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. SWFlashPersonal file

I love your template!

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

SNES Buttons

The A Button, B Button, X Button and Y Button 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 default button. It also makes it easier to tell what system a game is on in an article.--UM3000 E-102 Gamma.png

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. SWFlashPersonal file

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 E-102 Gamma.png

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. SWFlashPersonal file

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? SWFlashPersonal file

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