==Article Suggestion==
Item Registry. Y'know, a huge list of all Neopia's items sorted by type (neohome, food, faerie quests, toys, etcetera etcetera). I'd be willing to undertake the majority of it, with some help. -[[User:LifetimeMembership|LifetimeMembership]]

:There is already an article titled [[Item]], where wiki links to each of type of item can be talked about, and there is also a [[:category:Items|category]] for items, but the NeoDex, will ''not'' be a place for listing all the items of Neopets. maybe in the future, but at this time i see no such thing. articles for items ''can'' be made, but only noteable items, as i'm sure an article titled "Bread" as in the food item bread is a waste of space. And if one really wants a list of all the items of Neopets, all they have to do is go to [[NeoItems.net]]. --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 20:54, 9 Jul 2006 (CDT)

::Oh, okay then. -[[User:LifetimeMembership|LifetimeMembership]]

:Perhaps a page for each of the hidden tower items? Other that that, I agree wholeheartedly with Jacob.--[[User:Macbeth|Macbeth]] 04:35, 25 Jul 2006 (CDT)

==Neodex logo?==
What should we do for the Neodex logo? Is the general consensus that the Blumaroo stays? I don't happen to like the Blumaroo much, and it's not a good logo to put in other places. Just a thought. '''--[[User:NeoEva88|NeoEva88]] 10:23, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)'''

:I think the Blumaroo writing on a paper is fine, and doesn't need to be updated. If it should recieve more negative feedback though, i'm wondering what it would be changed to. --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 11:57, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

::I'm happy for a change, if we can get in a better logo :)--[[User:Yukio|Yukio]] 18:27, 27 Jul 2006 (CDT)

:How about a Blumaroo sitting at a desk with a quill, constructed entirely of pieces of a jigsaw a la the wikipedia/uncyclopedia logos? Or virtupets space station constructed of such. It's almost spherical, so it could be identified easily with the wikipedia logo, and being spherical it would not be too difficult to create the logo to a high level of precision for it to be identifiable, and the Vitrupets space station is a recognisable icon of Neopia. --[[User:Macbeth|Macbeth]] 23:20, 29 Jul 2006 (CDT)

::Now that is a really good idea! Anyone here do graphic artistry by any chance?--[[User:Yukio|Yukio]] 09:42, 31 Jul 2006 (CDT)

:::Yeah, I was thinking about Virtupets a bit too, something round at least. I don´t like the idea of it being made out of jigsaw pieces though, it doesn´t need to be ''that'' much like Wikipedia. I just think something round that would seem a bit suggestive would work. (The [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Wookiepedia] logo being an excellent example.) '''--[[User:NeoEva88|NeoEva88]] 11:49, 1 Aug 2006 (CDT)'''

I think it should be one faerie from each type... that would be cool. Who agrees? --unsigned by 71.92.99.181 03:37, 5 May 2007

:At the moment, a new logo isn't in the works, but ideas are always welcome. :) --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 23:08, 4 May 2007 (CDT)

==Front Page Revamp 8/1/2007==
Can we revert to the old version while the page is being overhauled? And have possibly new versions on subpages for a later editor review? --[[User:Macbeth|Macbeth]] 00:41, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

:I don't know...I'm kind of smitten with the new look (duh, it's mine ;P ). But if there are some tidbits to go over before it goes fully up, I suppose it's fair. All the same, what do you think of what I currently set up? I took out a lot of links in the summariezed TOC, seeing as it was originally random. Where would you like the "testing zone" for the new front page look to be? --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 01:04, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

::It's nice, yeah, although the way the featured template is much longer than its adjacent box detracts from it a bit. I just think that if we are going to overhaul the front page, the change could be a bit more drastic, hence would probably need general consensus ;¬). --[[User:Macbeth|Macbeth]] 19:02, 1 Aug 2007 (UTC)

==NeoDex coding updated==
It would seem the NeoDex coding has been updated...wh00t? :D Though it seems a lot of things have changed, along with some things that seem broken. It will be dealt with in due time I am sure, but for now, I'm glad to see progress is being made for this. What does everyone else think? --[[User:Jacob|Jacob]] 10:29, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

:Yup, the PHP and mediawiki are now updated ^^. New wikicodes are now accessible (We can finally resize image without modifying the original image). --[[User:SwordFire|SwordFire]] ( [[User talk:SwordFire|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SwordFire|contrib]] ) 10:34, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

::Image URLs no longer form the embedded image, though. This is going to take a lot of work to fix, as it's quite a widespread issue, but hopefully it'll pay off in the long run. It's worse on pages such as [[Altador Cup II]] where the images not being displayed in line are causing some layout issues. --[[User:Macbeth|Macbeth]] 02:01, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

:::I've enabled the upload function again which was disabled when the back-end was upgraded. Should be working again. I'll also get a graphic designer to design a new WIKI logo. --[[User:Yukio|Kym]] 04:36, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

::::Unfortunately the upload feature is still disabled at the moment. As for the embedded image, we do have a choice of [[wikipedia:Help:Images_and_other_uploaded_files#Embedding_external_images|enabling it again]] if required. --[[User:SwordFire|SwordFire]] ( [[User talk:SwordFire|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SwordFire|contrib]] ) 16:41, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

:::::Thanks for the link to fixing the code. I've enabled embedding images again so that should fix up a lot of the issues right there. :) The uploading feature has also been enabled again. (Upgrading the code had some slight code changes which set a couple of things to their default values. If there is anything you guys ever want switched on/off, just leave a note here. :) --[[User:Yukio|Kym]] 08:10, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

::::::They're working now, thank you. :) But for some strange reason, some articles still do not display the embedded images even though their history do. We'll just have to manually re-save those articles again to bring back the embedded images... --[[User:SwordFire|SwordFire]] ( [[User talk:SwordFire|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/SwordFire|contrib]] ) 09:55, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
