If you love something, tweak it and twist it. Keep bending it until it breaks. Rip it apart, remix it, rebuild it. Kill your darlings and stitch them together again.

Yeah alterecco, it would be great if you could make a page on how to make a great dockscreen ;)

Ouch, yeah... i have been wanting to do that for a long time. The problem is that dockscreens are quite advanced, so there are several topics that need to be covered. Parrticularly, it is hard to write a new screen with no knowledge of scripting.

Believe me, it is one of the things i would love to write! XD

This doesn't have anything to do with Operation 'Make a Bathtub of fake tequilla', I hope.....

Last time I talked about the wiki, I think i talked about usability.....take the Dwarf Fortress wiki as an example of a really GOOD wiki, and any other good ones we know of, and see what we can learn from them. About wiki-ing, not Dwarf Fortress.
