==Wow!==
Wow, Houdini & Silver . . . great job!  Though I must say that I hardly would consider taking Bree to a party to be considered a "mission."  Nevertheless, now that the page has been created, it can really take off! --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 16:02, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

the whole bree party was just a sort of thing i put as a guide for me. if you want to take that down go ahead--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 16:05, 29 July 2007 (CDT)

:Now that this page is probably going to have a major makeover, I'd like to say that IMO, the first real "Mission" is probably the Fake Ceremony.  But then again, that's by my understanding of the word "Mission."  Anyone else have a different take on the word?? --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 17:23, 31 July 2007 (CDT)
::::Go ahead and take it off, im cool with it.--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 17:28, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

== Missionbox Template==
Given how this page has expanded and attracted more attention, you may wish to use a template per mission to spruce it up (similar to the template per character on the [[Characters]] page). My first draft of a template can be found here: [[Template:Missionbox]]. However, note that pretty much everything inside this Missionbox template is configurable so go ahead and try out different border widths, background colours, font sizing etc. Hope this is useful...

::I like the template a lot thankyou for it.--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 17:17, 31 July 2007 (CDT)
:::Feel free to play around and post example usages here. It's just enough to get you started for now. I'll come back and tweak later once I have some feedback and know how you want to use it. I want to adapt it to fit a 4:3 image and then crop all the widescreen mission images to 4:3 for consistency. But I'll wait for feedback first. Another idea is to create a mirror image template with the mission-logo and pic on the right hand side. The list of mission boxes could then be alternated left/right/left/etc. [[User:Psmith|Psmith]] 17:36, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

::my favorite is the one on the bottom i like it on the right--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 18:07, 31 July 2007 (CDT)
:I like it on the right too --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 18:25, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

== -r- or psmith ==
User:-R-, also is starting a sandbox with a different design. So which do you like more, Psmith's or -R-'s.
:You can view mine [[User:-R-/Sandbox/LGMissions|here (LG)]] and [[User:-R-/Sandbox/KMMissions|here (KM)]]. We may also find to way to cross mine and Psmith's. {{User:-R-/signature|10:35 PM}}
::I think a cross between the two would look sweet (I really like PSmith's "mini-file" feel to his, and I also like Randy's borders), but I have no idea what kind of code-nightmare that would mean! --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 23:50, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

::::::::ya seriously--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 23:53, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

:::I hate to say it, but I like Psmith's better. It has more of a "missions file" feel to it, like a detective. I don't know, that probably didn't make sense. <span style="background:DarkSlateGray">[[User:SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">&nbsp;&nbsp;'''•Silver•'''&nbsp;&nbsp;</font>]] <small>[[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">Contribs</font>]]</small></span> 11:21, 1 August 2007 (CDT)

== Added Missionbox to my sandbox ==

Notice [[User:-R-/Sandbox/LGMissions/File|here]] how I added the "Missionbox" to my template. The problem: notice how the "Should They Meet Jonas" title's hight expands under the template. Does anyone know how to fix that? Plus I made another version of the missionbox to fit the size correctly in my sandbox as well. View it [[User:-R-/Sandbox/Missionbox|here]]. {{User:-R-/signature|3:32 PM}}
:Hmmm . . . well, now that I see the two combined, I don't like the double title (one on the "file" and one at the corner above it).  Anyway to remove that extra bar?  If not, then we may just have to one style . . . . --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 15:56, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
::I was thinking that we could get rid of it, too, but a lot of other people think that the bar makes it a mission box... ugh...... this is complicated. {{User:-R-/signature|4:05 PM}}
::Look [[User:-R-/Sandbox/LGMissions/File/No_Image|here]], I took off the bar and the title. Better? {{User:-R-/SignatureD|10:21 PM}}
:Hmmm . . . I reckon' you misunderstood me.  I liked the Mission Bar & Title on the "file".  It was the bar on top of the file that I wasn't too much of a fan of. Sorry! --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 00:06, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
::Oh, the thing is, is that the bar above it is the only thing that can be used for navigation and easier editing without having to deal with a lot of code. Just, wait. I think I might have an idea. We can turn the title on the file into a header! I'll try it out in a minute. {{User:-R-/SignatureD|12:53 AM}}
:::O.K., that didn't work. *sigh* there has to be a way of navigation. This is harder than we thought, eh? {{User:-R-/SignatureD|1:17 AM}}
:Maybe we should just choose one method or the other, Randy.  I hate to be driving you into wiki-codes that ''I'' don't even fully understand! --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 01:25, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
::Hmm, yeah. I have had enough experimenting for one day. {{User:-R-/SignatureD|1:28 AM}}
::Come on!  Where's everyone else??  It can't just be me & Randy here!  This is a pretty big issue! --[[User:Phoenician|Pheon]] 00:06, 2 August 2007 (CDT)
::::Actually i have been reading this but you guys lost me.--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 00:37, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

Dudes and dudesses.  I am totally lost here XD  But personally, and no offense to whoemver created the other one, you did a fine job, I vote wholeheartedly for Psmith's.  It's very "Missions"-y and very appropriate for the page.  I think it rocks, personally!  --[[User:Zoey|Zoey]] 03:47, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

== Added Psmith's MissionboxRHS ==

I have been looking over the discussions here, and I would say that it's safe to assume that Psmith's [[Template:MissionboxRHS|MissionboxRHS]] was the concensus. I have added it to the page, with minor glitches. Perhaps a more wiki-code-familiar person could fix those. Anyways, enjoy! <span style="background:DarkSlateGray">[[User:SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">&nbsp;&nbsp;'''•Silver•'''&nbsp;&nbsp;</font>]] <small>[[User talk:SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/SilverBULLETx3|<font color="white">Contribs</font>]]</small></span> 16:15, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

:you should make all of the pictures the same size
:so it doesn't look uneven--[[User:Houdini|Houdini]] 16:20, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

::I've evened it up and widened the boxes. [[User:Psmith|Psmith]] 20:06, 12 August 2007 (CDT)
