+''Imported from [[User talk:ZS#Texture images]]''.
 You might want to try [http://gta.wikia.com/index.php?title=Wheel_Arch_Angels&diff=214813&oldid=214193 moving some of these images] [http://gta.wikia.com/index.php?title=Hooker_Inn_Express&diff=214814&oldid=214128 to the left side of the page] in order to give existing images [http://gta.wikia.com/index.php?title=TransFender&diff=214815&oldid=214101 some room to breathe] ([[Squid Row|unless the page has no images to begin with]]), the reason being that it'll help to prevent [http://gta.wikia.com/index.php?title=Angel_Pine_Medical_Center&oldid=213710 images from stacking] and [http://gta.wikia.com/index.php?title=Ocean_View_Hospital&oldid=214369 resulting in a disorganized page which images are not aligned to the sections they are assigned to]. If you have any other questions regarding this issue, contact me. - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 12:02, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
+:This approach is only suitable when you only have an image of a sign and an image of something else, like that of the location. Stacking two images is fine only if their subject matter is the same and their thumbnail lengths are nearly the same or equal. Otherwise, having one small image over a larger one looks awkward, especially when thumbnail borders ("|thumb|" parameter) are used. And placing the logo on the left still allows it to serve as a lead image, because it's still, in essence, at the top of the page.
+:The thing is though, some of these textures are redundant, especially [[:Image:AngelPineMedicalCenter-GTASA-logo.png|signage that only spell out the location]] [[:Image:CrippenMemorialHospital-GTASA-logo.png|without any additional slogans]], or [[Transfender|signs that are already very much visible]] in the image of the location. But I'll let all this pass. - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 19:35, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
+:I could see how some of those images may be useless such as the businesses. I was going to add those onto the businesses page when ready, but what if the images are the same length with the border of a thumbnail even though you can't use a caption? It did look better on the [[Burger Shot]] page. Oh, and this isn't related to these textures but I found a new method of getting images from GTA San Andreas by the camera. Also out of curiosity might I ask when you are active. I've noticed that you are from about 4:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m in my time zone, although it may be different.--<font color="darkblue">'''[[:User:Gta-mysteries|Gta-mysteries]]'''</font><sup>''[[User talk:Gta-mysteries|Talk page]]''</sup> 19:50, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
+:Most of these texture images will still be too big when enlarged to adapt to some of the second images. Again, this left-right setup applies when you have an image of the texture and another subject. Again, these images are still fine, as long as it doesn't hinder presentation. And That's roughly the time period I'll be around, but I won't be available all the time because I got crap to do IRL. - [[User:ZS|ZS]] 19:59, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
