Okay I think that an image for Constellations (and the related Useful Notes Page) is necessary. So any ideas?

This from GIS would be my first idea.

[up] Nice choice. any other suggestions. (BTW I made a wallpaper with the stars of the Big dipper, so that might be included)

[up][up] That's not bad, but I'd prefer something where the illustrations don't overwhelm the stars.

[up] Well I made this wallpaper a while ago. But technically the depicted stars form an Asterism (Though I think that page needed an image as well)

I prefer a round star map of the Earth sky (northern hemisphere).

Now that I am sure it works at wiki size, I give that a [tup] too.

The star map is very nice. [tup]

Very impressive. [tup]

So Should we put the star map on the UN page or the main page (or both?) and shrink my suggestion to wiki size for the Asterisms page?

[up] There's no page for Asterisms other than a troper's page...?

[up] That's strange. Could have sworn there was a useful notes page for Asterisms.

Okay, So should we put Rodney's picture on the trope page or the notes page (or both pages)? and what's the code for this image?

The star map works well enough for Main.Constellations. For UsefulNotes.Constellations, I wouldn't mind having an image for each entry in their respective folders, sorta like on character pages.

Okay then, then we will need images of some of the constellation in each group then.

I've tagged the page and fixed the coding for the image link.

You're welcome. smile Not many good options for combining Ursa Major and Minor...how's this?

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think it'd be better to make an Image Links page for them...that way we're not spending a ton of time wrangling about a dozen or more individual pics for one page.

Or maybe we can put up a crowner and put all the losers in Image Links.
