Thanks for your images
We appreciate the images you've contributed to the wiki, however it seems you forgot to add some things to them. The images in question are:


 * File:Trait.png

If you have any further questions about this message or this wiki, feel free to contact me on my talk page. Duskey ( talk ) 09:13, August 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * I forget the category. Either way, I avoid copyright thing, because I don't really understand it properly.


 * Some Wikias use a pre-defined copyright style, like "This image is a screenshot" and etc. That is very helpfull.


 * Ilovefoxes 09:57, August 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Can you give me an example? If an image is a screenshot of a Sims game, it's Copyright by EA as explained above. Duskey ( talk ) 12:17, August 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Upload


 * Here you see pre-defined "Licensing" in the upload form


 * Ilovefoxes 12:27, August 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Aha, that is clever. We're actually trying to improve how marking images for copyright works here on the wiki, I'll be sure to include this as an example. Thank you. Duskey ( talk ) 13:02, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

Look what's been implemented: New license dropdown menu, thanks for the suggestion. Duskey ( talk ) 19:31, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Trait
Good job on improving the trait page. Duskey ( talk ) 09:13, August 15, 2010 (UTC)

New game icons
New (proper) game icons, sweet! Are you resizing the excisting ones now? I see you're editing many of those pages. Duskey ( talk ) 05:40, August 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I am extracting them from the actual .ico and subsequently removing the shadow.


 * Yes yes! I am editing the pages, changing the extension to png in one file, and giving a proper size on the page (instead of depending on the file resolution)


 * Ilovefoxes 05:44, August 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sweet. In which package files did you find those? I'm using Sims 3 Package Explorer myself, but can't for the life of me find the right package files. Duskey ( talk ) 06:12, August 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * I did not found in any package D= The files are just left in the CDs or game folders (search for *.ico). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ilovefoxes (talk • contribs) 08:41, August 23, 2010 (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~


 * I can only find small 32x32 icons both in game dirs and on the CDs :( -- Duskey talk 20:32, September 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Hmmm, maybe you are not using a good program. *.ico files came with various images inside it in different sizes and color bits. I use IcoFX (http://icofx.ro/), it's freeware and very easy to use. Ilovefoxes 21:18, September 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oooh, thanks a lot. I had no idea ICO files had more images in them and thanks for the program :) -- Duskey talk 21:26, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

"Stupid" icon
I deleted the icon for stupid since is was user created and not from the game. Duskey ( talk ) 21:18, September 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I sort of imagined that. >_< Ilovefoxes 23:01, September 5, 2010 (UTC)

List of vehicles
You have the images for the various taxis from The Sims mixed in with the carpool vehicles. Also, do please try to remember that not everyone has a large and/or widescreen monitor. Aside from that, good job. Dharden (talk) 03:32, September 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * I use it more like a image gallery. So I want to upload all vehicle images. I use "Carpool" as all vehicles that you can't place in the lot, otherwise I call "Buyable" even if you can only get them as career reward etc.

You may be interested in knowing that there's currently a discussion on how to organize cars and vehicles. The Sims Wiki talk:Community Portal. -- Duskey talk 13:33, September 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * In the list/gallery for The Sims, names such as "Studio", "Circus", and "Clown", just don't look right. The "Visitor trolley" is the Old Town trolley that comes when Sims call for a cab to Old Town. Calling it "Visitor trolley" doesn't convey that. The "Vacation wagon", which is used for going to Vacation Island lots, is the carpool SUV with a rooftop luggage rack and the spare tire slightly moved, so it makes more sense to call it an SUV than a "wagon".
