Forum:Interfaces via Legacy

Forums: Yew Grove > Interfaces via Legacy

The Legacy mode BETA was released today, and with it, the "old school" style interface. Although it'll be a while before this goes Live, (if it even does); But when it does, I think we should keep the consistency of the RS3 interfaces.

As you can see from the pictures I've posted below, a lot of the essential interfaces have become brown, to match the Legacy's interface: http://i.imgur.com/0O0QiKv.png http://i.imgur.com/O6LvtfL.png

What I'm proposing is basically a policy or a guideline thingy that says to keep using RS3 interfaces, to A) Keep consistent, B) Avoid confusion and C) Keep up to date. --Scuzzy Beta 17:17, June 16, 2014 (UTC)

Use RS3 interfaces - How dumb. This is going to become a nightmare. User:Urbancowgurl777/Signature 17:34, June 16, 2014 (UTC)

But then legacy nubs will complain about their preferred interface design not being here.

Use RS3 interfaces - ^ Even though I said that, use RS3 interfaces cuz its more "modern" imo. User:ChaoticShadow/SigReal

Use RS3 interfaces It's the default and the modern interface. If we allow legacy interfaces then we'd have to allow legacy lifepoints and stuff too. We should really just pretend legacy doesn't exist outside of its own article. Wahisietel (Talk) 16:56, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Prefer RS3, don't disallow Legacy - NIS is the main interface system while Legacy is secondary, so we should use RS3 as a standard. However, we should allow Legacy interfaces and not mark them as obsolete or anything, but mention that there is a preference for RS3 in order to maintain consistency. We could create a template saying that the image uses Legacy interfaces where RS3 is preferred. But in general, don't replace Legacy with RS3 just because RS3. Fswe1 17:12, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Or we could just use Retake image... User:Urbancowgurl777/Signature 17:30, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Meh, only consistency hardly warrants that. Obviously, when choosing between a Legacy image that is of higher quality than an RS3 image of the same subject, the former should be picked. Fswe1 19:13, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Use RS3 interfaces - I prefer if we stick to the current RS3 interfaces for the majority of our images to keep with consistency. TonyBest100 17:40, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Quality over consistency - Per Fswe, if we have a higher quality Legacy image than RS3 for whatever reason, keep that. In all cases I can think of, however, this just means use the Legacy version of the image (if it already exists that is) until someone gets a RS3 one. bad_fetus^talk 18:43, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
