[edit] Userpage
You probably want to add that user information (like where you're from) to your userpage, rather than this Talk page. --Do Not Talk About Feitclub (contributions) 09:23, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Universality
Hey, Just a courtesy to let you know that if you don't have a font on your computer, if it's in use on Wikipedia, then generally speaking, it's going to be a commonly used font. If you're going to modify fonts, don't simply type over with a new font (and there was a reason it wasn't in arial, on the {{John Mayer}} template). If you look at the template I'fe just linked, you'll see what I've done to correct it, allowing the font wanted, but also allowing other fonts as a fallback. --lincalinca 14:46, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tip! --BrOnXbOmBr21 23:29, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] re-playstation 3
err, sorry...one of which may be controversial (putting the VAT note at the top of the table)...but people weren't getting it, so I thought it might clarify. If you have a better idea, please go ahead and do it. --gatoatigrado 16:35, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- by the way, though I don't care on my talk page, it's against MoS to put links in headers I think. --gatoatigrado 16:36, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rolling Stones ‘tongue’ logo image
While I understand that the image in question (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Tongue_%28Rolling_Stones%29.png) is a rather high-res picture and thus probably not eligible for the WP fair use logo template that is invoked on its page, I don’t see why you have to go ahead and delete it directly off of my user page without at least saying something on my talk page first. If anything, start a discussion on the image’s page itself; don’t just go around deleting the image out of the code of a userbox on people’s userpages. —BrOnXbOmBr21 07:56, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
- "Fair use images" can never be used on a user's page. Item #9 of Wikipedia:Fair use criteria (that I mentioned on my edit summary) is pretty clear about that. There isn't much left for discussion. I hope you understand. Best regards, --Abu badali (talk) 09:15, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] wow
Where did you get the great templates? Is this the right place to ask you that? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SeriousCat (talk • contribs) 03:46, 22 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] MOS as applied to Garamond article: the horse neighs back
Hi BrOnXbOmBr21. Please edit or revert as you wish. My changes were a while back. My memory is this: there were far too many links of "Harry Potter" and it is especially unnecessary in the sub-head. I like Harry Potter very, very much, and it is wonderful that they include a colophon at the end of the book. Yet in the long and wide history of the typeface's uses it is not very significant and to my mind very Anglo-centric. Garamond is a French born face. It is a voice of both the Renaissance and the Enlightenment. Mea culpa on the size of sub-heads. I just like them that way.
Completely off the subject, I "visited" your user page and saw the Indian flag and mention of Indian ancestry. I am just back from my first trip there (mostly Rajasthan). Amazing place. And am planning to go back in May '08. My best, Jim CApitol3 05:26, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
