Promo Pics

Hi Solar, there are new pics in FoxFlash. One (the couch gag one) is from "The Kids Are All Fight" and the other 5 are from "Let's Go Fly a Coot". Any chance you could upload them soon? / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:18, April 24, 2015 (EDT)

All uploaded. The Solar Dragon 14:32, April 24, 2015 (EDT)

Uh, the couch gas was The game of life (again) not that one. Pheraps the couch gag picture was also from Lets go fly a coot? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 23:56, April 26, 2015 (EDT)

There are 3 promo pics for "Bull-E" in FoxFlash! Could you upload them as soon as you can? Thanks! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:50, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Uploaded. The Solar Dragon 09:42, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Thanks! There's still one S26 episode without promotional images. I hope they will upload them in FoxFlash in a week from now. / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 10:14, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Hi Solar, there are 5 pics for the season 26 finale(Mathlete's Feat) in FoxFlash(right under the ones from Let's Go Fly a Coot)! / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 08:29, May 8, 2015 (EDT)

Talk page messages and warnings

Hi Solar. It's been about four months since the "clouds-background" talk page notification "disappeared". And the current notification system it's a bit "inefficient". It is not as visible as the clouds one, which causes users (specially new users) to ignore other users' messages or Admin warnings. My question is: Isn't there any chance to bring the clouds notification back?

/* new message box */
div.notice, div.usermessage {
	margin: 1.0em auto 0.5em auto;
	padding: 5px;
	text-align: center;
	border-width: 2px;
	border-color: yellow;
	background: #399BC0 url(http://simpsonswiki.net/w/images/8/80/Simp2.jpg);
	color: #000000;
	line-height: 120%;
}

What do you think? Could that work? / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 19:20, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Okay, message me again and let's test this to see if it works. The Solar Dragon 19:46, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Has it worked? / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 19:54, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Nope. Also tried navigating pages to see if it would show. Nothing. It's getting late and I have coursework and exam revision to do tomorrow so I won't be able to look into it. I'll keep checking the wiki though so if you have any ideas, feel free to put them into action. The Solar Dragon 19:57, May 2, 2015 (EDT)

Two-seasons renewal

Hi, I was wondering if we should create an article for S28 (knowing the show has been renewed for S27 and S28) ??/ Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 18:15, May 4, 2015 (EDT)

Hmm. I guess we could make an article with the announcement info. The Solar Dragon 18:17, May 4, 2015 (EDT)

I've just made it. I think that when the shows was renewed through S24 and 25, despite not being registered in the wiki yet, I saw the S25 page. / Loco87 ^{(Talk / Contribs)} 18:30, May 4, 2015 (EDT)

Bull-E x2 new promo pics

hey man, Homer to the Max posted 2 new promo pics (thumbnails) for the episode. Can you post them normal? thanks :) LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 15:07, May 5, 2015 (EDT)

Low quality images

Hi Solar. I'm going to spend a lot of time this summer dealing with Low quality images. So, please, could you wait until I'll have lowered the number of pictures in the category to 150 (or so) images. Thanks! The category is getting flooded with images. Also, please don't add anymore S18 and S19 images to the category for now. Those seasons are not being released in DVD or Blu-Ray so it will take me a considerable amount of time to find a way to have those images in a decent quality. Thanks! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 08:39, June 16, 2015 (EDT)

Well, I don't really pay attention to what seasons an image belongs to. If it's of terrible quality, I add it to the category. I'll leave it for now though then. The Solar Dragon 08:48, June 16, 2015 (EDT)

FOX about the Homer and Marge Split Up rumor

Looks like they posted a video about it just now. maybe you can add it to the articles? ;) Homer And Marge, Together Forever at YouTube LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 18:13, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

I'm on it now! Also, there's the {{Youtube}} template for it. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 18:25, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

yeah i know but since it's not an article i figured to use the quicker template of links without finding the youtube thing again xD. Is there a way to get an email when a new article on the springfield shopper? I was talking about this article Homer and Marge Are NOT Breaking Up For Good!!! LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 18:36, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

I've made a Blog Post

and all you have to do is to fill the empty boxes in this page and you'll receive notifications! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 20:16, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

I'm blind apparently cause i didn't see that lol thanks LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 20:20, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

You're welcome! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 20:28, June 19, 2015 (EDT)

Unregistered IPs can vote?

So, Unregistered IPs can vote in Featured content nominations? They only can't vote in user rights nominations? / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 19:32, June 22, 2015 (EDT)

Yeah. Nothing wrong with them voting in featured nominations. The Solar Dragon 03:30, June 23, 2015 (EDT)

Ok. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:04, June 23, 2015 (EDT)

Featured Polls

Hi Solar. Does it matter if a Featured Poll has more than 5 options?? I've come up with a good poll idea for next month but it would have 7 options. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:20, June 28, 2015 (EDT)

Well, it was mainly a way of saving space and not having the column expand too much. 7 options should be okay. The Solar Dragon 07:21, June 28, 2015 (EDT)

An answer to a question

Hi Solar! Do you know the answer to this question in Answers? / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:55, July 1, 2015 (EDT)

Nope. Can't think of what it would be. Only thing I can think of is that episode when they crashed a funeral to eat free food, and then all put on sad faces. But I think Homer was also sad. The Solar Dragon 07:59, July 1, 2015 (EDT)

I've thought about that one and Amber's funeral, but I think that Homer just slept in that one. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 08:49, July 1, 2015 (EDT)

What about that funeral that also had that hotdog vendor that was following Homer around? --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 13:12, July 1, 2015 (EDT)

Not that one. (Btw, the one Nick says is Bleeding Gums Murphy's funeral ('Round Springfield)). / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 14:20, July 1, 2015 (EDT)

UK Comics

Why are you reverting a few of my edits on the UK simpsons comics they were wrong —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alicia (talk • contribs) 16:34, July 7, 2015

Your edits seemed more wrong than what we had already. Plus, most of the info was added by long time users. The Solar Dragon 16:37, July 7, 2015 (EDT)

More wrong ahahaha I'm Pretty sure I know a lot more about UK comics than you and some other people do I have every UK and US Simpsons Comic

For example the treehouse of horror issues issue no 2 is not issue 98 etc

issue no 2 is simpsons comic 20 issue no 3 is simpsons comic 33 issue no 4 is simpsons comic 46 issue no 5 is simpsons comic 59 etc

New Season 27 trailer

THE SIMPSONS | Trumptastic Voyage | ANIMATION on FOX —Preceding unsigned comment added by LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk • contribs) 22:07, July 7, 2015‎ In Season 27 one of the things is that Homer is going to vote. Is it possible this is a preview of that episode? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 08:09, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

No, this is a one off special. Although it could be included in that episode in some way. The Solar Dragon 08:14, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Also, the USA presidential election are happening in Fall 2016, so Homer will probably vote in one of the early season 28 episodes. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 09:23, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Uploading picture on the blog

uh what? (I'm trying to upload a 1.06 MB picture). also why can't i select to use thumbnails instead of full size pictures like i can in Topix? LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 10:10, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

I don't know. I always use images already online, I don't use the upload image feature. The Solar Dragon 10:30, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

the problem is with Tapped Out pictures they're too big for the article so i use the upload future for them but if they're too big that happens let's see if Loco knows LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 10:33, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Try to use the images already uploaded in Wikisimpsons. Just go to the file's page and click the image, then you'll have the url of the image in wikisimpsons. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 10:41, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

I can't resize them that way though LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 10:42, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Then add width="250" height="250" or something like that in the <img> tag. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 10:47, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Or if you have the images in your computer you could resize them with paint or something like that and then upload them in the blog or in imgur. Then you would have them in the size you want. / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 10:49, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

Ok done. LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 10:54, July 8, 2015 (EDT)

That shouldn't happen. Can you link me to the image you were trying to upload so I can investigate? And as the others have said, you should always try to use our existing images whenever possible because there's a limited amount of disk space available for new WordPress uploads. Normally it is in bad taste to link images across websites because of bandwidth costs, but since I pay for the bandwidth either way it's okay to do so in this case. --Jake 09:06, July 9, 2015 (EDT)

Community Prizes Screen I was trying to upload the old version of this one. yeah i agree it's better to use the wiki files if there's a limit. I thought there wasn't or something cause on topix it says there's a limit of space in TSS it doesn't show up. LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 09:40, July 9, 2015 (EDT)

Not sure what the issue could have been. I just managed to upload it without any problems. Let me know if any other images do this in the future. (On my talk page.) And about the limit, Topix is a Wordpress.com site so they have an upload cap set by Wordpress.com that (I assume) they can pay to upgrade. That's why you can see the limit when uploading on Topix. Our site doesn't have a cap like that, but we are of course limited by the physical amount of space on the server which you can't see from within Wordpress. --Jake 12:09, July 19, 2015 (EDT)

you uploaded the 72kb new version, the old one is 1 MB big and that's the one that doesnt upload. yeah i imagined that's the reason topix has. it's funny cause we've so much space (13 GB) but we're using so few (1.3) lol LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 12:22, July 19, 2015 (EDT)

Ok, I tried it again with the larger file and got the same error you did. I've increased the upload file limit to 10MB which seems to resolve the issue. --Jake 17:23, July 19, 2015 (EDT)

Yea it seems to work LetsPlayNintendoITA (talk) 18:56, July 19, 2015 (EDT)

Having Image Issues

https://simpsonswiki.com/w/index.php?title=List_of_Simpsons_Comics_in_the_UK&diff=694479&oldid=693038

Why Does images of the issues above 111 not show in the latest revision and how to fix? Thanks Alicia (talk) 05:32, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

I'm not entirely sure why they're not showing up. They should do. I'll try and fix it and see what happens. The Solar Dragon 05:46, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

I removed the ifexist in the template that was only supposed to show the "No Image Available" image if the comic image didn't exist. This shouldn't have been happening and I don't know why it was but it should be fixed now. The Solar Dragon 05:50, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

Ahh I see, Thank!! Alicia (talk) 05:51, July 22, 2015 (EDT)

A diff that should be hidden

Hi Solar, could you hide/delete this Spam diff?. Thanks! / Loco87 ^{(TALK / Contribs)} 07:23, July 27, 2015 (EDT)

I did so before you left this message. lol The Solar Dragon 07:25, July 27, 2015 (EDT)

The Simpsons: Celebrity Friends

I'm uploading the episodes to the drive./AleWi (talk) 14:17, August 1, 2015 (EDT)

Are the credits actually viewable? All the ones I found online were the same episode from the Swedish 6 channel with subtitles. The credits then shrank to a tiny, non-viewable format. And do you have all three of them? The Solar Dragon 14:19, August 1, 2015 (EDT)
