A lot of the pictures you're adding are fairly decent, but can you find them or save them with a higher resolution? If I had to mark anything bad about them, it's that. Notice how when you click any other, they fill up to about half the screen? All of yours look good small, but are only small. Try to use ones with high resolution if you can. Thanks though.

Where are you getting those pictures of Elma and Jack Crowley? They're nice, but they look like they might be fanart and if that's the case, they'll have to be replaced. CorbeauKarasu 05:57, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hey, have you come across any Sheska pictures as of late? She's really in need of a better profile picture. Tommy-Vercetti 17:21, May 31, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not so sure how I feel about the Hughes picture. Some of his features seem a little off. But regarding the images of Breda, Falman and Fuery, could you crop them a bit so as to bring the subjects closer and reduce spacing around the edges? CorbeauKarasu 17:23, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

Man, I love your Havoc, Falman, Breda, and Fuery pics. I do think the Hughes one works too, though I would be fine with either that or the old one. Tommy-Vercetti 17:47, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, kudos for all the awesome pictures you've put up, they've helped us out a lot. Fullmetal Fan 22:46, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

DVD Jackets
I agree having the whole jackets on the DVD volume pages in a good idea, but I think we can go a step further. With the small size of the pages, it doesn't really make sense to have another picture in addition to the infobox, so I'm thinking we could stick the whole jacket up there rather than just the front. Of course the problem with that is that the whole jacket images that are up now don't have a title, so we'd need to fit that in somehow. Unfortunately I'm no good at image editing, but if you could find a way to do that I think it would look really good. Fullmetal Fan 02:06, April 7, 2013 (UTC)

Darius' Image
Hey, can you maybe explain why you keep getting rid of that image. It fits okay, it isn't inappropriate because it actually happened, it isn't in a cluttered area, and it doesn't disobey any of wikia's guidelines. I've already talked with somebody else about this. Explain why you're getting rid of that image before you delete it.

I'm in favor of removing it as well, and it's not because it's inappropriate, but just because it's merely a joke in 4-Koma theater and not really canon. That's fine as a mention, but, only pertinent information should require an image, especially on a tiny page like Darius'. Also, sign your posts from now on, like this -> Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 20:42, June 7, 2013 (UTC)

First of all, Darius isn't gay (I don't think that's canon) and like Vercetti said, that's just a joke from 4-koma theater. If someone want that kind of information to be stated in wikia I think it should be only in "trivia". JPPcouto (talk) 12:23, June 8, 2013 (GMT+0)

I agree with Vercetti. I'm pretty embarrassed how I actually forgot to leave a signiture. That's not me at all, but Jppcouto's defense was pretty weak. "First of all, Darius isn't gay..." that was really bad. This is a wikia, and you shouldn't remove an image just because it contains information that you don't like. You have no proof that he's strait, while the image makes it more likely for him to be gay, whether it is or isn't canon. ☆ Chidori   There's a TV in my head 17:37, June 12, 2013 (UTC)

FMA sequel
GO here!

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fullmetal-Alchemist-Brotherhood-SequelSpin-off/157559874424516?ref=hl


 * ^Stupidest thing ever conceived. I cannot stand pointless sequels. As proud as I would be to say I'm against this idiotic notion, the fact is, english fans complaining and hoping about it on Facebook will not do anything, at all. So, it's a dumb idea, and it's never going to happen; nor SHOULD it. Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 18:29, July 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Vercetti, It wasn't me who put that here, it was Cloudstrifecomplete. But I agree with him in FMA having a sequel, however if it's pointless it's better that don't even exist. What I really wanted was a realistic CG adaptation of the manga series such as "Final Fantasy VII Advent Children" (Squarenix, the same publisher of FMA). That for sure would be the best thing ever. JPPCouto (talk) 19:51, July 15, 2013 (GMT+0)


 * Hey thanks for not minding. Sorri if it came as a surprise. I started that page for entertainment not that long ago and when we got so many likes so fast I decided to try and help it grow even faster. Anyway Hope you can like and share the page as well. Thank you very much for being understanding and agreeing. And yes seeing CG like Advent Children would be GREAT! ~The Hero~ 04:42, July 19, 2013 (UTC) CloudStrifeComplete




 * Note: The CG image was made by CharlieRomeo


 * I'm sorry, but that just looks utterly, utterly stupid to me. Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 22:03, July 19, 2013 (UTC)


 * So for u, the series FMA shouldn't have nothing more after TV series from 2009/2010?
 * JPPCouto (talk) 12:49, September 8 (GMT+0).


 * Uh... yes.


 * Are you of the mentality that if I just say "FMA is done, move on" that means I'm abandoning the franchise or don't like it anymore? Something like that?
 * Why is it so difficult for people to just move on? It's a great manga, 2nd anime series, we had fun, we can revisit anytime we want, why is that not okay?
 * This is why pointless sequels exist. THEY NEED MORE, all the time, and are never content with what they DO have. Yes, stop milking it (the 2nd movie should be proof enough), no live action, no sequel, nothing. It ended, it was great. It's still there whenever we want to revist.


 * Or then, I guess we'll get FMA GT, WHERE ED BECOMES SUPER SAIYAN 8. Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 17:52, September 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Vercetti, When I say that I want more FMA, I'm not just talking about a sequel... It can be a remake in CG (maybe when the turns 20th old in 2021), where u can see the series more realistic with better visuals. I mean, I want for the future that the series could get a version even better than 2009 series, because we all know that if the fma manga got a adaptation now...it will much better. And u ask me, why? Because, the animation is evolving constantly and we are in 2013 where the animes get better visuals than 2009 animes. And i think for me...damm, I would like to see my favorites series with the visuals that the current animes have. In that way of thinking, I think there isn't anything wrong with wishing for a CG adaptation.
 * JPPCouto (talk) 13:47, September 9 (GMT+0).


 * Jesus Christ... wow, you are just about everything wrong with fans these days.


 * Have you ever seen Japanese CG? It's terrible. Go watch the new Berserk films and see if that's "better" than hand-drawn.
 * And now you just want a REMAKE so it can look "better"? My god, I have nothing more to say to you, and thankfully, I don't have to. Since, it's never going to happen, despite your wishful thinking, period. Get over it.Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 14:15, September 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * Although I'm with the opinion thar FMA is over and shouldn't get a sequel, Tommy, I have to agree with JPPCouto that fans are entitled to have their personal wishes in regards to the series, whether that would be a "sequel", a "spin off", a "live action movie" or a remake. I, for instance, think that a remake is the less likely of all the above, since FMA: Brotherhood was already a remake and it's less than 5 years old and it already covered all the original material, with better graphics than the 2003 anime, so I don't think companies would invest millions of dollars into remaking something they have already done, especially since FMA is a shounen "with a twist" and don't follow the structure, public or logic of shounen "by the book", unlike Saber Marionette, for example, that has it's X, Z, W... versions.
 * Personally, I don't think we have the room to think FMA will go on in any manner other than a "Special" in a couple of years, like a 10th Anniversary Edition with special contents, like a new Gaiden (which would only come about in 2021). That's as far as it might get, considering the personality of both GanGan and SquareEnix and also Arakawa.
 * But, that being said, fans are entitled to have their wishes, whether they might be realistic or not. I understand why so many people, specially younger ones might get too attached and want to keep on dreaming and fantasising about FMA. Hell, fans have completely altered Hetalia due to their fantasies! That might be bad cause it may scare more fans that could get into Hetalia (and FMA for what's matter) out of prejudice due to the immaturity of its fandom. But, as it turns out and with the years of experience that I had with anime and with FMA in particular and all the strings attached, I've come to realise that, not only my "rage" and discontent with other people's views on the series doesn't help at all, the best approach is to just let them be and be coherent to my own personal knowledge of FMA and also my own personal view of it.
 * Here in Brazil, I've become a sort of "reference" when it comes to Arakawa because I've researched about her work for years, to the point of being invited to write articles in magazines about FMA and Arakawa and, sometimes, people come to me asking if there's any chance to get a sequel or asking me to join a particular campaign to help bringing it back and, when they do, I let my opinion be known to them, but, other than that, I don't seek to go to those "facebook pages" or give much credit to people who try to raise such issues because, first I don't agree with it, and second, I don't think it's going to get anywhere. But trying to shove that comprehension down others people's throats has prooven to be the most ineffective of all possible course of actions.
 * But you know me, Tommy, and you know I'm not saying this out of spite or because I have an opinion that defies yours. ^_~


 * Addendum: I've realised that the Facebook page has made a wiki dedicated to a possible sequel on FMA and that it has copied and pasted many of the information that I've gathered myself from the guides and interviews... And I can't decide whether I'm flattered or offended by that. ¬¬' Either way, I'm thinking about telling them to, at least, give credits of those infos to our wikia, since we didn't work so hard on it only to get people copy us and get credits for it. Turdaewen (talk) 14:43, September 9, 2013 (UTC)


 * I didn't tell them TO remove their site; I just gave my opinion of it. And, personally, beg and plea all they want with whatever sites they want; it's not going to happen.


 * I just hate that mentality that so many fans of anything has; something ends and they can't just reflect back on the fact that it was fun and now it's over. Buy it on DVD, buy the books, whatever, and there it is, forever yours to revisit. But no, they have to keep hoping to get that same feeling of bliss over and over. I swear, it's like some people don't even have sentience or something, just like animals: MAKE ME FEEL GOOOOOD AGAIN LIKE WHEN I FIRST SAW IT, OOO-OOO, MONKEY BRAIN NEEDS FEEL GOOD, OOO-OOOO. It's embarrassing. Tommy-Vercetti (talk) 16:25, September 9, 2013 (UTC)

Questions
Hey I have a few questions about how to edit and update the wikia. you mind helping?

I first wanted to know how to add the boxes under the main pic. Like where it says "date of birth" and stuff haha.

Okay, first u need to click "Edit" in the page that u want to edit. After that, u are in "Edit Mode". U say that u wanted to edit the boxes of main pic, so look to these images:

- http://s22.postimg.org/89psoelxd/help.png (IMG1); http://s22.postimg.org/yluqu1bi9/help_1.png (IMG2)

Easy, no? Dude, be coherent in your editings, never change something only 'cause u want. Your updates must be truthful and related to FMA series. And one more thing, don't forget to put your name and date in your "User Talk". JPPCouto 12:44, September 8, 2013 (GMT+0)
