User blog:WikiPim/Swords and Potions wiki becomes a real asset

When you find several people from top guides noting this wiki as being a great resource for their gameplay, you know that it has reached a status of being a real asset to the game of Swords and Potions.

That said, this wiki is nearing 500 pages and it has been increasing in a steady and strong pace this month. Thanks to all those who contributed their inspiration, knowledge, time and effort to make new templates, insert loads of new information, add critique to the way the front page looked like and voiced their sadness to see information removed due to a redirect being made because of double information. Have added that info to the FAQ so that everyone can read it still. Did you know i revealed a secret which isn't known by many yet? Check it out (question number 14)!

I think it's fair to say that even though i am admin, this does not mean i am leader of this wiki. Yust a casual contributor with some extra options. But somehow people find comfort in the fact that another person has those rights and can be looked up towards. That's ok. If it suits you that's fine by me.

Today i got around to finally making the front page look better. Still not what i have in mind but it's getting there slowly. Have taken a look at Dragon Age wiki and i was like drooling: I would LOVE to have such an entrance. Sadly my talent in making pictures is about as limited as paint is. And i ain't that good at it, beside doing some cutting, plastering, and other small time stuff.

Looking through several other huge wiki's like Mass Effect wiki i was thinking, why not... the code ain't too hard. So i made a small table, worked on that for some time and finally posted it. Let me know if you like it. I personally believe it's much better then what the front page was originally looking. But it's not by far there.

Funny thing is that a lot of featured game related wiki's don't have that many pages on them. They do have a better front page though. If anyone feels tempted, please do add what you know about templates, cool looking front pages and wicked pictures. I can always help, but don't expect me to do all the changes, i really need you to help.

Some people voice their appreciation on what i do. Thanks for that. More is offcourse always welcome!

And to those who want a sig as cool as mine (or even cooler), get in touch.
