User talk:Axeman

Axeman, your making pages we already have. They are hard to remove so it would be appreciated if you stop.

And I would appreciate it if you would stop the attitude and speak to me respectfully. Do not speak to me as if I were an insolent child. Furthermore, if you do some research and find the correct name for the Gewehr 98, you find that I was correct. Here is the Wiki page for the weapon: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gewehr_98 It is not I should stop, it is you. One more thing, please sign your entries rather than making anonymous edits to my talk page. Axeman 06:23, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Size of images

Thanks for the image captures on Run Lola Run, but we are currently encouraging members to upload JPEGs rather than PNGs due to their massive size. It makes the page slow to load, especially for those on slower connections (and also fills up our servers). Though the 1,280×800 look awesome on a high res screen, the uploaded screengrab images really should not be larger than 800px on the long side for the original LARGE uploaded image and anywhere from 500-600px on the movie page (I tend to promote the 500 px image size) since the quality trade off disappears when most of the users can only see the smaller pic. We also try to take into account the many users who are reading these pages on smaller monitors. I only say this because I tried to few the Run Lola page from a slow wi fi connection and literally after 8 minutes, I just gave up and went to another page (waiting for the images to load). If you need any help at all with converting the images, please let me know. MoviePropMaster2008 21:07, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Springfield Armory XD

Hey Axeman, I just want to let you know that the gun in your screencaps is really a Heckler & Koch USP with a stainless slide before you start putting them on your page.--Alienqueen11 00:23, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

please crop black bars on your screencaps

That is the preferred standard on IMFDB. MoviePropMaster2008 23:37, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Section nomenclature

Standard IMFDB formatting rules are that one formats any section by default to "==" unless you are separating the sections by type i.e. Handguns, and then listing the handguns later. Then they go Handguns "==" and then list each on under "===". You don't default to the third tier down when you separate guns. Thanks. I know there are tons of pages which don't have that formatting but they are wrong. I am following the original formatting layout as done by Bunni when the site was created.

Your Lost images

Sorry, but I replaced your images because you did not crop the black bars at the top and bottom. Some of the images that you originally put up (such as for the dart gun) are so dark that the gun is very difficult to see. To say that these are of inferior quality, these are your original images with the black bars cropped and brightened so that more detail can be seen. I am one of the moderators of this site and I am going to leave your images up for now, but I am going to discuss this situation with the other moderators. --Ben41 22:05, 27 September 2010 (UTC)

your images vs Ben's

Ben might overdue it sometimes with color saturation. But you can't say his are inferior to yours. --Predator20 00:19, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Ben's

I agree, how are Ben's inferior? Maybe the color saturation is a little high, but overall, the quality seems better. Also, he didn't do it to all of the images, mostly just darker ones. Anyway, can you at least get rid of the black bars? We always ask that images have those removed. -MT2008 00:20, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

My images look like the original broadcasts. Wherever possible, I use the HD versions of the episodes. They are higher quality because they are not saturated with color. In almost all of his images, people look like they are suffering from jaundice. I may be blunt, but I am right. His are inferior.

In the one example that you posted above, the original scene was dark to begin with. Despite this, it looked just fine as it was and did not need modification. His images are glaringly bright, with bleeding colors and don't look anything like the original images. They are a downright eyesore and an insult to my efforts in obtaining just the right shots and uploading them. They didn't need to be changed.

Also, I have started removing the black bars on new images. I uploaded some today for a TV series called "The Bridge" with the black bars removed. Axeman 01:54, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Julia Roberts Adding movies to actor's page

When adding movies to an actor's page, please place in chronological order of when the movie is released (thus Sleeping with the Enemy would be at the top), also do not add spoilers unless absolutely necessary (per the rules). --Ben41 08:49, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
