Revision as of 07:11, 22 May 2024

I would be nice to get some images of missing models on this page. I've found a few on Flickr, but my attempts to link and align never end well! Apologies for being useless, but I am not a Flickr user. It would be great if someone else could kindly do this? Suitable images are here:

  • Beauty Flex III [1]
  • Beauty Flex IV [2]
  • Beautyflex T - can't find but here's a "Wardflex I" which is a rebadge of the T [3]
  • Finally, here's a clearer image of the Beauty Flex V [4]

I appreciate that you're frustrated with how opaque the MediaWiki software can be. But when we just have a few editors scattered around the world, the answer to "who's in charge here?" is most often, "you are." Take a look at Help:Adding_images#Arranging_images. For grouping more than one image we kind of hijack the "table" syntax of MediaWiki. Pay attention that a "pipe" (vertical line on the keyboard) just starts a new "table cell"; BUT a pipe plus a dash starts a new row. If you would like a number of images in a vertical column, then the pipe-dash combo precedes each complete Flickr image template. Close the table with another pipe+curly bracket.
For some Flickr users who don't allow downloading their photos, then grabbing the image URL for the wiki template's second line is an ugly hack. View all sizes, click the appropriate size (usually 500 pixels), then use your browser's "view source" option. Scroll very far down past a bunch of URLs for square, small, medium, large; and there will be one on its own line, which you should try copying and pasting (trim off anything before https:)--Vox (talk) 03:29, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Mix of Beautyflex and Beauty Flex

The last link to sources gives us the key to reckognize, that this article fairly (or terribly?) mixes up the two definitely different TLR series in one article:
