Talk:Paint

I think we should distribute the paint requirements to the individual ships and buildings. The alternatives are (1) keep them here or (2) keep them in both places. I'm very much against (2). Opinions? --Barrister 04:53, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * I vote for keeping the specific paint amounts for things on their individual pages. If someone is really dying for the overall entire pile, there can be an external link to your post on the Y!PP forum.  --Guppymomma 05:04, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, see I both agree and disagree. Duplicate information smells awful, guaranteed to get out of sync. But I love easy comparison of like information. Wiki doesn't support database lookup does it? How much would that rock!? Wikiextension? --Callistan 10:26, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Well, I moved all the paint info out of here. Everything now uses the paint templates (0 through 4) on the appropriate pages. --Barrister 11:28, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Is there any way to add anchors or link down to the specific recipes? My thought is that linking from each herb to the specific paint it produces may be the way to go. If that is successful, I'd like to do the same for regular cloth, fine cloth, dyes, and enamels.--Fiddler 13:15, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Finished linking all herbs and minerals used in paint directly to recipe on page. Shall we continue and do enamel and cloth this way as well?  Possibly add in images for each at a later time.
 * Great work, Fiddler. I like the way the paint page is done.  I'm not sure if adding an image is necessary for each one; they wouldn't add much more than the generic image at the top.--Yaten 16:02, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Paint has a 1 doubloon cost and black paint has an additional cost to it. Not sure how you want to present that. --Shagie 20:43, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Exceptions to the 1 doubloon cost. --Barrister 21:34, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Tan paint: 0
 * Black paint: ?
 * Purple paint: 2
 * Gold paint: ?
