Hi Malvodion, welcome to BloodsportsTV Wiki!

"So, I wanted to see if I could help you people in whatever it is you are missing (Perhaps by expanding that items section, which lacks the item components? It'd take time though.)."

Well, you could, of course. :) I've already started to add the components to a few pages - like here Troll-Rabbit's Foot. But as you said, it needs time. We just had to add quickly the common basics over the last two days, so some parts are still not so much covered as they should be. (Like gameplay and etc.) I should have a screenshot of every item which has components from the current game version - so I could go on over the next days and add them, or if you like to, I could give you access to a folder with these images.


 * What currently is missing though, are all the icons for implants. We just didn't get them with the last image dump we got.


 * We are also working on abilities, of which most have just an insufficient (or "basic") description.

"I got a small concern/complaint though: The wiki's skin."

I can see your concern with the flickering, when one is scrolling the page. I think I could reduce that effect a little in putting up smaller headers instead of filling the whole bg ofthe boxes. If that is not enough and you are still suffering, we can try something different, of course. I'd hate it if I had to put an epilepsy warning up...

"Also, while I imagine its intentional, having the entire body of the wiki smashed against the left sidebar while leaving a large empty space on the right looks kinda off/weird (both windows are clippling with each other too.). Would it be possible for you to toy with it a little? I'm sure future users would appreciate the changes."

While I can relate to the issue with the blue-striped bg, I don't understand the problem with having the sidebar and content touch and leaving that bit of space to the right(in this case we'd have to change a ton of our wikis). (Just saying: Space... the final frontier...) Personally, in this case I'm glad to see a bit of the background (on my monitor, the content is also pretty much centered) and as long as the sidebar and the links are working, there is actually nothing speaking against it. Would you need the extra space on the right?

Re
"Oh, I see. Will there ever be a more elaborate upgrade progression display on the item templates beyond a couple of icons to fill in the large blank area? Otherwise I think it might end up needing to be changed to look like the ability infoboxes once the pages start getting more content."

It was a test on how the boxes could look like, the "plate" background is actually from the game, so I thought, this one could probably fit as an infobox. I'd have to run a test, if this background can be made scalable somehow (probably technically not possible). Quite a lot of the icons have much text, so the space would fill up - just not for every icon page alike. But if you like, I can of course set up all the boxes like the current ability boxes and let the "plate"-background stay something we can consider just a "great idea on paper". (Only will take some time till it's done.)


 * Set up, but not implemented yet (need more time for this) - tooltips. (Like on infinity crisis) Aye, only if you like that.

"Maybe, it'd certainlly help to have less of the screen covered by it. I have little knowledge about making wiki skins so I can't really help nor make any good suggestions on how to improve this, so I apologize for that."

If it helps you, I can remove the right margin. I'm fine with it, if you enjoy wikiing more.

"Ah, its meant to look like its centered, I see. The clipping is still a tad jarring, but I don't think it'd really be worth messing with the layout just for that."

I can have a look, if I can add a tiny space like on our wiki sidebar boxes below and align it. Happy Wikiing!
