Now we have 2 Barnstars
- I agreed with you both, and felt we should have seperate Athletic & Academic Barnstars. I am really getting excited and I hope it brings in alot of editors to the project. Jccort (talk) 03:10, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I think it's for the best. Do you know how to set them up as templates? I have no idea myself... Zeng8r (talk) 14:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Your image uploads
I've noticed that you've uploaded a lot of images in JPG format. However, it is prefered that images are uploaded in lossless formats, such as PNG. This is easy to do, if a photograph, just copy and paste it into a graphics program, such as MS Paint, then when saving, select PNG as the type, as opposed to JPG. Don't believe me? Then check this out. Anyways, it would be more preactical and efficient if all images were in PNG. Thanks.--Porsche997SBS (talk) 04:20, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Ok. I tend to automatically save my to-be-uploaded stuff as jpegs, but it's not a big deal to save it in a different format. Zeng8r (talk) 14:01, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Oxford Round Table RfC
Hi, I see you edited the Oxford Round Table article. Do you think you could comment on the RfC on the ORT talk page? We have not yet gotten comments from outside editors like yourself. Thanks!Academic38 (talk) 19:26, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
- I looked it over and honestly have no idea if the suggested changes are for the best or not.
- Actually, it's a pet peeve of mine when editors who know nothing about a topic start tossing out opinions and blindly hacking at the article, arrogantly stating that their edits and suggestions should count for more because they're "uninvolved 3rd parties". Since I know nothing about the Oxford Round Table and only stumbled upon the controversy accidentally, I don't feel at all comfortable contributing any more than the little bit I've already done. Don't wanna be "That Guy", if you know what I mean.
- So nothing personal, but I'm going to step out of the OTR article discussion and stick to editing topics on which I'm more informed. Zeng8r (talk) 00:15, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
The University of Florida Barnstar
- I created the Barnstar. Please feel free to edit the award in any fashion that you choose. I just wanted to get it out there, but please tweak the Barnstar as you see fit. Thanks Jccort (talk) 00:51, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I Am That Perry Bruns
I did graduate Jesuit High School of Tampa in 1988. I'm surprised my writing skews young for you--most people have thought my writing made me sound like an old man from the age of 16 on.
Besides...there really aren't that many Brunses in general, and even fewer Perry Brunses on this planet. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one currently residing in North America. P.F. Bruns (talk) 05:02, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Wow! Dude, we served time together in the ol' JHS band! Email me when you get a chance, pls: zeng8r(at)verizon.net Zeng8r (talk) 15:57, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
Al Lang
My bad! I had no idea we were getting this at the same time...hopefully, I didn't overwrite anything you did. I'll check and see if everything I've done is OK as well! Glad to see I'm not the only one working on this, though ;-) EaglesFanInTampa 14:26, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- You saved first, and I think I cut and pasted your edits into the stuff I did. Just wanted to give you a heads-up in case I missed something. It's certainly an appropriate day to edit the article. Actually, I'm heading out to the (last) game pretty soon... Zeng8r (talk) 14:29, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

- Unfortunately, I can't, cause I'm working and I just took off yesterday to close out Chain of Lakes Park over in Winter Haven. Watching the Rays close two stadiums in as many days is really interesting; it could possibly be a third if the Reds can't get a deal with Sarasota to keep them in Ed Smith Stadium, either. Just eerie I say.... EaglesFanInTampa 14:38, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
