Thanks :) I'm bored at work, so this is what I'm doing. ^^ --paitre

Change to your userpage

Sorry for the intrusion, I changed the {{Percent Bar}} template to allow people to choose the color of the bar, so I changed your page so that it will work for you as it was. If you want, you can now change the color of the "green" bar to some other color. --Chrisjander 00:51, 14 May 2007 (CDT)

Awesome, thanks Chris. I'm a wikicode newb :P

Lu Shang Progress

Something I've always wondered, but never bothered asking. Do you plan on pursuing Ebisu Fishing Rod after you get your Lu'Shangs? --Charitwo^Talk 21:07, 24 July 2007 (CDT)

Yeah, eventually. I realize that one is insanely hard, but I think the fishing stuff is interesting. Well, it's great filler when no one is online anyway :P -- Rickshaw 18:52, 28 July 2007 (CDT)

Template:Percent Bar

I have noticed you use this template on your userpage. I'm leaving this message here to inform you that there has been a second version of this template made, with a few revisions. Version 1, the one you currently use, had a few limitations when it was first created, but now that it's in such widespread use, it cannot be changed without messing up alot of pages (yours included).

So Version 2 was created. In this version, the bar is displayed the same way, but the template can do math for you. One of the more common uses for it is to record xp progress, and this template can now do that math. Instead of entering two percentages, put your current xp first, then your total xp second (no commas). This template will calculate the percentage for you and display it in bar form. Also, if you used the color option in version 1, this is still there, but in addition to this you can enter in an optional second color to define the "white" area, if you wish.

For more details, see Template:Percent Bar2. --◄Chrisjander► t/ c 04:31, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
