I think it'd be a good idea to replace the current example screenshots with .gif's, simply because they can so much better demonstrate how these particle effects actually look like in-game. Alternatively, there could also be a YouTube demonstration video, in a similar manner as weapons, but that's just an idea. - [[User:Selbi|Selbi]] 15:38, 26 October 2011 (PDT)

:{{C|Oppose}} No, gifs are horrible. They waste bandwidth, look ugly, make the page sluggish and distracting. A video would be a better solution, but overkill in this case. ~ '''[[User:Ath|Ath]]''' ([[User_talk:Ath|talk]]) 17:52, 26 October 2011 (PDT)
 
::Well maybe have video links next to each effect (instead of having the video viewable on the page), or just one video demonstrating all of them?

:::That was my idea, one video to demonstrate all particle effects. YouTube has the ability to link to a specific point in the timeline of a video, so there could be links for each effect on the Wiki page. Also yeah, .gif's maybe are a bad idea, but I was more focusing on the question of ''should there be a demonstration video for unusual effects'' anyway. - [[User:Selbi|Selbi]] 07:06, 27 October 2011 (PDT)
 
::::I don't think a video is really needed for this, the images are all that's really needed. It's a much better option for the user to use itemtest instead, as that way they can see what the effect looks like personally, and specify the hat to attach to. ~ '''[[User:Ath|Ath]]''' ([[User_talk:Ath|talk]]) 10:44, 27 October 2011 (PDT)
 
:::::Actually there's already a demonstration video present on the [[Particle effects#Demonstration|Particle effects]] article. I think it might be a good idea to add it to this article too.

:He's got a very good point. I have noticed Bonk Boy is missing from the list, and it is available as unusual. Some proof if needed. http://www.tf2outpost.com/search/3655003 [[User:Taser9001|Taser9001]] 04:25, 25 May 2012 (PDT)
 
::The table used on this page has since been re-done, and is much simpler. It shouldn't be too hard to edit now, even for someone with only a basic understanding of the wiki markup.
