Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Attributes
Great job on KOTOR/Attributes. You really revamped the page. Thank you for your work. -- 22:38, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Colors
Try not to add font colors, particularly where black would be suitable. We will probably remove the font tags eventually, since it is usually seen as an unnecessary addition. Also, it may look good in one skin but not another. I'm telling you this so you don't end up working really hard at making things look a certain way, because it will probably change. At least, that's been my experience here over the past couple of years. I'm also telling you this because I was into colors for a while, too, before I was disappointed by the community's stance. I hope you understand. -- 22:42, 7 May 2012 (UTC)


 * No problem, I've already removed the font tags from the four pages to which I've contributed so far.


 * {|cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 style="border: 1px solid dodgerblue; background: midnightblue; color:dodgerblue"


 * For future reference, would something like this be acceptable? I'll concentrate on adding content first, but my intent was to highlight text transcribed from description windows in the game itself (which look something like this).

 * If you're attempting to mimic the game's exact presentation, that's fine, as long as it's clearly legible. While not a huge concern, it is nice to be thoughtful of any potential color combination that people with color blindness might have a hard time seeing (although, usually they can enable browser settings that minimize the issue.)  Also, you don't necessarily need to use a table cell to accomplish that.  You can also use a CSS style span.   Pro  cyon  22:57, 8 May 2012 (UTC)


 * I've used Vischeck, and that particular combination is okay. Since I'm thinking of transcribing description text for attributes, feats, Force powers, items and quests, I'll most likely create and use a template at some point so that if there are any issues, they can be dealt with more quickly and easily.

 * If you want to try, I would use kotorcolor or something game specific. -- 16:07, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
