User talk:FANSTAR

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi, FANSTAR, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay.

You may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset.

If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions.

For help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style.

If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ.

If you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)!

There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library.

Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal.

Feel free to post questions on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.

You may want to add yourself to the new user log.

If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

On IRC, check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing. —Kf4bdy talk contribs

[edit] Hunebed D27

>Hallo, zou jij deze afbeelding ook in de nederlandse wikipedia willen uploaden?

Nee, ik heb het niet zo met de NL Wikipedia - te veel eigenwijze administrators... Je kunt de foto zelf ophalen van http://members.home.nl/jbmeijer/d27.htm en uploaden. MH 13:46, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
had je `m dan toch niet zelf gemaakt? FANSTAR 14:20, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Question about font

Hi Gurch, i`m making banners for the Dutch Wikipedia and I wanted to ask you what font you used on this banner:

.

I have made a dutch version of this banner, you can see it at nl:Afbeelding:WikiBanner-voorbeeld.gif. FANSTAR 17:42, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

The font is Gill Sans (the font used by the Wikimedia Foundation) – Gurch 21:08, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
And what version of it did you use? FANSTAR 21:19, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
The version that comes with Microsoft Office ... though I don't think there's any significant difference – Gurch 21:35, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

(reduce indent) You can use GIMP (free software) to make banners. That's what I usually use. Miranda 01:09, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I use PSP FANSTAR 08:02, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:BANNER

Hi, I saw your creation of banners on the nl project, and I am very excited that the banners have spread to other languages. Unfortunately due to the copyright issues, fair use, such as this are in violation of usage of the picture. For the ads, we generally use free use images (such as GFDL located on Wikimedia Commons or on public domain related sites). Thanks. Miranda 01:08, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Those are free images from commons. FANSTAR 08:03, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
My apologies. Didn't see the source of the image. Miranda 11:30, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
