| + | Do you mind if I change the blank pages (Red links), so that they link to the specific page on your blog? (Asking before I do anything. [[User:All Nighter94|All Night]] ([[User talk:All Nighter94|talk]]) 08:38, 22 August 2014 (CDT) |
||
| + | No, for now not - I haven't decided how to deal with that aspect yet, considering I want to distance myself from BT. However, as far as editing goes I can make you an account on the blog so that you can do your edits, considering your edits were always very helpful~. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 09:22, 22 August 2014 (CDT) |

| − | May I know what font did you use for Haganai volume 1 colored illustration? |
||
| − | Alsso, is there any way to sharpen a resized LQ picture? If not, that what method do you use for replacing the jap text to english ones? |
||
| + | You can distance yourself from Baka-Tsuki, and still get traffic using the "Hosted Project" thing they've been doing, as of late. I will admit the "blog" route does offer more control :D.[[User:All Nighter94|All Night]] ([[User talk:All Nighter94|talk]]) 10:05, 22 August 2014 (CDT) |
||
| − | I just saw the image you posted in Code-Zero's talk page, and by curiosity, I wanted to know which tools did you use in Photoshop. Is it with the Level function, or the Contrast one? Or did you use more than that? [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 18:44, 31 December 2011 (CST) |
||
| + | Traffic isn't my goal. I have '''no ads''' and '''no donation buttons''', so I couldn't care less about traffic. I provide accurate translations for readers. That is all. The reasons for distancing myself from BT are purely ideological - you should read the first post on the blog's homepage for more details. It's time for some people at BT to wake up. And if me distancing myself helps, then that's good. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 10:12, 22 August 2014 (CDT) |
||
| − | Well, basicly, first thing is leveling, to level down blacks the way they are supposed to, also i applied a pre-made script (i use it when editing manga) to dedust blacks and whites in the image. That is what i used in that case. If there's a need i have more tools, scripts, or manual ways to edit images. ;) --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 19:42, 31 December 2011 (CST) |

||
| + | Just outta curiosity, but even if you wanted to keep your translations off the site, couldn't you have kept the pages and put links for the chapters that are on your site? Cause Baka Tsuki is a good way to find a lot of series as well as a nice way to check for updates.... even if you removed your translations, other people could start posting on it... It's also done with other groups as well, they just link to their page..... plz don't misunderstand, I'm really just curious about why the pages disappeared all of the sudden--[[User:Deathmailrock|Deathmailrock]] 02:31, 24 August 2014 (CDT) |

| − | Actually, Kira if you need help with any of your projects, whether it's editorial (text) or photoshop assistance. Just drop me a msg here ;). --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 08:06, 1 January 2012 (CST) |
||
| + | Was wondering the same thing, I think BT isa a great site to spread translations even though the actual translations aren't on the site itself but links to others instead, quite confusing sometimes, but nonetheless thanks a lot!!!.[[User:ZAIZEAH|ZAIZEAH]] ([[User talk:ZAIZEAH|talk]]) |
||
| − | I'm thinking about it right now. It's a pretty great idea, Krytyk. XD [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 09:33, 1 January 2012 (CST) |

|
| + | Well, you could have at least have kept the page and let people know you were dropping the project... then someone else could try to start the project if they felt like it, and if not, then people could still learn about the existence of the series. It's kind of a waste to get rid of the series pages, even if you aren't going to leave your own work on it.--[[User:Deathmailrock|Deathmailrock]] 05:01, 28 August 2014 (CDT) |

| − | I don't use the smart leveling, i think you mean the three eyedroppers tool on the right side of leveling menu. I do it manually on the diagram, so the question doesn't apply to me :p. Imho you overleveled abit~--[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 12:16, 2 January 2012 (CST) |

| − | + | You're wrong on one point. I'm going to continue TL'ing series. It's just that they won't be on BT. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 13:34, 28 August 2014 (CDT) |
|
| + | I meant that someone else could start it as a baka tsuki project.... just one chapter on the site could be a good preview for new people and they might start searching for the series elsewhere.. it will at least allow people to know of the existence of the series while they search BakaTsuki..--[[User:Deathmailrock|Deathmailrock]] 14:01, 28 August 2014 (CDT) |

|
| + | Well, this is just coming from an anonymous reader, and it probably will not influence your decision, but I'd like to try to encourage you to keep links to the projects on your blog on BT. Though it has no effect on me, since I actually already know where your blog is (and quite like the ease of readability + theme btw), I also know how difficult it is to find series not posted in frequently viewable areas. In my mind, just hosting your translations on a separate site shows you aren't part of the BT community, but instead hold your own set of translation standards. I've got quite an aversion to social media like twitter personally, so my discovery of projects is self-limited to what I browse for. So I figured I would throw a bid in for future readers like myself, so that they could easily find your excellent translations. As a side note, very much looking forward to OSO, and please feel free to delete this off your discussion page when you've read it because of how large it is lol. Thank you for taking the effort to learn another language and for putting the considerable amount of effort and time it takes to translate a novel into use for people you haven't met, cheers mate. |

| − | Hi, Krytyk. I'm a EN/FR translator for Date a Live [FR] and I wanted to ask you if you can upload the PSD format of Date A Live illustrations or send it to me so I can translate the illustrations too. But It would be better if you upload it for the other alternative language project. [[User:Devenk83|Devenk83]] ([[User talk:Devenk83|talk]]) 07:47, 6 June 2013 (CDT) |

| − | I need a small favor from you. Several two page illustrations from Kore wa Zombie desu ka? volumes 6, 8, 9 are broken into two separate files. I need someone who can combine them into one illustration for each volume I listed above. If your interested and are not too busy, then I would greatly appreciate your assistance in this. Also, this is isn't very urgent, so I can wait awhile for this to get done gradually. -[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] 00:24, 3 March 2012 (CST) |

| − | I'm suprised supervisors allowed such erroneus code to even appear, i'm sure there was a draft rules on how to format the project pages, it's not a private space for people to test out their inventions -.-, if you can't find it, request zzhk or any other supervisor to look through it. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 17:48, 23 November 2013 (CST) |

| − | |||
| − | Thank you for your constructive and understanding reply. Various people have already seen this and other pages with the code and either approved or at least didn't object it. It was even considered a possible solution for different problems on another big project on the site. But of course I'll gladly nag more supervisors to satisfy you. With this said, why don't you tell me what on my so-called "private space" is "erroneus" about my "invention"? It might help to improve the "erroneus code". Again, thank you for your understanding. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 06:59, 24 November 2013 (CST) |

| − | |||
| − | Well my reply wasn't the most curtous one, reason being yours, was just rude. Something that works for you and your browser, and it looks good on your browser resolution, settings, addons, isn't neccessarily something that's the best solution for everyone. Most of the people just see mess instead, me being an example, having the image nearly overlap with the chapter titles, being the cause of my reaction and editing it. Baka-Tsuki is a portal allowing you to post your translations, a free space, and also free assistance when it comes to editing your translations, to make sure it's top quality, by dedicated or patrolling editors. But it also has some rules to make sure readability is at it's best, and it's neat-and-clean. Best way to ensure everything is as it should be, is to study how supervisors of the major projects did format their pages, examples being zzhk, KuroiHikari, Code-Zero, and their project pages, like HsDxD, Campione or ToAru. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 10:48, 24 November 2013 (CST) |
||
| − | |||
| − | The image being next to the chapter titles is intentional, a better example of the pros of the code can be seen on Oda Nobuna (DE). It scales with lower resolutions, so there is no problem with that. Browser-wise there isn't any problem, either. The code is completely based on wikimedia code. If it doesn't work on a computer, wikimedia itself doesn't. The code being "messy" from your point of view is possible, it's still neat when executed, though. It can be explained what and how it does, what it does. As the sites are either being supervised or "managed" with supervisor approval by me, makes it unproblematic to edit. Major edits, anyway, should be approved by the supervisors in prior, which is in this case either inaban or me. Furthermore the code itself does not "revolutionize", but "evolutionize" the view system, not displaying any hard break with the usual "freaking ugly wide-screen view" code (quote from forum) of the original version. There is no reason to change the code except for the supervisor being against it or willful. Another matter is that I went through the forums and didn't find a guideline on how pages ''have'' to look. So I assume basically they have to be mostly similar in looking, but not exactly the same (as example Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei running without any volume covers). Your problem being the cover image being too close to the chapter titles can be edited, by the way. The distance between the chapter titles and the image is flexible. I just deemed it good-looking this way (so did inaban). I just moved it aside by 100 px to show my point. However, I don't see any reason to have the picture on the other side of the screen, when it's related to the volume. If you don't bother looking at Oda Nobuna (DE): The code manages to show two volumes next to each other (could be any number, but it complicates the code further) and scales with resolution, meaning it breaks the two volumes, which are next to each other, up and puts some under each other.

||
| − | |||
| − | Well whatever, i lost interest, i stated what i wanted, but this issue is not worth such exaggerating discussion, as it's a minor one. I'll look forward to see if the formatting will fix itself if more volumes will be added to the contents. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 14:48, 24 November 2013 (CST) |

Do you mind if I change the blank pages (Red links), so that they link to the specific page on your blog? (Asking before I do anything. All Night (talk) 08:38, 22 August 2014 (CDT)
No, for now not - I haven't decided how to deal with that aspect yet, considering I want to distance myself from BT. However, as far as editing goes I can make you an account on the blog so that you can do your edits, considering your edits were always very helpful~. --Krytyk (talk) 09:22, 22 August 2014 (CDT)
You can distance yourself from Baka-Tsuki, and still get traffic using the "Hosted Project" thing they've been doing, as of late. I will admit the "blog" route does offer more control :D.All Night (talk) 10:05, 22 August 2014 (CDT)
Traffic isn't my goal. I have no ads and no donation buttons, so I couldn't care less about traffic. I provide accurate translations for readers. That is all. The reasons for distancing myself from BT are purely ideological - you should read the first post on the blog's homepage for more details. It's time for some people at BT to wake up. And if me distancing myself helps, then that's good. --Krytyk (talk) 10:12, 22 August 2014 (CDT)
I meant more "Reader base" when I said traffic :P All Night (talk) 10:43, 22 August 2014 (CDT)
Do tell me if you make that blog account for me :P Sense online looks interesting.All Night (talk) 14:22, 23 August 2014 (CDT)
Why Delete the Pages?[edit]
Just outta curiosity, but even if you wanted to keep your translations off the site, couldn't you have kept the pages and put links for the chapters that are on your site? Cause Baka Tsuki is a good way to find a lot of series as well as a nice way to check for updates.... even if you removed your translations, other people could start posting on it... It's also done with other groups as well, they just link to their page..... plz don't misunderstand, I'm really just curious about why the pages disappeared all of the sudden--Deathmailrock 02:31, 24 August 2014 (CDT)
Was wondering the same thing, I think BT isa a great site to spread translations even though the actual translations aren't on the site itself but links to others instead, quite confusing sometimes, but nonetheless thanks a lot!!!.ZAIZEAH (talk)
That wouldn't be distancing myself if I did so. I want to move away and spend the rest of my days growing my grey beard in leisure~ --Krytyk (talk) 04:24, 24 August 2014 (CDT)
Well, you could have at least have kept the page and let people know you were dropping the project... then someone else could try to start the project if they felt like it, and if not, then people could still learn about the existence of the series. It's kind of a waste to get rid of the series pages, even if you aren't going to leave your own work on it.--Deathmailrock 05:01, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
You're wrong on one point. I'm going to continue TL'ing series. It's just that they won't be on BT. --Krytyk (talk) 13:34, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
I meant that someone else could start it as a baka tsuki project.... just one chapter on the site could be a good preview for new people and they might start searching for the series elsewhere.. it will at least allow people to know of the existence of the series while they search BakaTsuki..--Deathmailrock 14:01, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
You missed one of my edits because of this damn caching thing. I wrote that supervisor told me to take it down if it's not on BT or hosted. I did leave the message and link to my blog before that though. --Krytyk (talk) 14:24, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
I told him to delete the page. --KuroiHikari (Talk | ) 17:42, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
Thanks Kuroi, that helps. At least I have an excuse to use :P. (although that was a good thing considering the point I want to distance myself as much as possible from BT). --Krytyk (talk) 19:21, 28 August 2014 (CDT)
Well, this is just coming from an anonymous reader, and it probably will not influence your decision, but I'd like to try to encourage you to keep links to the projects on your blog on BT. Though it has no effect on me, since I actually already know where your blog is (and quite like the ease of readability + theme btw), I also know how difficult it is to find series not posted in frequently viewable areas. In my mind, just hosting your translations on a separate site shows you aren't part of the BT community, but instead hold your own set of translation standards. I've got quite an aversion to social media like twitter personally, so my discovery of projects is self-limited to what I browse for. So I figured I would throw a bid in for future readers like myself, so that they could easily find your excellent translations. As a side note, very much looking forward to OSO, and please feel free to delete this off your discussion page when you've read it because of how large it is lol. Thank you for taking the effort to learn another language and for putting the considerable amount of effort and time it takes to translate a novel into use for people you haven't met, cheers mate.
