Revision as of 23:48, 17 February 2012

Need correct image

All three tournament bases (bronze, silver, and gold) need updated images to match our conventions. Right now, the primary image was taken with HitGrab Horsey instead of Mystic Pawn Pincher, and the secondary images when a Champion Charm is armed was taken with cheese on the trap instead of disarmed. Sadly, I do not yet have enough tournament tokens to fix the issue myself. -- ericb talkcontr 15:54, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

I've updated the image link for the standard version of the Bronze Tournament Base, but seeing as I do not have Champion Charms or the Silver & Golden bases I'm afraid that's the best I can do at the moment. And just out of curiosity, does anyone know why we stopped editing the weapon out of the base images? I went on a bit of a hiatus from the wiki, but IIRC we used to remove the HitGrab Horsey (and later the Mystic Pawn Pincher) from the image in an attempt to include as few "spoilers" as possible for players who did not wish to see weapons that they had not yet acquired. I'm not particularly invested in the matter either way, but I was wondering if anybody knew when this changed or could explain the reasoning behind it.
Also, should we consider streamlining some of the older images in an effort to create a more consistent wiki? I'm admittedly torn about some of them such as the Wooden Base, where the image is of a higher quality than what is currently available but features the undesirable shadow effect from the HitGrab Horsey (not to mention the whole cropped vs. uncropped inconsistency). —MearsMan talk 17:20, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
