Template freak
Hi, if you haven't noticed, this template freak has started templating the shop pages, and started a template category for the templates, Category:Trainstation Templates. --Koppa Dasao frelangi kazelangin na 17:29, September 29, 2012 (UTC)

wikimedia extension: Loops
Could you please have Wikia install the Loops extension onto this wiki. I can't make a parser that takes plain text costs without it. --Koppa Dasao ƒłелањі каселањін на 22:08, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Heya Mhommer,

Could you edit in the Taipei Tower, i uploaded a pic and updated the forgotten cargo (where I got it from) a few mins ago but sadly my wiki editing skills are not up to spec. Stats are 10 spaces taken and 100pph.

Thanks

Hi Mhommer,

i'm from germany, hanover. I have a question about the pictures. How can I delete the background or which program do you use?

I have a message from Koppadasao:

Thank you for telling me the value of my work on the wiki. It's nice to know you both appreciate my extensive contribution like it was just. --Koppa Dasao ƒłелањі каселањін на 23:10, December 3, 2012 (UTC)

I sorry you feel that is the message that was being portrayed for that certainly was never said on my part. My concern was and continues to be name calling and demeaning remarks. Everyone gets passionate about their ideas and their viewpoints. The passion is good in that it keeps up energized, striving to achieve. It certainly can be frustrating when we have an idea that is clearly right and other do not come around to our point of view right away. That is where that passion can sometimes get in the way. Not allowing us to step back and look it from someone else point of view and try to understand where they are coming from. Sometime that can help us to change how we explain our viewpoint in a manner that someone else can understand. Sometimes we learn something that may make us change our viewpoint.

All over a disagreement on how to represent a complex idea, disparaging remarks have been made toward individual, cultures and countries. Instead of taking a broader view to understand where the confusion came from and if it might be representing two different approaches or areas of correlation to the problem, passions took over.

I edit this wikia for fun. One of my hobbies is building model trains and as a game Trainstation kind of fits in to that hobby. It also gives me a chance to play with web design of sorts which I haven’t done for years as a career. I don’t hold an opinion on which viewpoint is entirely right or wrong because I see an approach in both methods. What I do hold an opinion about is giving others respect, patients and understanding. The initial conversations may or may not have warranted the action taken but the response since has not been very favorable.

I think I'm getting better! These pics are almost half as good as yours!

Image Enlargement
Ahh, the fix for this is pretty simple. All you have to do is put link= somewhere in the image properties. Examples: ^-- plus I got a very nice screenshot of the Leopold from Pixel Federation!

Hope that helps.

Whatcha workin' on? I'm thinking about a new layout for trainsets that have long engines...

THIS is basically my idea for "wide" locomotive pictures. Implementation will be ridiculously easy. Lemme know what you think.

Request for help
Hi Mhommer. Good job getting all those pages categorized to quickly. If you have any ideas for what you want the main page to look like and/or the content that you want featured, please share them with me. More images would make the page more visually appealing, and because I'm sure the most important/popular part of the game is the types of trains, I was thinking it would be a good idea to make a section for them with images that link to each of the train types listed on the Trains navigation menu - Locomotives, Cargo Wagons, etc. Under than section I could also have a section with images that link to the other categories on the navigation menu (Gameplay, Shop, Activities). If you want to try that, just link me to the image that you want to represent each item.

What Do You Think?
There is only minimal rearranging. car5 is moved from right to left, and there is an optional slot at the bottom for wide wagons as well. I think it's a little more versatile, and really shows off bigger locomotives as well.

I finally completed the switchover - every page that used the old now uses the new  template. I think it looks pretty good...

I fixed the Category thing. As for the link - do you mean the blue link below the loco/car picture? I put that in on purpose.

Plus, nice work on the Arctic Express set.
