleady made five great looking articles that beside small fixes and minor corrections were pretty much complete in one or two major edits made by you.
I really wish that, in contrast to the other comments left on your page, you'll reply to this one. When you do, would you may please tell me how to abbreviate your name? Long names are cool, but a good nickname can go a long way. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 12:32, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Minor Edit
I noticed you named this edit [1] a minor edit. Just so you know, major and minor edits are defined in Help:Editing as follows:
- The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is limited to spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a "minor edit". A major edit is anything that makes the entry worth looking at for someone watching the article; any "real" change, even if it only involves a single word, is a major edit.
Just so you know. Keep up the good work! - Qermaq - (T/C)

[edit] Category linking
Hi there, awesome page creator. Here's a little advice: If you want to link to a category in a normal link you could use [[:Category:Category name|piped link]]. Notice the : at the start of the link. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 06:03, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- Ah, thanks. I knew there was some little trick like that. -- Tlk/Cnt 15:07, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Subpages
Hey there, The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith. Please have a look at our subpage guidelines. Leet pages don't meet the criteria for acceptable user subpages. You might try the fanstuff, though. Thanks. — It's dot com 03:01, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
- Gotcha. No problem. Until now I actually didn't realize that there were guidelines for subpages, but now that I do, I'll gladly follow them. -- Tlk/Cnt 03:06, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ah!!!!
Your userpage is astounding. It takes my breath away. I know how to do the div style="FirstHeading" thing, but that border.....it's amazing... — Seriously (Talk) 20:53, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
- Lol, actually I stole that border from some random userpage on Wikipedia. I have little or no real skill. Thanks anyway, though. -- Tlk/Cnt 21:30, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Oh, Electronic Mail...
Hey there, The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith... Can I just call you Homestrongzipan? Hey, Homestrongzipan. Noticed you've been making a lotta pages. That's neat. I like 'em. Just one little thing. Nothing major, just a standard bit of formatting. When making an appearances list, always preceed the name of an email with the word "Email". A-like so:
- Debut: Email sibbie (Easter egg)
Also, if a character (or whatever the page is about) only appeared in an Easter egg or was merely mentioned, it's standard to mention that after the appearance link. Just trying to help you out. Tis the way we do things around here. Keep up the good work, though. --DorianGray
- OK. I assume you've already corrected all of my stnanks, but I promise to stnank no more on that issue. -- Tlk/Cnt 19:40, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Edit summary
Don't forget to provide edit summaries. Thanks — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 23:35, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Uploaded images
Hey there, The Homestrongzipansadcheatsmith. I noticed that you have an uploaded images subpage — several users have agreed that this type of page does not satisfy the requirements for user subpages. The two main reasons for this are that they don't directly serve the project and that there's already a built-in way to link to your uploaded images: your upload log.
Let me know when you receive this (I realize that you haven't been around for a while, but whenever you stop by), and I'll delete that page for you, or go ahead and make a comment here if you disagree. Sorry, and thanks for understanding. Trey56 01:53, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
