 :: I don't think many use them today, through. But I find it very helpful in understanding basic of Robocode movement (and to check if you get your wave flattener right). I used to use StatistRobot, but I now I normally use [[FloodGrapher]]. Personally, I found it much more powerful than the SmogPainter. --[[User:Nat|<span style="color:#099;">Nat</span>]] [[User talk:Nat|<span style="color:#0a5;">Pavasant</span>]] 15:56, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

 : Yep, good ideas. Like [[Robocode/Graphical Debugging]]. What about graphers? What do people use these days? All I've ever used is [[StatistRobot]], and that was a long time ago.

 : Graphers? I still think it is quite important to understand how flat movement works, and how would wave surfer "optimized that on-the-fly" (quote ABC). I also think Graphical Debugging should goes somewhere in this page too, probably under Tools section (as it was once RobocodeGL/SG). --[[User:Nat|<span style="color:#099;">Nat</span>]] [[User talk:Nat|<span style="color:#0a5;">Pavasant</span>]] 13:38, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

 I tried a darker version of the color Rednaxela used, but I don't think it really matches the rest of the colors. I'm up for changing any of the colors, but I think we'd want to change link/vlink colors to match. I thought the Tools section would have more stuff, but I couldn't think of anything else that important. I'm not sure about "Influential Robocoders" since it feels kind of vain. =) And maybe off-putting to new people. I think the RumbleStats/TeX/article writing stuff should be its own page linked from here. Funny how many red links there are for stuff I think should be linked from the front page - I should get to work on those pages. Seems like room for another section under Tools - ideas? --[[User:Voidious|Voidious]] 19:28, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

	I think RoboRumble section should go above Challenges. And maybe the What is Robocode and Getting Started section should be combined together. One section I want to propose is the Robot section, where there is influential robots and/or important robots. (I'd say such as DrussGT as our current king, SpareParts as an example of multiple-parts robot, etc.) This should grab some beginner's attention more than discussion and theory page.

 I disliked the greenish a bit, but I dislike the contrast being too high for the main title area, particularly with bold text. Also I found the big black bordered too contrasting. Perhaps the change here looks nicer on the eyes? [[User:Rednaxela/Main Page]]. Also, agreed that the reorganization and content are bigger concerns :) --[[User:Rednaxela|Rednaxela]] 03:29, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
-I like it, but I'd almost make the header background a bit darker if we're going to change it. (And I do agree with changing it now...) I personally like the white on black for the rest of the page. And the grey instead of black borders is nice, it's a bit less in-your-face. I don't have much attachment to the blueish vs greenish in the other headers - we had both in use (which I hadn't noticed) and I just picked one.
