== Hat previews? ==
 
I know it probably require a lot of work, but I think it would be neat if we got up a hat preview. While the list of colors is appreciated, seeing the actual results would be very useful to most TF2 players. Of course, this would lead to a massive amount of images, but there is space for that on the hosting right? --[[User:Ailure|Ailure]] 04:35, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{c|in progress}}I wasn't around when you made this comment, but I'm already working on that.  Hopefully we'll have a good implementation in a few hours. -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 13:45, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
::Awesome! I look forward to that then! :) It's hard to tell how some colors would wind up looking on the hats, so this should be really useful. --[[User:Ailure|Ailure]] 19:04, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 
::: I have noticed that some of the colors don't look the same as in game. I saw the tyrants helm with the white paint and it was white, not pink like it shows on the wiki page. [[User:Alinay|Alinay]] 00:46, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:::: Are you sure?  The alpha channel in the Tyrants Helm's texture is slightly transparent, so it should be slightly pink in game.  If you're correct then either mine and Pilk's method of painting is incorrect, or the in-game lighting is eliminating the "pink".  Can you get a screenshot for us to review.  Thanks -[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 00:58, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

:::::: There's the article's image and backpack icon in the articles for comparison.  If it wouldn't require re-doing so much work for a non-painted version with the same angle of the painted ones, then I would support your suggestion - but only because of my need for consistency - it's a minor thing.-[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 03:25, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
: It's worth noting that items that change color by team, often will change color with paint. Granted, getting BLU previews would be twice the work for some hats, but... it's worth mentioning. [[User:CloudT|CloudT]] 10:51, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:: I've also noticed that quite a few hats will still have a very faint shade of their original color, despite the paint. Is this a bug or is this intentional? [[User:Alphard|Alphard]] 05:09, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

: Yes it does. It's the RGB value. You don't need to convert it to hex, although they're essentially the same number. rgb(216, 190, 216). - [[User:GAMEchief|GAMEchief]] 13:48, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== List of coloured hats ==
 
 
 
There's a list of coloured hats with images here: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1455845.

I believe that some of the higher-quality images should be used unless/until better alternatives come around.  I recommend ones such as [http://img268.imageshack.us/img268/4748/billsrealhat.jpg] , [http://imgkk.com/i/1sgq.png] , and [http://i.imgur.com/t6zxc.png] , where the view is clear and the poses are interesting. --[[User:Ashsflames|Ashsflames]] 03:24, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Is it possible to reverse a paint job? Or once painted, can the hat not be reverted to its original color? [[User:Ensign Epic|Ensign Epic]] 00:41, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

== Pages for the colours? ==
 
 
 
Just throwing an idea out there, wouldn't it be useful if we had separate pages for the various colours? That way, people who got one colour can see which hat it looks best on. --[[User:Tinker|Tinker]] 20:01, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

== Color codes? ==
 
 
 
Is there a reason colors are listed in hex? The engine uses 0-255 or 0-1 RGB values for everything material related... [[User:A Boojum Snark|A Boojum Snark]] 23:03, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
 
: 0-255 and 0-1 RGB values? If I look at the files, it uses single 7-number value to define the color with the 0-255 RGB values written as comments ("value" "7511618" // 114 158 66). -- [[User:Vi3trice|<font color=#771d6d>'''Vi3trice'''</font>]] {{adm}} <sub>([[User_talk:Vi3trice|talk]])</sub> 23:15, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:: I don't see a problem with using hex.  It's probably the most universally recognisable method of communicating colour in computer-related applications (when I first learned about referencing colours on a computer, it was always the hex I dealt with).-[[User:RJackson|<span style="background-color:#FF0000;color:white;font-size:0.7em;padding: 0 2px;">RJ</span>]]{{mod}} 23:25, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
 
::: Yeah, the file has color values in large number format (the decimal form of the hex value). However that's quite an odd method that would be ridiculous to list here, but at the same time nowhere is the color represented in it's hex form, only the 255RGB form is mentioned in the comment. One example of what I meant about 0-255 and 0-1 RGB is [http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$color here], and pretty much every other place developers may encounter a color it will be one of those two forms, that's why I find it strange to list them in hex here. They're also in a column labeled "color", with a background OF the color, so I don't think any difference in recognition between hex or 255RGB (if it exists) is an issue. [[User:A Boojum Snark|A Boojum Snark]] 01:42, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
 
::: addendum: I suppose it's worth noting the pink paint can itself even uses the 255RGB form in it's name. [[User:A Boojum Snark|A Boojum Snark]] 01:53, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Black & White Paint Dropping? ==

== Change from Hats you can Paint to Hats you can't Paint ==
 
 
 
Why did this change happen, it was easier to go from the Paint page directly to the hat you would like to see painted than to go to the hat page, forget which hats aren't paintable and just going through each one anyway. I understand there are less un-paintable hats, but usability definitely took a hit. Just my 2cents [[User:Rhonlore|Rhonlore]] 03:12, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

== Painted + Named Hats ==
 
Since we can now remove paint and names, do we know which is removed first? I named my batter's helmet, then painted it, and when I clicked the "Remove" button, it asked me if I was sure I wanted to unpaint it. But, that was one hat only, so I'm unsure if it's related to the order you put names/paints on.

== Can we change the video to something simplier? ==
 
 
 
I think having a video with the title "I made Johnny Bravo" encourages other people to add trivia on  how similar a painted hat is to pop culture references. I propose we use this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUol8gt5WmM. It's simpler and shorter. [[User:ShunyValdez|ShunyValdez]] 03:15, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

::Well, to be able to mix paints correctly, you'd have to use primary colors for best results. Mixing colors like, say, green, purple, orange and so on would quickly turn into brownish colors instead of nice mixes. But as you may know, you don't have red or blue-only paint cans and the closest thing to yellow is gold. As it is set for now, the painting system is not ready for this kind of feature. Maybe some day, who knows, they'll be selling palettes for us to mix paints before applying them? ^^' — [[User:BadDog|BadDog]] 05:12, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Strange thing about trying to translate. ==
 
 
 
Hello guys.
 
So, I tried to translate the Paint can page to pt-br (brazilian portuguese).
 
 
 
OK, i translated it, but, there's a problem...
 
 
 
When the Paint_Can/pt-br page changes, the original page changes too. So I can't translate it it.

Unless it's considered unnecessary, someone should start taking pictures of hats colored with Team Spirit.

== 216-190-216 ==
 
 
 
"The "216-190-216" in the name of Color No. 216-190-216 is the RGB representation '''of its hexadecimal color code, #D8BED8.'''"
 
 
 
I removed the second part becuase "216-190-216" is not an RGB representation of the hex colour code, their's no such thing as an RGB representation of a hex colour code. RGB is the mix needed to create the colour, the hex colour code is actually a hexidecimal conversion of the RGB. [[User:DragonJTS|DragonJTS]] 04:17, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

:DragonJTS is correct, that line doesn't make much sense:  Decimal and Hexadecimal are 2 ways of representing the same numbers:  Decimal is base 10 (counting 1-10), Hexadecimal is base 16: 1...10, A(11)...F(16).  We don't even need to mention the hexadecimal form as the game always uses it in decimal.  I've just added to the end of the line "...that items are painted with", it reads much better. -[[User:RJackson|<span class="burbg" style="margin-right:1px;text-shadow: #538237 1px 1px 0px;">RJ</span>]]{{Sta}} 09:11, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
 
:I agree with DragonJTS and RJackson... this doesn't need to be stated.  The hexadecimal isn't really relevant if it's not what the game uses, like RJackson stated... If it's just representing a different representation of the color, then why are we not posting the CMYK, LAB, HSV, HSL, YUV, YIC, or Pantone color equivalents? Unless we're posting these color conversions for a reason, it doesn't make much sense. I don't see any good reason, so I don't think this should be in there.

== Paint Color Implementation Update? (Dec 2) ==
 
 
 
After the December 2 update, I instantly noticed that my Indubitably Green Mann Co. Cap, which originally retained a tinge of it's original color, now has a much more vibrant and can-accurate color, yet I notice that no one else has noticed this. Can anyone else verify this change? [[User:Mariner1712|Mariner1712]] 18:14, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
Okay, I see that at least [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/User:Stewsta Stewsta] has been [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/index.php?title=File%3APainted_Mann_Co._Cap_729E42.png&htmldiff=Visual+comparison&diff=234342&oldid=112417 updating the painted item previews] I think we should at least note the color implementation change in the main page, if not on all painted items.

Hi, im new and not really sure what im doing, just letting someone know that the new paints and black and white paints are now avaliable in the mann co store for $2.50
 
Anyone who is able to edit the page should add that information as it says new paints can only be unboxed.

== Typo in the translation of the painted hats. ==
 
 
 
My question, the "This item is not paintable", where is it stored for the translation (as in, what template), because there is kinda a retarded typo in it, in English it would be like "These item is not paintable", so if anyone could give me the correct template link to it, I can fix it. [[User:PredatorDuck|PredatorDuck]] 13:34, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 
:Nevermind, I found it. It was in "Template:Painted Items/row", but I forgot that alot of pieces of code were hidden. [[User:PredatorDuck|PredatorDuck]] 13:41, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
== Team Spirit Price ==
 
The page lists the price of Team Spirit as the same as the other paints. I checked the item price core template and everything seems to be in order. Any ideas, guys?--[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] {{mod}} 07:46, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:I've checked: apparently the page name overrides the template parameter. Copy-paste in non-purchasable item pages (i.e. SCOUT) returns NULLNULLNULL, on Dueling Mini Game returns 0.99, etc. '''EDIT:''' Problem found, I'll fix it right now (missing "item=" before item name).--[[User:Kid Of The Century|Kid Of The Century]] 08:16, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

== Origin of Team Spirit ==
 
 
 
Since were describing where the colors of the other Team paints are coming now, since there are more than one, it may be worth mentioning that the original Team Spirit is the exact same color as Medic's gloves.[[User:CidTheNinja|CidTheNinja]] 20:35, 1 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
== "Hair" Hat Paint Previews?  ==
 
 
 
Some of the screenshots for the painted variants of Hair Hats such as the Professor's Peculiarity or the Coupe D'isastre show it on the characters head. I feel this is the better method of displaying them, however for many others (Magistrate's Mullet, Hound Dog, Big Country etc.) this isn't the case. Could we get some sort of standardization on this?
