That's cool & the "empty Elite" is a cute idea. ^^
One thing, it badly breaks off the side of my screen (1280x1024, Firefox 3.09) because of the non-breaking preformatted text boxes. Maybe it would be better to use alternating rows?
For example:
|- | Example display |- | code for that example |- | Next Example display |- | code for that example
Etc, etc. That would keep it from breaking the Wiki format so much, although I don't know how it would affect the speed of visual referencing. :P -- AudreyChandler 16:56, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
- Good idea; I did it differently, of course, but the principal problem should be greatly alleviated. I'd rather let people use the horizontal scrollbar more instead of cluttering the page, especially when you sort of know what to expect in the hidden section, but the presetn form should be much improved. I really shoudl convert the "regular" skillbars to teh version that does the monster icons (and doesn't use #ifexist), but I've been shying away from thrashing the job queue so much. --◄mendel► 19:22, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, great solution! Very nice presentation now — easy to read and reference. -- AudreyChandler 20:51, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Template Icons
Edit
My guess is, you people are already aware of this and it is being worked on/will be worked on as soon as possible. Still, just in case, I thought I'd tell you that there are many skills for which the icon fails to show, instead being replaced by the same "Skill Name Link" as does normally follow it. I tried quickly looking at the code (I was currently at the Moles Quibus page) but I didn't understand it with my limited, and rusty, knowledge of coding. It's not a big problem really, but it is something that gets noticed (especially since some skills do show the icon, leaving one or two as the odd ones with double text such as Mantra of Flame Mantra of Flame) and by the small probability you weren't aware or had forgotten, I felt like mentioning it. And yes, I seem to have a compulsive disorder for saying exactly why I thought of doing things. :P 94.254.81.122 19:05, February 9, 2011 (UTC)
- If you command your browser to just display the missing graphic, the server will reveal to you that the cache has run into an error. As such, this is not a wiki content problem, and no doctoring with any code can solve it. Wikia's image cache has become corrupted. If you like, collect some of these instances of missing images and consult Special:Contact for means to advise Wikia staff of them. --◄mendel► 22:11, February 9, 2011 (UTC)
