Template talk:Mainpic

This template would work better as a placeholder for the mainpic itself. Differently-shaped, larger, floated right. --Steve-o 22:21, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. Also, the image should be one of the Big Evil Main Badguys in Silhouette from one of the Japanese cartoons. Or... heeeeeeey. How about a scan from the initial 1988 Pretender catalog? The one with the second-wave Pretenders in silhouette with a "?" over them? I'd rather use an official image than a made-up one. (Also, variety of source and content!) --M Sipher 22:24, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Make a template that's about, say, 250px wide, with this image up top, the info below, so it takes the space where the main image should be... think this'd be a winner. --M Sipher 02:32, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

I fear that 'coming soon' will often be a lie unless this category becomes a pet project of users.

(I also fear that it plays into the 'upload lots of crap images and call it content' crowd-- and I made the template! Clearly I am simply filled with misgivings.)

I'll take a poke at it tonight if I don't collapse first. (I do like how this template page acctually includes what's basically a capsule version of what would be a 'policy' page-- instructions on when and why to use, not just how.) -Derik 07:39, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
