  1. [03:07] <+Neumannz> We can start
  2. 10[03:07] <Pea14733> First Agenda then
  3. [03:07] <+Neumannz> Someone logging?
  4. 10[03:07] <Pea14733> Regarding gif animations: Currently there is no example page on how they should be optimally dealt with
  5. 10[03:07] <Pea14733> Me
  6. 10[03:08] <Pea14733> Do they clutter the page, remove the focus from the text if there are too many of them, especially on ability pages where the descriptions are often very short? Should the numerous ability animations that change from game to game be moved to the gallery space or kept at one location of the page instead (probably tabbed)?
  7. 10[03:08] <Pea14733> What should be their optimal or at least maximum height and width? This is important considering the game they are created from (handheld or console, 4:3, 16:9 or other) and how the page is watched (desktop resolution, mobile resolution etc.). As the wiki image renderer (which automatically resizes an image to the desired dimensions) is limited for gif animations regarding file size and frame number, should the animations uploaded and/or updated in these dimensions?
  8. [03:09] <+Neumannz> That's a lot of issues
  9. [03:10] <KeybladeSpyMaste> Aaaaannnnd....I'm lost
  10. 10[03:10] <Pea14733> As expected from Shard
  11. [03:10] <+Neumannz> Let's start from the top
  12. [03:10] <auror> alright
  13. 10[03:10] <Pea14733> I think we can make "Appearance" section on the bottom or something and then we tab it for games
  14. 10[03:10] <Pea14733> IF it's too cluttered, that is
  15. [03:10] <auror> Pea14733: Don't we already do this for gallery?
  16. 10[03:11] <Pea14733> Can we tab the gallery?
  17. [03:11] <+Neumannz> Hmm
  18. 10[03:11] <Pea14733> Because seeing FFWiki's magic articles' gallery is like REALLY cluttered even in their gallery
  19. [03:12] <+Neumannz> Here are a couple options
  20. [03:13] <+Neumannz> One, move all gifs into a gallery, except for one
  21. [03:13] <+Neumannz> With the one at the top
  22. [03:14] <+Neumannz> Or

  24. [03:14] <FM|Phone> Am. Late?
  25. 10[03:14] <Pea14733> Lol
  26. [03:14] <+Neumannz> All of them at the top, but tabbed
  27. [03:14] <auror> FM|Phone: I'll pm you current topic
  28. [03:14] <KeybladeSpyMaste> FM, you're here!
  29. 10[03:14] <Pea14733> Hmm ....
  30. 10[03:15] <Pea14733> I think all of them tabbed at the top
  31. [03:15] <FM|Phone> So, we're still on gifs?
  32. 10[03:15] <Pea14733> Yes
  33. [03:15] <+Neumannz> Like how we have tabbed infoboxes
  34. [03:16] <+Neumannz> Only without the actual infobox
  35. [03:16] <auror> I like that
  36. [03:16] <Sora1995> well, it seems like the LP's went to hell
  37. [03:16] <Sora1995> maybe we should start them back up again..
  38. 10[03:16] <Pea14733> Add it to the agenda
  39. [03:17] <Uxie|LR> I tried to do an LP for KHFM, but it didn't work out
  40. [03:17] <FM|Phone> In that case, I'll take a few minutes to do some things and then I'll return on my Laptop
  41. [03:17] <+Neumannz> What was the probably
  42. [03:17] <FM|Phone> Phone irc is bad :/
  43. [03:17] <+Neumannz> It's not so bad
  44. [03:17] <FM|Phone> So brb
  45. [03:18] <FM|Phone> It is with auto correct
  46. [03:18] <+Neumannz> It just means I can't really look at the website
  47. 10[03:18] <Pea14733> Tirn it off ._.
  48. 10[03:18] <Pea14733> *TUrn
  49. 10[03:18] <Pea14733> Well what do you guys think about the GIFs
  50. 10[03:18] <Pea14733> KSM, Uxie, Sora?
  51. [03:18] <Sora1995> eh?
  52. [03:18] <Sora1995> oh
  53. [03:19] <Sora1995> i don't got on the wiki TOO much
  54. [03:19] <FM|Phone> That's long-winded when I can alternatively just use the laptop
  55. [03:19] <Sora1995> so i can't give input
  56. [03:19] <FM|Phone> But nvr mind
  57. 09[03:19] * Quits: FM|Phone (5eae9e14@gateway/web/freenode/ip.94.174.158.20) (Quit: Page closed)
  58. [03:19] <KeybladeSpyMaste> hmmm...I don't really know.
  59. [03:19] <KeybladeSpyMaste> Isn't there usually just one gif per page?
  60. 10[03:19] <Pea14733> No
  61. [03:19] <+Neumannz> For many one-shots
  62. [03:20] <+Neumannz> But a lot have many gifs
  63. [03:20] <+Neumannz> Like magic
  64. 10[03:20] <Pea14733> http://www.khwiki.com/Blizzard
  65. [03:20] <+Neumannz> And recurring abilities
  66. 09[03:21] * Joins: Byzantinefire (4648aaf8@gateway/web/freenode/ip.70.72.170.248)
  67. [03:21] <KeybladeSpyMaste> ok, I see the problem
  68. 08[03:21] * Retrieving #KHWiki-noticeboard modes...
  69. [03:21] <+Neumannz> So either a gallery or tabs would do the trick
  70. [03:21] <KeybladeSpyMaste> Yeah, I guess the tabbed idea works
  71. [03:22] <KeybladeSpyMaste> A gallery will still distract you: from the other gifs
  72. [03:22] <+Neumannz> ?
  73. 10[03:23] <Pea14733> So, the tab idea?
  74. [03:23] <auror> yeah, the tab idea works
  75. [03:23] <KeybladeSpyMaste> I'm looking at the blizzard article. As I watch one gif (right now, I'm looking at the one under the 358 section), I'm distracted by another one (the BBS one.
  76. 10[03:24] <Pea14733> Then let's go to the size of GIFs
  77. [03:24] <+Neumannz> ok
  78. [03:25] <KeybladeSpyMaste> is this how big they should be uploaded, or how big they should appear on the actual page?
  79. [03:26] <auror> oh, I see what you mean Keyblade0
  80. [03:26] <auror> however I think that gif is just inconsistently bigger than the rest on Blizzard
  81. [03:26] <+Neumannz> Are we talking about pixels or file size
  82. 10[03:27] <Pea14733> BTW
  83. 10[03:27] <Pea14733> Kryten's comment
  84. 10[03:27] <Pea14733> I can't make the meeting, but I feel that the animations should be no larger than 300px wide, and otherwise natural height; we can probably do with one lead animation and the rest in the gallery, unless there is too much image-less space on the article (arbitrary)
  85. [03:28] <+Neumannz> Yeah
  86. 10[03:28] <Pea14733> How big is 300px?
  87. [03:28] <+Neumannz> About the size of an infobox
  88. [03:28] <auror> yep
  89. 10[03:29] <Pea14733> Oh
  90. 10[03:29] <Pea14733> that's kinda big enough
  91. 10[03:29] <Pea14733> Although it'll be really small for those widescreen games
  92. [03:29] <+Neumannz> Easily
  93. [03:30] <+Neumannz> Not terribly
  94. [03:31] <+Neumannz> Check out the ones for bbs
  95. 10[03:31] <Pea14733> Oh, okay
  96. 10[03:31] <Pea14733> We'll go with Kryten's idea then
  97. [03:31] <KeybladeSpyMaste> I think that's pretty big
  98. [03:32] <Sora1995> well
  99. [03:32] <Sora1995> if we're talking about images
  100. [03:32] <KeybladeSpyMaste> As in, I think its fine
  101. [03:32] <Sora1995> should we wait to talk about them until 2.5?
  102. 10[03:32] <Pea14733> Why?
  103. [03:32] <Sora1995> or rather should we update them when 2.5 is launched
  104. 10[03:33] <Pea14733> We'll update them I think
  105. [03:33] <KeybladeSpyMaste> I think we could wait for 2.5 to update the related images. It's only a couple months, and then we have HD gifs
  106. [03:33] <KeybladeSpyMaste> The rest, however, can/should be updated
  107. 10[03:33] <Pea14733> okay
  108. [03:34] <+Neumannz> I wonder what makes some gifs not play at certain sizes
  109. [03:35] <Sora1995> well, should we wait to do LP's until after 2.5 is out?
  110. [03:35] <+Neumannz> Like, I just changed the size of the lead gif for zantetsuken
  111. [03:35] <KeybladeSpyMaste> I think we should wait on the LP's till we finish discussing the rest of the issues
  112. [03:36] <Sora1995> eh, it just popped in my head
  113. [03:36] <Sora1995> switching between things
  114. [03:36] <Sora1995> so if i go out of order, sorry
  115. [03:36] <Sora1995> ping me when we're ready to talk about them
  116. [03:37] <KeybladeSpyMaste> Nah, its fine.
  117. [03:37] <+Neumannz> Someone else take a quick look at zantetsuken please?
  118. [03:38] <KeybladeSpyMaste> Hmmm.
  119. 10[03:39] <Pea14733> It sitll moves when i change the size to 500px
  120. [03:40] <+Neumannz> But not 300?
  121. 10[03:40] <Pea14733> ._.
  122. 10[03:41] <Pea14733> What
  123. 10[03:41] <Pea14733> How come it stopped moving
  124. [03:41] <+Neumannz> I was afraid of that
  125. [03:41] <+Neumannz> We'll need to figure out what makes that happen
  126. [03:42] <+Neumannz> And make it a rule for uploading gifs
  127. [03:42] <+Neumannz> We'll probably have to ask shard or erry
  128. 10[03:44] <Pea14733> Maybe
  129. 10[03:44] <Pea14733> It's because
  130. 10[03:44] <Pea14733> We resized the GIF?
  131. 10[03:44] <Pea14733> But wait, that GIFs from Blizzad page still moves ...
  132. [03:45] <+Neumannz> Other resized gifs are fine
  133. [03:45] <+Neumannz> Like the second one on zantetsuken
  134. [03:46] <+Neumannz> But there's a huge difference in number of frames and file size
  135. [03:46] <KeybladeSpyMaste> currently searching Google for answers
  136. [03:46] <+Neumannz> So either or both of those could be an issue
  137. 10[03:46] <Pea14733> It's fine when the size is 450px ...
  138. [03:47] <+Neumannz> The natural size is 480
  139. 10[03:47] <Pea14733> yeah
  140. [03:48] <+Neumannz> There should probably be a size limit
  141. [03:49] <+Neumannz> We'll ask the guys who know to figure out what it should be
  142. 10[03:49] <Pea14733> Okay

  144. [03:50] <+Neumannz> But 300 is a good size
  145. [03:50] <+Neumannz> Yes?
  146. [03:51] <FifteenthMember> How are we doing?
  147. 10[03:51] <Pea14733> Yes
  148. [03:51] <KeybladeSpyMaste> FM, We're trying to figure out why certain gifs don't work
  149. [03:52] <FifteenthMember> Err, pea can you give me a log of the roundtable from start to present please?
  150. [03:53] <FifteenthMember> Or anyone else :P
