Are language changes supposed to be handled like styles when you modify? Keep the master language untouched and create a child language to modify? If so, f-me. I think I've been doing all my mods to the master language.

Yes, the master gets over written by upgrades.
 
I know I suggested this in the support forum Bob, but in the meantime I was thinking of just editing a template and trying to add in the thumbnails of the user's showcase items in their signature, which will link to their showcase items. Can that be achieved with a foreach loop in the template? Would it cause a substantial page load hit?

Unfortunately, No. To do what you want requires programming code. There is no getting around that requirement. There is no data to to "use" until you expose it (either through code or cache). I briefly discussed both methods in the existing discussion on this topic (I personally prefer the user cache method that I explained as it is very low impact with 0 query overhead). Can you please resume discussion there so that those that are subscribed to the thread that are also interested in the topic can be alerted? thank you.

I know you can attach a showcase to a thread. Can I start a showcase for someone and attach it to their thread and have them own the showcase?

Yes. Create the item, then edit the item after it has been created and add the thread ID for their thread. Then use the reassign item to give them ownership of the item.
 
I created the item and reassigned it but I can't find the edit button anymore so I can add the thread.

Hi Bob,

Just upgraded from 2.1.0 to 2.1.1 and got a dozen of these in my error log. Anything to worry about? I'm wondering if the member listed was browsing Showcase at the time?!

Yes, that is what caused it. I actually have code to prevent that, however, I forgot to change the version ID in the _preDispatch. You can just ignore those.
 
Yes, the master gets over written by upgrades.
Hey Bob, I just read this:

Customised phrases are not automatically overwritten, they are flagged as outdated if they have been changed in a later release.

The help manual may be of some use when it comes to languages and phrases: http://xenforo.com/help/languages-and-phrases/
When you said the master gets overwritten, were you referring to Showcase upgrades or XF core upgrades? Brogan is saying XF doesn't overwrite the master.

I only ask because I'm getting inconsistencies with what languages people are seeing on the site and I don't know if I have my languages organized correctly.
