The screenshot used for epic boss could be better: Wrath Demon isn't even seen centered here. Howdy! I'm still trying to see if still 160x300 px images will be better than raw images like the ones I used. A little unorganized to look at, but the pics are "unedited" so it's more legit. We will see :)

And a bit blown up? Like..? ~ It's blown up like a balloon, can't see any unnecessary content yet (didn't take a good look before), but it just feels that way.

Same feeling here... maybe this one could be used instead?



While the battle view offers more visuals & better background, i think it's the format used in there that doesn't fit the current main page style (=a widescreen screenshot isn't fitting atm). Why i suggest a simple edit of a epic boss on world map (cut from the one i uploaded earlier). Tried putting it in center by it's name banner, but that doesn't work, as it's body is showing more on the left side.

Now after taking a longer look at main page, some more things strike me:

Find the pic at the top reading "Welcome to the Knights & Dragons Wiki" could link to some navigation page (instead of to it's file), like something as the mainnav template.

The pic for World Map is simply amiss, as the players castle is just a small part of it... but i somehow see a problem getting the whole thing in that small window, heh. Maybe it could use a mesh-up of several locations instead? That would reduce required space big time & allows for placement of locations in whatever format is required (only limited by their minimum size of course).

"Useful Ressources" has the same links as found under welcome pic, therefore duplicates (just explained ones). One of them should be removed.

"Staff Members" shows currently active ones... but full list shows even less? oO already seen some inactive admin on here that could be added (forgot his name).

Concerning Side Panel... Viewing with low resolution hides the most upper right box right behind "Notice", not sure what's supposed to be there, can't change resolution right now either.

Most visited sites lists ... the Main Page itself :P, there is probably a "ignore"-tag somewhere to fix this.

Would personally like to see the "Current Event" template to show up right under Welcome pic, but... that's just me i bet (keeping right side free and starting side panel after template). ;)

Else it looks good. And sorry about the long post, wasn't supposed to take so long to explain, heh.
