Template talk:Minesweeper geohash

From Geohashing

I'll upload the other images (and re-upload the current ones better) when I get home tonight. Hopefully I can get a little better resolution using a decent program. I think the only problem, is that the smiley face is larger than the other squares, and is going to have to be scaled down. I'll see how it looks when it's shrunk, but if it's too terrible, I'll see if I can hack together my own. Thepiguy 23:35, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, is there a reason you made the border and the bar blue? Thepiguy 23:36, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

I don't think the smiley should be scaled down. If anything it should be bigger and replace all the other images as a single icon. I want to see it!

I made the border match the default windows title bar. You like black better? -Robyn 23:43, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

You aren't kidding when you said you can code them fast (and well). Thanks for coding that up! -Srs0 23:46, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

It was definitely a group effort. I was just barely starting on the image array when thepiguy posted it, and I wouldn't have tried if you guys hadn't urged. Oh and I just realized what you meant about blue: that was an accident. I was aiming for just the bar. I changed the border back to light grey. I tested it in my own ribbon list and then I noticed what was wrong. I was worried that the image would be too big. It's slightly bigger than the standard 44px all together, but I think it looks fine. -Robyn 23:53, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

I spoke to soon. Template is not done. I have to fix the if ranknumber=8 test. Don't know what's wrong with it. Maybe someone else can? -Robyn 00:26, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

#if just tests for "not null". You'll want to use #ifeq or #eval. I fixed it for you (hopefully). -- Relet 00:29, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
Yes, relet, thank you. -Robyn 00:38, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Let the imagestravaganza begin! (this may take a while) Thepiguy 04:16, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, there we have it. I'm still unhappy with the quality of the JPGs. But I'll see what I can do about that in the days to come. Everything is working now though!

About the colour, what do you think about changing it from blue to black? I was thinking, because of the vast amounts of colours included with the template, it might go over better because black goes well with everything! Thepiguy 04:41, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

No prob. It will be done. -Robyn 04:49, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
Your the best! :D Thepiguy 04:52, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
There should be an award for most awesome template/ribbon, so this could win it. -- Jevanyn

Hi guys, sorry for butting in and possibly screwing up something people actually liked, but I removed some padding around the boxes so it looks more like proper minesweeper, and I converted the images to PNGs. They compress much better (and with less artifacts) than JPEG. Also, if you set ranknumber=0 (zero), O (capital o), X or -) there may be a little treat... —Matty K 12:42, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
