I wish there were an ss13 wiki equivalent of a barnstar to give you, because your dedication is truly impressive. 🌟--Noah Buttes (talk) 19:39, 6 May 2017 (GMT)

Hi, Studenterhue! Remember me? I was Karl Kingsley. We experimented on those artifacts together. Are you on the Goonstation discord? SacredSpirit123 (talk) 05:35, 5 April 2018 (GMT)

Thanks for everything you do for the wiki, here's a barnstar! You're amazing! --Fosstar (talk) 02:12, 7 June 2018 (GMT)

Thank you for singlehandedly teaching everyone how to do everything, like a mentor but powerful John Warcrimes (talk) 16:32, 24 July 2018 (GMT)

Hey, how'd you go about getting images for some of the drinks? --InternetDweller (talk) 05:35, 31 January 2019 (GMT)

I do the images on Paint.NET, the process looks like this (enlarged for clarity). Most of the images I made were based on screenshots of glasses of them in my inventory. Since the stripes in the GUI showed up in the screenshots, I also had to take a color picker and recolor so it'd be a more uniform color. Then I'd remove a line of pixels between the top of the glass and the surface of the drink. Some of them were taken on an airbridge, in the arrivals shuttle, or just a regular table with bright lighting; for these, I just had to remove the line.

Thanks for the help! But now I have another problem. Please refer to this (wiki.ss13.co/File:Margarita.png) to see what's screwed up. --InternetDweller (talk) 01:20, 2 February 2019 (GMT)

I'm glad to say it's not your fault, but the server's. I'm not sure what's happening server-side, but from a few MediaWiki forum posts about similar issues, the code that handles new versions of images hasn't ran yet. You can see this for yourself; notice how the image looks all weird and stretched on the page, but when you actually download it, it's the previous margarita image. In my experience, you just need to wait a few days. You can also readjust the size a bit with NUMBERpx tags on the images, like [[Image.png|16px]].

dear friend studenterhue i want to tell you that i am aware you are a wiki robot disguised as a human, and that i am glad you have decided to use your powers for the good of the spaceman fart game community. with love, your friend, pope crunch Popecrunch (talk) 19:47, 3 May 2019 (GMT)

Hello, similar question to Internet Dweller, how do you do the various job portraits? Might help out with all the new job portraits that need to be done for the new resprited humans (and others) --Onetoughcreampuff (talk) 00:32, 27 April 2021 (GMT)

There are a couple of different ways, but one approach that works for a lot of people is to go on a local server (Hosting a server and Goonstation Development Guide both explain how), make a character, and use the Create Poster admin command, to, well make a wanted poster. Then you edit out the background so it's transparent through something like Paint.NET or similar (because these often go on the Jobs page and such so they won't always be on a white background) and upload the file to the wiki via the Upload File tool on the left. The nice thing is that the wanted poster already shows the person in crisp-clear 64x64 resolution, so no one has to worry about getting the dimensions wrong or taking a picture in too little or too much light.
That's sort of the basic overview; if you were on the Discord, someone could probably explain it to you in greater detail and be there to guide you through any issues you might have too. -- Studenterhue (talk) 08:18, 29 April 2021 (GMT)
