Picture
This is good? I re-sized the image like you said. Thanks for the suggestion. ^^ 9 もりや すわこ 14:35, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I even added it to the main page of it as well. :] Is there any other suggestion you have with any other? 9 もりや すわこ 14:51, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * So...what do you suggest? Put it in the Luna Portal template, or...? 9 もりや すわこ 15:07, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * I see, well, I don't know if I can edit template for the portal page and re-place the image, I worry that the past creator that made it would be quite upset if I were to change it to the better looking Luna picture. Also, I like the earth picture you posted, it's very nice; but I think the revised one is good enough, though, I could put it on this page if you want me to. Sorry if I am disappointing you in any way, I don't mean to. But, I do appreciate your input. ^^ 9 もりや すわこ 16:20, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Your welcome. ^^; By the way, if you not mind me asking, does 'Ta' mean thanks? Sorry if I asked, but I wasn't sure at first what it meant. 9 もりや すわこ 17:00, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

 * I see, because for a moment, I read it as either a transliteration of the hiragana/katakana letter (which is た [hiragana] and タ [katakana]) or a Norwegian/Swedish word (case your wonder, I like learning language, so I tend to know some words of some languages). Thanks for clearing it up, now I know. :] 9 もりや すわこ 17:16, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Here you go, is this good? ^^ 9 もりや すわこ 12:42, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

Categories
Hey, Imperium Guy, I just wanted to let you know that you shouldn't be adding certain categories to some pages. It is unnecessary to add the "Timeline" category to pages of a timeline (Frontier (Canadian Independence), for example), along with "Alien Space Bats." These tags are only used for Portal Pages. It's best if you either revert your edits or remove those categories from the pages. ChrisL123 17:19, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

Quite. Not one of the categories you added today were needed/valid at all. Been that case with virtually all of the ones you've done. I've reverted all the ones you did today.

All it really is is vandalism, and, it seems like all you are doing is needlessly adding them to get badges, also against the rules. As such, this is a warning.

Lordganon 19:26, August 4, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry guys, and I know this is going to sound really stupid, but what are portal pages? Imperium Guy 10:45, August 5, 2011 (UTC)

Have a look in the Timelines and Alien Space Bats categories. Basically, the so-called "front" page of a timeline.

For instance, the "1983: Doomsday" page goes in the "Timelines" category, but any other pages in the timeline go in either the category "1983: Doomsday" or one of its subsidiaries, usually one of the subsidiaries. Principle works with all timelines.

Lordganon 11:38, August 5, 2011 (UTC)

Oh, okay. Thanks for that. :) Imperium Guy 17:26, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

ASB articles are NOT timelines. Lordganon 18:53, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Contents box
Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "contents box". If you're talking about the "portal box" (as I call it) at the bottom of the portal pages and articles of the timeline, I'd be glad to show you what to do.

Now, there's a few things to this. It is pretty complicated to explain step by step because of how many levels there, but I have typed out a sample "portalbox" using your timeline as an example. Below the copyable text are comments dealing with each line.

 : The name of your timeline. This will not be shown on the portal box.  : The background and text colours of the box your title is placed into; if you want to have special types of colours in your portalbox, you can ; it has different colours and their codes that can be placed into this section to change the colour of your title section.  : The background and text colours of the boxes the articles will be shown in.  : Your article name, the first thing you see in a portalbox.  : This is extremely important. You will see these things called "groups," and each will have to be numbered appropriately, depending on how many topics are in your portalbox. These can be edited to show different topics. Under each group, you can have any subject you want, be it people, nations, articles dealing with history, extras, etc., and each "lists" will deal with this subject. I had listed just so you see how it looks like.  : This is wear your articles go. They can be seperated by bullets (•).

If you copy and paste the writing in the grey box as you see it, the portalbox should look like this:

And, of course, you can add or remove any article that I've included above you want. Enjoy! ChrisL123 18:09, August 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Main headings and sub-headings...Oh, that box. Well, if it doesn't come up by itself you can add  underneath the opening paragraph(s). But I hope you get to use the portal box to, and yes it's editable :P ChrisL123 21:34, August 9, 2011 (UTC)

Flags
O_O As much as I would like to help, and I'm deeply sorry to say this but, I can not do it. The reasons:
 * I only have Gimp. While it is a free source, it is not like photo-shop as it doesn't have the magical background eraser that photo-shop has (that rids of one colour in one click). Instead, I would have add "alpha layer" onto it, and erasing it manually, which consumes up time and won't look as good.
 * Also, I can only make simple flag. To see example, look at the images of this category of my time-line. As you can see, most of it looks rushed, and doesn't look professional. And with some, you could tell like with the Coat of Arms of Brazil for example, where I erased the independence date from OTL to make it fit in my ATL. While some may look good, seeing them in full view, you able to see some of the inaccuracies and not properly filled. I also used MS Paint and create.swf (with the create.swf I re-size images and stuff with that one to put on flags easier. better then doing it all with Gimp and gives me more precise location to put them on. Example: Torii shrines on some my flags).

If I had photo-shop, then my flags wouldn't look as bad (though still un-professional). It also be easy for me to create a bit more complex flag, but not too complex.



Again, I am terribly sorry that I not able to help. :[ 9 もりや すわこ 12:21, August 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * You could ask Oerwinde to help you, he is expert of making flag and has photo-shop. 9 もりや すわこ 12:28, August 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Al-right, I decided to do it anyway, despite my dis-advantage. I tried to do best I can, hope you like. :] 9 もりや すわこ 20:39, August 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * [[Image:OTL India and ATL Nepali Kingdom comparison (World of the Rising Sun).png|225px|thumb|The comparison of OTL India to ATL Nepali Kingdom]]
 * Your very welcome! ^^ And thank you. :] 9 もりや すわこ 20:58, August 13, 2011 (UTC)
 * Why thanks again! The UN emblem with Japan and the Rising Sun was for my time-line, actually. :] 9 もりや すわこ 21:02, August 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * Ah, thank you for adding it to the template box. I'm still kinda a beginner at using coded templates ^^;;. Thanks for help sorting it out! :] 9 もりや すわこ 21:15, August 13, 2011 (UTC)[[Image:World_Rising_Sun_2010CE.png|thumb|233px|Location of Nepali Kingdom in 2010CE, click to expand]]
 * About that, well if you had read both the article and the main page of the time-line (and by that I mean here), you can see that history has formed completely different. In my Nepali Kingdom article, the flag combines Nepal and India's flag together (though Nepal still runs the country.) instead of it being just Nepal flag itself (more unity, etc.) And as you can see by the image, the grey is OTL India. And when looked on this full map image, you can see that China has some parts of OTL India (it has it because China developed differently) while
 * Siam has a little portion of it (again, developed differently). Though, Nepali Kingdom still holds most of India in the ATL. However, if World War 4 were to happen in my ATL (don't know when, haven't decided yet.) I will let Nepal would be able to get back most of India after that war (though Siam will still hold a small portion of it, as Siam and Nepal are allies.).

And in my ATL, he happened to be one of the leaders to expand Nepal, and expanded it, by the way. Also in my ATL, that flag just happens to be used as an alternative flag of the Nepali Kingdom. 9 もりや すわこ 22:05, August 13, 2011 (UTC)



I have made my own version of the Venus flag. What do you think about it? — Hellerick 05:21, August 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * UN_flag_with_Venus_map.svg
 * I am not sure if I unsderstand your request about my "thingy" correctly. Did you mean an exact copy of the UN flag with the map of Venus in it? Then here it is:
 * But I think it's kinda lame to have the flags of the Earth and Venus so similar to each other. — Hellerick [[Image:Flag of Divnogorsk.svg|20px]] 13:25, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

Reuploading Images
Just so you know, it isn't necessary to copy an .svg image that's located on one page, reupload it as .png and place it on another page. All you need to do is copy the file name of that .svg image. ChrisL123 15:57, August 13, 2011 (UTC)

Pointless Edits
In regards to your recent edit to the 1983: Doomsday page, please note that pointless editing for badges constitutes edit spam and is a bannable offence. Oerwinde 07:28, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

You added a 3rd exclaimation point. Pointless edit.Oerwinde 20:15, August 14, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not mad
Sorry for the delay. I am not mad, just disappointed. There is something you need to understand. This may be an open timeline that is open to ideas, but this is not a timeline for you to adopt and expand at your will. Not only have you tried to expand the timeline outside this website, you are also adding to existing articles without bringing it up in the talk page, adding flags which have not been discussed, and reuploading already existing images. I would appreciate it if you stop and take it slow. I have already reverted and removed several of your edits, there is far too much to handle. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 20:46, August 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hello again. I just wanted to let you know that I made mention of you to the TSPTS. I personally don't want this to go any further. I know that your heart was in the right place, and shouldn't be punished for that. If you would like to, you can continue to work on the timeline, but I will insist that you follow the following rules:


 * Understand that I am the admin. Do not cross that line or try to usurp this timeline again. I have the final decision on EVERYTHING.
 * Please bring up any additional expansions or ideas to the Main Talk page or myself.
 * Understand that you are not the only user who is interested in TTL. Work on your articles only, not others. I have only agreed to allow you to work on the Federated States of Ishtar. I was lenient on you for working on New Florida and Leda, but I would appreciate it if you leave other articles alone until you have completed those three.
 * You always leave the proposal template on the top of any new pages (no exceptions). I will remove them when I feel the time is right to canonize them.
 * If you are going to commission works from other users to add to the timeline, please bring those works to the talk page before adding anything.
 * Absolutely, do not repost works that have already been posted here. This is a Wiki rule (not mine). There is absolutely no need for this.


 * If you cross this line again, I will be bring up disciplinary measures to the TSPTF. I hope that I have not scared you away from this timeline or website. Please understand that I am only annoyed at what you have been doing, not the information or ideas you have brought up in TTL. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 15:26, August 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * It's okay. I am so relieved that you are taking this well. As long a this will not continue, lets just try to put this behind us. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 19:47, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

I know you do, that is why I don't want you to leave ^_^ Again, lets just put this behind us. So, I see that you have been contracting Hellerick to design flags for the United Nations of Venus. I have to say that they are clever, and I would love to make them part of the timeline. And to top it off, Bobalugee1940 was pretty keen on not wanting me to remove the New Florida flag (which I also like). The only way I can say it is... I love to eat pie, I just don't like to have it thrown in my face XD. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 19:57, August 15, 2011 (UTC)

Flag for colony?
Hello, just thought if you have a flag for your moon colony? I started the article here. All I need is the pro



vinces and flags. Any ideas?

Sorry if I disturbed you. 9 もりや すわこ 20:05, August 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * An SVG file!? The flag looks nice though.


 * I shall enlarge the flag so I can edit it in Gimp easier. What do you want me to edit with the flag? 9 もりや すわこ 15:15, August 17, 2011 (UTC)

Shattered Into Pieces, Like Glass
Read here, the main page of why the continents are this way; here too, explains a bit more.

Yes, I realised that there happen to be 2 Middle Easts. Oh well, too late. :P I was just trying to have the same land as OTL (just arranged differently of course), but MS Paint really isn't that good to do so. Then again, I would end up having it more land either way, lol. 9 もりや すわこ 16:31, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

The Third Riech
Can I be a Mod?

DeanSims

So I can keep the 400,000 Hindustan soldiers in my Army of Anglo-India?

DeanSims 19:25, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

Youve got a deal, just go to the game and accept the alliance offer and "send" me back the 500,000 Hindustan troops.

DeanSims 19:30, August 27, 2011 (UTC)

No you just add it to the bottom of the most recent turn in bold, stateing that 500,000 Hindustan troops are re-enlisted in the British Army of Anglo-Hindustan and that Hindustan agrees to join the Eurasian Powers.
