Being colorblind, it's hard for me to see that Shinatama is "all pink" on the main page, but she doesn't look nearly as good as on the image page: [[Image: | Being colorblind, it's hard for me to see that Shinatama is "all pink" on the main page, but she doesn't look nearly as good as on the image page: [[Image:Rina - Chibi Shinatama Final.png]].<br> Even aside from the color thing, she might need to be sized down in a proper graphics app like Photoshop rather than leaving the scaling to the wiki. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 21:38, 25 February 2008 (CET) | ||

:P.S: ... and what about replacing "serendipity" with "cherry picking"? I think it would be more intuitive.

::Well, the meaning of "[[wikipedia:Cherry_picking|cherry picking]]" was ''really'' not intuitive to ''me'', so I had to look it up.

:::It's true that I don't think "cherry picking" is the right phrase to replace "serendipity", but the more important question is what "serendipity" is supposed to mean in the first place. You should be aware that, as fond as you are of "serendipity", geyser, I can confidently say that a lot of native English speakers do not know its meaning, and those who do, like myself, are still at a loss as to what it means when used <u>here</u>. When I first saw that the word was a link, I assumed it would link to [[Special:Random]], not a dictionary definition of the word that still gives it no context.... | :::It's true that I don't think "cherry picking" is the right phrase to replace "serendipity", but the more important question is what "serendipity" is supposed to mean in the first place.
