Creations

Number of creations can be a bit tricky... how do we deal with people who have both drawn stories and produced covers, for example? Maybe the best would be to separate them, i.e. "Number of Phantom stories", and "Number of Phantom covers" etc. Andreas 14:48, 11 May 2008 (CEST)

Thats fine it was just an idea that i had instead of listing their phantom works which would be impractical --Dark Lord Xander4 08:23, 12 May 2008 (CEST)

I agree that stories and covers should be kept separate. Then there might be a little bit tricky to define what a story is, I am thinking both of when persons like Ian Colbell have been making humor strips and things like the pages that was in the 10 first issues of Fantomen Krönika.

I also think that there perhaps could be room for some kind of text below the photo of the creator. Some of the photos have been used by permission, though in this new form, nothing is mentioned. Karl MAN 23:26, 12 May 2008 (CEST)

That should be fine I imagine you mean to include the text the same way the cover artist is displayed in other templates with a small message saying used with permission from ______ in a small font size --Dark Lord Xander4 08:38, 13 May 2008 (CEST)

A great template, first of all :) Regarding the "number of Phantom works" space, I think that will be quite difficult to handle. Maybe "active years" might be better?

Concerning the "used with permission" aspect - It would be much better to have that information in the actual file, rather than include it every time the picture is used. This is also the standard Wiki work procedure. Pjär 11:04, 13 May 2008 (CEST)

That is what i thought and one of the reasons i didn't include anything --Dark Lord Xander4 11:29, 13 May 2008 (CEST)

Do you mean it should be written into the actual image, or is it enough to include the info in the file article? Andreas 13:47, 13 May 2008 (CEST)

No i meant the file Article :) --Dark Lord Xander4 14:04, 13 May 2008 (CEST)

I removed the number of creations for now, we need to come up with something better there. Andreas 14:40, 10 September 2008 (CEST)

Agreed it was only ever meant to be a filler Dark Lord Xander6 08:28, 11 September 2008 (CEST)

Shade of Color

I am a little doubtful of the shade of the green color in which the creator name is put. I think the shade is too dark; the creator name becomes to hard to read. Karl MAN 6 16:05, 14 May 2008 (CEST)

Like i have said previously if you don't like something about something i have created then think up a way to improve it and do so. this being my first template i decided to do basic green just happened to be the colour i selected when making it to show which areas should be colored maybe a colour related to the phantom should be used since its a template for people who create the phantom --Dark Lord Xander4 08:22, 15 May 2008 (CEST)

I have made some changes and I think it is a little better now, though it could probably be improved. Karl MAN--130.236.60.34 18:09, 15 May 2008 (CEST)
