Image tag
You can use the same image tag for both the flat and rendered images of the eggs. The and  templates are for the pages that they appear on only. -- Cedarwings (talk) 22:00, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Okies! Thanks for your help and patience with the noob here! My experience in this sort of stuff comes from tinkering, but I'm good with instructions! Consider me the Easter Egg janitor... I just putter along in the hall, tidying up when told what needs to be done :)

Uploading images
One thing that I find helpful with uploading of files to ensure that they are correctly named (not that I have found a mistake) is to create the entry on the Flat entries page and the Rendered entries page first as it will give you red links to the files that need to be uploaded. Personally I find it faster and safer with filenames. -- Cedarwings (talk) 06:23, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

So I've noticed, with the couple (dozen) names that I did screw up - when the mysterious red link would appear! Good idea! I hadn't thought about working the other direction! I'm getting the swing of it - you're right, you develop a rhythm! I shouldn't do this at 1:30 am though! Knowing now what it takes, I also have a good idea as to how far behind I don't want to get.

Image size
I'm not sure what happened but it looks like the rendered images of Nordenx's eggs were the wrong size. The original upload was 50x50 but from everything I have seen, and uploaded myself, 35x42 is the correct image size. Belthazar has resized the 4 Nordenx eggs, unfortunately to the incorrect size of less then 35x42. Any idea what happened and I want to make sure that this doesn't happen with others. -- Cedarwings (talk) 07:32, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

I think the eggs may be "off" because they were eggs that were rendered last year. He may have downloaded and saved his eggs at some other size, in some other way since then, and when he resubmitted them, linked to his personal saved files... I don't know. I will ask Fizz to rerender his eggs when she gets a chance.

Just a note
Ahoy! I'd just like to point out that the rendered eggs for Rhodin are missing, I've uploaded the flat eggs yesterday and since my free trial of Max has expired I do not have the ability to render his eggs. Could you please render the designs and upload them! Thanks! --Addihockey (talk/contribs) 15:50, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

I will poke someone/anyone in the test rendering thread... Thanks!

Sandbox
I moved Dexla/Sandbox to your user space at User:Dexla/Sandbox, just in case you wonder where it went. --Alfwyn 19:37, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Small doggies
Awww, Dex. It wasn't an accident that the dog and the small dog were both using the same my pet sub-templates... --Belthazar451 11:40, 17 February 2014 (PST)
