Date of birth

Hi there! When I was setting up your page, I changed Voss's DOB to 2365 because otherwise she'd only be 23 (the current year is 2391). However, if you want her to still be born in 2367, that's fine of course. Just wanted you to make sure you understood the current dating system in SB118! ◄ Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr.

A step by step guide to cropping from Rich

1. Find your image. Example: File:TristamCore3.jpg.

Normally, if we put in [[File:TristamCore3.jpg|150px]], we get
TristamCore3.jpg
However, what if I want to make a perfect square 150x150 crop of this image? Use Template:Crop.

2. Type {{Crop|Name of File|New Width|New Height}}

So, we'd put in {{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150}}, to get
TristamCore3.jpg

You can further adjust the position of the crop or the zoom as outlined in the instructions for Template:Crop or add a link= to the image.

For instance, if we type in

{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2}}

it gives you

TristamCore3.jpg

which is a cropped image of Tristan 150 px in width x 150 px in height with an adjustment of 10 pixels up and 30 pixels to the left to center his head and 2x zoom of the original cropped image.

Adding a link= to that can make the image link to his profile:

{{Crop|TristamCore3.jpg|150|150|10|30|2|link=Core, Tristam}}
TristamCore3.jpg


So this is basically the guide I got sent by the wiki-overlord himself after I pointed out to him that I fail miserably at cropping. This is the response I got. It's surprisingly (and don't tell him I said this) not that hard after I read it over and over again. XD Sky Blake (talk) 20:13, 16 June 2014 (CDT)
