I'd like some feedback on the loot article so far. Specifically, the armor section. What do you think of the little 'info card' look I made? Should we keep the armor section like this, or redesign it in a way so that all the info is contained in a table (or several, shields/armor/etc could all be separate as they are now) and the small pictures could be below the table(s) or not included at all? I've made an example in the [[Sandbox]] with shields in both formats. | I'd like some feedback on the loot article so far. Specifically, the armor section.

I've made an example in the Sandbox with shields in both formats.
Also, do you think it looks better now with all the tables aligned left instead of centered?

The first one was from a thread post by Srand on turbine's forums that is no longer available (don't you hate how forums trash old threads after a while). The second one is probably still there, when they redid the site a few weeks ago they did it in a way that broke all old links (very frustrating), though a lot of the content is still there, just has a different index (if you strip all the cruft). I may or may do a new index, the old one took a long time to do and I just wish I had archived the information locally, which I had plans to but they made no announcements just turned off the old site abrubtly. --Tlosk 19:04, 8 September 2008 (CDT)
I would like to get screenshots of the missing armor types up as well, but I lack the matching sets. If anyone is interested in putting up some pictures, all images are named <Type> Armor Small.jpg. They are 100x150px. They were taken inside any meeting hall, standing flat against the stone wall to the right of the upper throne (right if you are sitting in it) zoomed out slightly with the side window open. Then I simply used photoshop to scale the picture down by percentages until the picture of the armor fit within the 100x150 small picture.
I would like to have the Amuli/Celdon/Koujia all be greater shadow armor, preferably the 30+ version of the armor, because the silver/brown colored armor is very neutral. Unfortunately, I do not own any shadow armor, and do not want to spend the time/scints to gather armor I'll use for just 1 picture. As for the Lorica/Nariyid, any shot of matching armor would be great.
Information regarding the loot system, although dated, can be found on ACVault:
I believe these two articles are direct copy+pastes from a turbine article, but I have not yet located the offical source.
