Talk:Applying Textures

Doesn't the article formatting look bad with the images on the right side and so much empty space in the body of the article? --wisemx 03:58, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

Well yes, but the alternative is having the pictures underneath, which makes it so one doesn't know which picture belongs to which text. In this way the pictures go with the text. Ideally one could instead make the pictures smaller by uploading closeups on what is refered to, because often the pictures are entire screens when only one small text box is being refered to. Edit: ...or you could remove some pictures too, but as this article is for newbies I'd be careful about removing pictures. Who knows, they might need them. --Andreasen 05:55, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

There are several VDC members who can whip it into shape. --wisemx 07:36, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

I've made a few formatting changes. The big problem is that there are way too many images. We could easily consolidate them all into two or three if we really tried. --TomEdwards 08:17, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

I've rewritten the whole thing to be more efficient. The images are still a sticking point though. --TomEdwards 09:31, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

I went through and removed some images and merged the steps in the original. With Tom's left-hand layout change, it seems fine. --JeffLane 09:51, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)

So we just move the pictures from right to left? Seems pointless, but okay. Anyway that v2 draft Tom made looks compact - however perhaps too compact for a newbie. Where is a newbie judge when you need him? --Andreasen 18:03, 16 Feb 2006 (PST)
