It seems to me that the image for the "Project Decks" tag is pretty ugly.  Now that's just my opinion, but do you think you could do something about it?  I don't know how, and, besides, I'm not the project leader.  Like, maybe a picture of some damage counters would work.  Just an idea!  [[User:Politoed666|Politoed666]] 02:40, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

*If you think they are worthless maybe you shall erase the templates? Oh, an hit if you don't want me to make some templates, check my profile if you have seen me update it. When I update it, it is most often because of I is creating an new templates. I always checks that a template is complete before if creats a page for it in my profile.

Why can't I use <nowiki><span style="size: 100px"></nowiki> to make text bigger since I can use <nowiki><span></nowiki> to make text a different color? --[[User:Shiny Noctowl|<span style="color: brown">S</span><span style="color: red">h</span><span style="color: brown">i</span><span style="color: red">n</span><span style="color: brown">y</span> <span style="color: red">N</span><span style="color: brown">o</span><span style="color: red">c</span><span style="color: brown">t</span><span style="color: red">o</span><span style="color: brown">w</span><span style="color: red">l</span>]] [[User:Shiny Noctowl#The Secret Page|Find the secret page!]] <span style="size: 100px">♪</span>The [[wp:oboe|oboe]] is the best instrument ever!<span style="size: 100px">♪</span> 20:29, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
:Oh, that's simple. "size: 100px" is for images. What you'd be looking for is this: <nowiki><big>the text you wanna make bigger</big></nowiki>, which results in <big>the text you wanna make bigger</big>. You <big>can <big>use <big>it <big>multiple <big>times, <big>too.</big></big></big></big></big></big>
 
Plus, using <nowiki><small>the text</small></nowiki>, you <small>can <small>make <small>text <small>smaller <small>and <small>smaller...</small></small></small></small></small></small>
 
But those are just, like 2x or 1/2x size multipliers... So if you really wanna control it, use <nowiki><span style="font-size: 100%;"></nowiki> instead of <nowiki><span style="size: 100px"></nowiki>. Change the percent and you can get text<br><br><br><br><span style="font-size: 1000%;">ten times bigger</span> or <span style="font-size: 10%;">{{tt|ten times smaller!|ten times smaller!}}</span>
 
:Here's a fun one, though: [[Bulbasaur (Pokémon)|<span style="text-decoration:blink">BLINKING LINK!!!</span>]]
 
Anyway, have fun with text size, but not too much. Me? I'm gonna play with the line of periods: <big><big><big><big><big><big><big><big><big><big><big><big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.</big>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.<small>.</small></small></small></small></small></small></small></small></small></small></small></small>

==Uploading==
 
A whole ago, another user contacted my about uploading images to the Bulbagarden archives and then putting them from there onto the target article.  Previously, I had just been taking stuff off Google images and copying it onto the page.  It didn't really concern me then, but now I'm thinking about writing articles on some individual trading cards, such as {{TCG ID|EX Crystal Guardians|Castaway|72}}.  So, how do I upload an image onto the Bulbagarden archives?  Just put it on my [[User talk:Politoed666|User Page]], please.  Thanks!  [[User:Politoed666|Politoed666]] 02:03, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 
Yeah, I created a Bulbarden Archives user, named Politoed666 (naturally).  I logged in and clicked "UPLOAD."  And, it gave me a "permission error," which essentially says that I am not allowed to upload media.  Ticked off, I went back and made sure I was logged in.  I was.  So, I'm officially perplexed.  How do I upload images when I'm not allowed to?  [[User:Politoed666|Politoed666]] 22:01, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 
Thanks!  It worked great, and I am now a respected member of "Bulbagarden Archives."  [[User:Politoed666|Politoed666]] 22:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
