Image request

Thanks for the (fast) image upload for Leftfoot's assistant. If it's not too much to ask, could you perhaps also provide a screencap of "Lightfoot: A Dramatic Encounter" - Gilmer reaching for his crotch in pain. I'd like to see it added to the episode page and the Humanization article. And if you'd have The Headmasters DVDs, the purple rat monster article has been without image for half a year.

Sure! Unfortunately my DVDs of The Headmasters are out on loan to a friend at the moment, so I haven't even been able to get around to adding screenshots to the HM episode articles. I will see what I can do though. --abates 03:44, 17 October 2010 (EDT)

What's a few more days or weeks to six months? ;) Thanks a lot for your uploads so far. Geewunling 04:07, 17 October 2010 (EDT)

Thank you!! Geewunling 02:26, 27 October 2010 (EDT)

No problem! --abates 02:37, 27 October 2010 (EDT)

Image request revisited

Do you think you could do another imagery list? I am looking for a better version of Image:Starscream clone G1.jpg, a screenshot of Trashbin (as the page itself notes, the best image moment would be shortly before the line "you check in, but you don't check out" by Wreck-Gar during the chase scene on Junk), and Dread slaves needs some images. I think a screenshot of when Kup finally frees everybody, aka that time organic prisoners show up, would be good for the Notes section. Possibly when three of the robot prisoners (the ones who get caught by Predaking) try to flee would be good as main image. Think you could get these? Geewunling 04:21, 13 December 2010 (EST)

I'll take a look. I did look through my screenshots for "Chaos" a while ago for suitable shots of the Dread slaves, but couldn't find any, so I may have to go back to the episode. --abates 04:53, 13 December 2010 (EST)

Er, regarding Trashbin, I don't see him in that shot. The dude in the middle back is closest, but has a different head and legs to the character model. --abates 05:48, 13 December 2010 (EST)

Thanks for the uploads so far. With Trashbin, it "is" the dude in the middle. The fact he has a slightly different head and legs in that shot doesn't change what model he is supposed to be anymore than HAZMAT's face/no face difference. Alternatively, the closest possible shot of him attacking Arcee will also do (can't use the moment after she knocks him over, because then the model gets switched for Junkyard's). Does this help? Geewunling 07:11, 13 December 2010 (EST)

Ahhh, OK! --abates 14:22, 13 December 2010 (EST)

"Plaise, suh, may I 'aff s'more?"

Many thanks for Trashbin's and the early war dudes' images. Though, could I request some more images for the latter's page? For the gallery, I'd like images of the yellow/blue and green dude when they walk next to each other, the red and the blue chars behind them standing in front of each other, the Whirl-like dude fleeing, the red and blue guys fleeing for Decepticon fire and maybe another image for the grey/red guy fleeing behind them. I'd also like a shot from "The Key to Vector Sigma" featuring at least the green dude for the Notes section. Think you could get these too? Geewunling 18:54, 26 December 2010 (EST)

Put!

Put, c'mon! --Barricade123 15:30, 7 November 2010 (EST)

Hey

I'm just trying to add interesting stuff to this place. I came from the wikia of this, and I'm eager to make this site even better than it.

I just don't see the rhyme or reason at which you delete stuff. I thought the focus here was on comedy, so the reasons you gave for removing some things made no sense. I always tried to think up meaningful content to add when I came across something. I don't just add for the sake of adding, and everything I've added was there before on the wikia site. --Tommy-Vercetti 16:54, 8 November 2010 (EST)

The focus here isn't just comedy and there's a limit to it. Sometimes, too much details or comedy can get in the way of the article so we have to trim back. --Lonegamer78 17:04, 8 November 2010 (EST)

We split from the Wikia site two years ago, so it has evolved different rules to us. Some of the things that you added, like the last appearance of Inferno's beast mode, aren't particularly notable in themselves - if we added notes every time a character was seen for the first or last time, the wiki would be covered in them. --abates 17:12, 8 November 2010 (EST)

Re:The Pri¢e of Life! UK cover

You probably don't remember, but I'm trying to work out what the source is on the credit for Frances Farmer on the UK cover of "The Pri¢e of Life!". According to the history, you added it in March '08. Do you recall where you go the info from? --abates 20:34, 3 November 2010 (EDT)

Hi! Sorry, I haven't been on in a few days. No I don't remember exactly where I got the info for the cover, but I suspect it was from here. Now, where THEY got it, I have no idea. Maybe they actually have the comic. Hope this helps.--MistaTee 09:19, 15 November 2010 (EST)

Aha, thanks! --abates 14:16, 15 November 2010 (EST)

"Micron Legend" <> "Micron Densetsu"

Why "Densetsu" instead of "Legend"? --Lonegamer78 03:48, 25 November 2010 (EST)

That was Interrobang who changed that. I guess because we're using Micron in the name rather than Mini-Con? --abates 04:05, 25 November 2010 (EST)

Whoops. And it doesn't make sense. Well, to me. --Lonegamer78 04:07, 25 November 2010 (EST)
