== Forum ==
Today the [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum Forum] opened its gates. I felt it was necessary because the discussion system of the Wiki is not adequate... It is not meant to replace every talk page, but it's good for general discussion topics :) [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 09:06, 22 November 2006 (CET)
 
== Sidebar links ==
 
There is a little problem with the pages linked only in the sidebar: they only appear on the default mediawiki theme...
There is a list here: [[special:lonelypages]]
Link them from somewhere else :)
 
::Ah yes, you're right and I have noticed it myself - though I don't know why anyone would use some other theme, I think this is the best by far :D Anyhow, I'm just waiting to move servers, when this is done I'll look after such details... thanks for pointing out!!!

::There is still 14 orphaned pages... and i prefer using another theme because i use a browser without css support... And what is the difference between [[Applications]] and Utilities ?
:::You are right, I will move the Utilities to the Apps and mark them to be deleted! --[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 10:13, 11 August 2006 (CEST)

::::Ok, have noticed the Wink with the Zaunpfahl :-) and i will do my job tomorrow, if i find time :-)
:::::Ok, I removed it. Happy, y'all? :) [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 20:00, 29 August 2006 (CEST)
:::::Ahh Gryzor did it :) So what? [[User:81.90.35.80|81.90.35.80]] 11:20, 24 September 2006 (CEST)
== Mainpage and Sidebar ==
::: I like the new layout as well, it's meaningful and nicely put, although I think it can use a little cleaning over time :) I'm a bit confused as to how news etc works, though, it currently seems to be all over the place and it's difficult to maintain it for someone who doesn't know exactly how...

:::: Regarding the news I will write a suggestion for the guidline how to insert new news. In general you have a headline, which have to be placed to the news (max 10 entries), the news archive (unlimited) and the main page (max 3 entries). The headline is the article name where you write the news itself + links to the source and the category (month). -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 20:58, 1 September 2006 (CEST)
 
== Main picture of the main page ==
Gryzor, why have you modified the photo of the main page with the ancient one ? If this wiki is related to cpc, i guess it's not only the cpc 464 and the whole cpc range is concerned...Almost the 464 photo seemd truncated and overlayed by a line. Longshot --[[User:195.154.167.66|195.154.167.66]] 14:53, 23 November 2006 (CET)
 
You have reverted modification without any answer about my contrib here about that...
I won't to waste time to update this picture again. Gryzor, you're the main contributor of this site but i think your method is not fair, especially on a site built mainly by contributors.--[[User:Longshot|Longshot]] 13:17, 24 November 2006 (CET)
 
: Well. I reverted it to the older version because I assumed there is something wrong with the image, that's all. For some reason the "range" photo won't appear, and I tried it fromt wo different computers and different browsers. Can you try reuploading the image under a new filename and changing the main page? Also, the 464 pic does appear fine for me - tried with Firefox, Opera, IE. As you can see it's not a matter of being 'unfair' - it's a technical issue, despite the fact that I like the 464 one better :)
:PS try to remember to log in before doing any changes.... :) [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 19:36, 24 November 2006 (CET)
 
::Sorry for the misunderstanding. About the range photo it's strange because i've any problem with ie or firefox (my personal pc) or crazy browser on my professional pc. This picture is a scan i'd modified in 2001 and coming from my site. I've compressed the picture with a newer version of image ready from 53kb to 29.2 kb and i try to upload it again under a new name. Please let me know if the problem occurs again...--[[User:Longshot|Longshot]] 11:46, 26 November 2006 (CET)
 
::: It appears ok now, but I scaled the thumbnail down a bit because it was a big too big... thanks![[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 18:11, 26 November 2006 (CET)
 
== CPC taking a day off ==
 
Is the CPC still in vacation? ;-) Maybe we could remove the picture, to make the info boxes below accessible in a better way again. Are maybe someone has an idea for an other cool frontpage motive? -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 22:36, 18 September 2007 (CEST)
