Template talk:Button

How come the R button on the Nintendo 64 controller has an image, but the L button does not?

Oh, and why are the X and Y buttons on the Gamecube controller different sizes?

Because I didn't find the L button anywhere (it should be game rip). All buttons have the same height (16 pixels), that's why it looks so weird. SWFlash

♥ I love your template! ♥

it works so well! I use it for the microgames mostly. I'd give it...[drumroll]

SNES Buttons

The , , and pictures look a little strange. I know they're ripped from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, but I think we should use something else, like the default ones with Japan colors. If anyone agrees with me, I can upload them. SKmaric (talk)

I think they have to be a game rip, but I don't know. PikaSamus (talk)

A lot of them do look like game rips, but the NES, Gameboy and Gameboy Color clearly aren't. The other game rips don't appear to look as odd as these 4, so it wouldn't be a problem to upload new versions of them. SKmaric (talk)

Do it then. PikaSamus (talk)

Wait a minute

Why did you remove all the system categories? I think they looked quite nice rather than the same generic button button. It also makes it easier to tell what system a game is on in an article.--UM3000

Yeah i'm a little confused with the giant change Raven Effect (talk)

I didn't like how the buttons looked like on article pages, they were very distracting from the text. SWFlash

Why did you remove so many of them Raven Effect (talk)

You didn't like how the buttons looked like on article pages. See, that's the problem. You're disregarding what other peoples' opinions are and thinking about your own.--UM3000

Shouldn't you have made a talk page proposal or asked an admin Raven Effect (talk)

All I have changed is the appearance of the buttons, nothing more, nothing less. This doesn't need a proposal. Conanshinichi didn't make a proposal when changing some buttons, I didn't do it as well. If you need to specify the system, do so in the article. SWFlash

Actually i talked to an admin and it does require a proposal to make that drastic of a change Raven Effect (talk)

Completely changing the entire layout of the buttons like this would require some sort of talk page consensus since it changes almost everything about the way the template works, as far as I can tell. Bop1996 _(Talk)

No it doesn't. This isn't even a big change: it's just how the buttons look like. It was never a problem before, why is it a problem right now? SWFlash

Because you completly overhauled the look of the template and removed a large number of buttons with out anybody elses opinions Raven Effect (talk)

Removed a large amount of buttons? I haven't removed even a single one. Can you provide examples? SWFlash

From you edit summery "reworking the template, got rid of the most buttons, it will take forever to fix the buttons on 1000+ articles" Raven Effect (talk)

By "buttons" I mean, uh, forget, that was a typo. SWFlash

Also you removed a large amount of console specific buttons and i disagree with doing that i think it looks better if you use the console buttons rather than a generic button Raven Effect (talk)

See UM's post above. Your argument is invalid. SWFlash

Uh, my post was directed at you... "I didn't like how the buttons looked like on article pages, they were very distracting from the text." This is what proposals are for, Watson. To resolve an argument by seeing which side gets the most opinions. But no, instead, you just think about what you want, rather than thinking about the opinions of others and reaching an agreement.--UM3000

Basically, to sum my above post up, you're pretty much like this: "Screw the opinions of others, I'll do what I want.".--UM3000

What exactly you don't like in this change? SWFlash

"I think they looked quite nice rather than the same generic button. It also makes it easier to tell what system a game is on in an article."--UM3000

• "I think they looked quite nice rather than the same generic button."

"they (buttons) were very distracting from the text." That's the whole point of the change.

• "It also makes it easier to tell what system a game is on in an article."

"If you need to specify the system, do so in the article." SWFlash

Notice the bolded I? "But no, instead, you just think about what you want, rather than thinking about the opinions of others and reaching an agreement."
