Hello!

Wow, hey, thanks for choosing to help with the F-Zero X profiles! I didn't have enough information to create them myself, and use of the ending screens is a nice touch :) Alex95 04:35, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

It's not a problem at all, I'm happy to help. I'm not very good at Wiki-text so I'm sure the template has technical problems (I basically just reverse-engineered it from the GX profiles) but I figured it would be a welcome addition. I'm getting really into the series and it's sad to see it documented so poorly online, so I'm helping how I can. Thank you and please have a nice day. Nymbare (talk) 04:41, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

One error I'm noticing is the image link. Files are named like "SummerX.gif", but it's looking for "Jody SummerX.gif" for example. This is a simple fix that can be done by either image move or additional parameter, but I'm thinking of replacing the gifs with pngs, though. Know of any good places to find pngs?

I downloaded a sheet of their portraits from Spriter's Resource and cropped each pilot's artwork to make pngs. They were already transparent, too. I uploaded the pngs of Guster and Baba as Media:Antonio GusterX.png and Media:BabaX.png, and I was going to upload the rest of them, but I figured it'd be more efficient to replace the gifs with the pngs instead of uploading a new set of 30 images. To do that, though, the pages would have to be renamed, and I can't do that. On that topic, I think it would be preferable to rename the images from "SummerX.gif" to "Jody SummerX.gif", for example. Just so the name is consistent between pages and images, to make coding easier. Nymbare (talk) 02:09, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

If you already have the pngs uploaded or yet to do so, then go ahead and replace the gifs and fix the coding to match. Pages don't have to be renamed, just upload the files like "Captain FalconX.png". I'll take care of deletions and any replacements you missed. Alex95 05:43, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

I've uploaded the pngs and got the template working properly. Thank you for your help. Nymbare (talk) 06:09, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

And thank you for yours! I'll get to image replacements and deletions tomorrow, rather late at night now ^^; Alex95 06:14, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
