Forum:New Powers Page

Well, this is my version of the powers page that would fit in the upcoming new skin, by virtue of being designed for a thinner content area.

Changes you'll notice: Things I'd still like to do:
 * Thinner. Squash your browser to the size of the new content area on the current Powers page and you'll see why this is necessary.
 * Cleaner. Having smaller icons and the way it handles bonus powers makes for a cleaner article.
 * Shepard/Squadmate separation.
 * This was done because apart from a list of class powers there was no information on what powers each squadmate gets, to show this I created the squadmates section to show what powers they have, I then moved the list of their class powers to this section. It made sense then to sort the article by Shepard/Squadmates and then have sub-sections for each kind of power those characters can get.
 * More information.
 * How and why bonus powers are unlocked is now explained on this page.
 * What the differences are between each class's class power is now briefly explained here.
 * What powers each squadmate has is now there for quick reference, not just the player class.
 * Upgrades are gone. While this was removed just so it wasn't taking up space in my edit window, I actually would like to remove it as I really don't like how this wiki has handled upgrades. That's another issue though (in short, there should be an article that effectively recreates the research terminal).
 * Minimise text as much as possible, while still keeping the explanations in some form.

Basically I think that this version will work considerably better than the current version with the new skin and I also think it's more useful generally speaking.
