Internet Explorer Problems[change source]

As most of the world uses IE, shouldn't the problem with transparencies be fixed, as with IE, the strips turn grey as IE doesn't support 8-bit transparency. Maybe there should be a concerted effort to make the standard template strips accessible to the largest number of people? --Bob 17:04, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe this problem has been solved in IE7. I also found the following website that describes a Javascript fix for IE 5.5-6: [1], which sounds interesting, and something that conceivably could be integrated into wikimedia (?!), but definitely outside the scope of discussion about this template. Are there particularly problematic elements (e.g., shirts which are widely used and whose transparencies do not work)? If it does not hurt the intended appearance of the strip, I think it would be acceptable to modify the file(s) so that it/they work for the greatest number of users.

Added basketball kit[change source]

I added a {{basketball kit}} which can use all the body patterns here (no arms, of course). It seems to work on FF2 but have not tried it with other browsers. If you have some familiarity with basketball, some artistic ability, and find the basketball jersey I created (Image:Kit body basketball.png) horrible, please make a better one. The template is in use in a couple of random places. Rolando 04:52, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I made an improvement to the basketball shirt. Also added {{American football uniform}}. Rolando 07:25, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is there an option, in English Wikipedia, to put a picture of body kit, like in Polish Wikipedia? Ex. http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lech_Pozna%C5%84 or http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zawisza_Bydgoszcz_%28pi%C5%82ka_no%C5%BCna%29 ђ

Green quarters[change source]

Please could someone make a green and white quartered shirt for the Billingham Synthonia F.C. page? I don't seem to have appropriate software available to me..... ChrisTheDude 21:52, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fix Kit_body_redquarters14.png[change source]

This image should be transparent in quadrants 2&3, not infilled with white. I've uploaded a corrected file to Wikipedia Commons and requested that they replace the existing file. Wiggy! 13:33, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a problem with the transparency settings. See above for the discussion regarding this. It is not confined to just this image, but to many using this template. --Bob 23:14, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Thanks. That was the only one I was having trouble with and it's been replaced so should be good now (I hope). Wiggy! 03:27, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bemerton Heath Harlequins[change source]

Can anybody make this extremely odd kit........? ChrisTheDude 21:38, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yup. Now available as _harlequin. Wiggy! 15:34, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers Wiggy!, you da man :-) ChrisTheDude 15:55, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The harlequin pattern has been removed from commons. I commented out the usage of the template here as it was reporting an error. --Creol(talk) 03:46, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vonwhitewide[change source]

Is there anyone who can make the above to go with whiteVwide please? insane in the brain 17:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? Its not clear what you want ... Wiggy! 22:01, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is a kit pattern called whiteVwide, I was after one doing in the same style but a wideV on a white background insane in the brain 08:05, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here you go. Image:Kit_body_wideVonwhite.png Wiggy! 15:44, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That English team from Wigan[change source]

There isn't a pattern that looks like Wigan Athletic's real kit. Can someone make one? I'm not logged in.

The one currently in use seems close enough to me ChrisTheDude 14:32, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, it doesn't. The white sides are OK, but we need a kit that has shoulders that go far down and meet the sides.

It does seem fine to me as well. The purpose of the kit template isn't to be an exact copy of the kit, but only to give the reader a rough image on how it looks". The one used in the article does that just fine. – Elisson • T • C • 16:58, 6 February 2007

The English national team[change source]

Could somebody please make the English kit? There isn't a pattern for the home [2] or the away [3] kit. There are some non-symmetrical horizontal stripes on the home shirt. The away shirt is plain red, but there are some designs on the shorts. Bluedevil04 12:34, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Too minor details to be included, IMHO. – Elisson • T • C • 12:54, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but they are present on the Spanish version. [4] Bluedevil04 2:40, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but this is not the Spanish Wikipedia. Another Wikipedia doing something doesn't mean we should do the same. The general opinion (here on the English Wikipedia) is that we should not include very minor details on the kits. – Elisson • T • C • 15:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

frusterated[change source]

ive uploaded 2 custom kits but i cant figure out how to use them

Image:Whitecapskithome.png HOME Image:Whitecapskitaway.png AWAY

i want to put them on the Vancouver Whitecaps article —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Morbital (talk • contribs) 23:10, 13 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

The first problem with the images above is that they are named incorrectly. Rather than Whitecapskithome.png, the name should be Kit_body_whitecapskithome.png and the template parameter should be _whitecapskithome.

That being said, editors here tend to dislike minute details on jerseys/kits/uniforms/etc. I edited Vancouver Whitecaps to use simpler, standard kit patterns. Take a look. Cheers. Rolando 06:13, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please recategorize[change source]

Please change the category link Category:Sports templates to Category:Football templates. Thank you. Mike Peel 22:08, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed the category altogether. Category:Football kit templates, which was already included, is a subcategory of Category:Football templates. Picaroon 03:07, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added another parent: Category:Kit and uniform templates. Rolando 04:47, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Scotland away kit[change source]

New Scotland away kit is now in use, doesn't seem to be a kit here to match it. Any chance one could be created? Archibald99 18:36, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Try this on for size? (kit commented out due to deletion of pattern)

Wiggy! 22:45, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect, thanks. Archibald99 23:03, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Marseille 1993[change source]

Would someone be interested in created this kit, for the 1993 Champiomns League fimal article? It's beyond my expertise, I'm afraid. ArtVandelay13 16:00, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hooped socks[change source]

Any chance of modifying the template so we can have detailing on socks? Arsenal's new away kit has hooped socks phttp://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=News&article=471231&lid=NewsHeadline&Title=New+away+kit+2007/08+-+Wallpaper] but the current template cannot deal with them currently.

Aston Villa Away[change source]

I have updated most of the AVFC kit now so can someone please add the thin blue pinstripe. I tried using the two pinstripe and it didn't look right so can we have a new template? Picture can be found at http://www.avfc.premiumtv.co.uk/javaImages/15/b7/0,,10265~3323669,00.jpg .Thanks. Adam

(kit commented out due to deletion of the pattern) Have you tried _4thinstripesonwhite (above) ? I just used _lineonwhite for the single pinstripe on the sleeves, but I think they could do with another.

Invisible shirts[change source]

There are a few shirt designs that have been added recently that I can't see. They are:

_adidas_geist_green
_adidas_geist_gold
_adidas_piping_gold
_adidas_snake_black
_adidas_snake_blue
_adidas_snake_red_white_shoulder_stripes

I can see them at their upload.wikipedia pages but not in any articles (although for some weird reason the adidas snake black will display when I compare the current Newcastle United page with the one that's fifty revisions old). I have this problem in Firefox, IE6 and IE7. Does anyone know what could be causing this, or is anyone else having this problem (I can't be the only one, surely!). Any help will be appreciated, cheers. Dbam ^Talk/_{Contributions} 17:13, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What's the problem? Everything seems OK here. Has something changed?
