User talk:Sundassa
I've converted your crew nav to a new "Easy Template" version. Full instructions are available here: Template:Crew.
Among the New Features:
Simplified format to add officers
No more messy code! Makes it easier to edit position names and preview them to see if they fit correctly!
{{Tile|FIRST NAME|Last Name|UNIFORM COLOR|CURRENT POST|Roster Image}}
For example, just add:
{{Tile|Andrus|Jaxx|Red|Commanding Officer|JaxxSmall.jpg}}
to get the next officer's tile added to the nav.
| Commanding Officer Andrus Jaxx |
|---|
Automatic placement of blank portrait
Places the blank portrait roster image if no roster image specified. Example:
{{Tile|M'Wash||Blue|Science Officer}}
| Science Officer M'Wash |
|---|
Automatic resize of roster image
If an officer's roster image is too large for the nav, it will automatically crop and resize it to fit. Note that while this is a handy feature, it may not produce as nice an image as a properly prepared roster image.
| Commanding Officer Andrus Jaxx |
|---|
Support for Nicknames/Abbreviations
If an officer's name is too long for the nav. Example:
{{Tile|Cassandra|Egan Manno|NICKNAME=C. Egan Manno|Red|Commanding Officer|Roster-eganmanno.jpg}}
| Commanding Officer C. Egan Manno |
|---|
Simplified color names
Red, Gold, Blue, Teal, Violet, Black, Silver, Green
No need to change colspan
Table automatically keeps header and footer centered.
Ship placeholder image
Can be easily specified if there is an odd number of officers.
{{Shiptile|USS Apollo|Achilles.jpg}}
IMPORTANT NOTE
If an officer only has a single name, be sure to still put an extra "pipe" character | after their name.
{{Tile|T'Mar||Gold|Chief of Security|TMarSmall.jpg}}
| Chief of Security T'Mar |
|---|

For reference, this is the code generating the current version of the nav above:
{{Crew

|ROSTER PAGE = USS Apollo Crew
|NPC PAGE = USS Apollo NPC Personnel
|HISTORY PAGE = Apollo Crew History}}

NEW UPDATE! User Correctioning of Automatic Resize and Crop
You can now tell the template to zoom into your image and change positioning! Check out the image guide for the roster template as the basic principle is the same. Just add the extra numbers for your corrections to the end of the officer's code, with the first number being how far you want the image to move up (i.e., how far do you want to see more downward), the second number being how far to move the image left (see more to the right), and the third number being how many times to zoom the image. 1.2x is a good place to start.
Example Original:
| Intelligence Officer Tracey Townson |
|---|
Raw code for corrections:
{{Tile|Tracey|Townson|Black|Intelligence Officer|TraceyIntel uni.jpg|0|40|1.7}}
| Intelligence Officer Tracey Townson |
|---|
