Thundercolor
Hey Dot com. I noticed you gave me a color pointer on my talk page, which I'm greatful for. But what I didn't get was your pick? Which is your favorite? Thanks, ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 03:42, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
- My favorite is the one that's the easiest to read: #CD9B1D — It's dot com
- Oh, my bad. You were there. Sorry 'bout that. I think it was because of the two different styles of sig, or something. I dunno. I need more sleep... ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 14:43, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
- No probalo. — It's dot com 15:45, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
How to add images
Here's a quick rundown of how to add images:
- If you haven't already, read the image use policy. Note that the PNG format is preferred.
- Over in the toolbox on the left, click Upload file.
- (A) Browse to the file on your computer.
(B) Write a brief description in the summary area.
(C) Click the copyright checkbox.
(D) Click "Upload file". - Place code on your page in the following format, usually at the very top of the page (although you can place it in other places):
[[Image:IMAGE NAME|thumb and/or POSITION|SIZE|CAPTION]]
To make an image gallery, use the wollowing format:
<gallery>- Image:image1.png|caption 1
- Image:image2.png|caption 2
- Image:image3.png|caption 3
- </gallery>
Start each picture on a new line. You can use links and full wiki markup in the captions.
Click on these links here for a tutorial and more technical info and syntax info. HRWiki policy allows one uploaded image per user with no questions asked. For an example, I placed the following code at the top of your page: [[Image:cheatgold.PNG|thumb|300px|I've got a gold tooth. Wanna see it? Tough!]]
That's all. Have fun! — It's dot com 22:33, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
- Thanx a bunch for telling me how to add images and adding an image and all that crap. Love your page. Cheatachu72
- Anytime, my friend. It's my pleasure. And thanks for your comments about my page. — It's dot com 21:56, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
About reverting the pix
- YO! I do like what you did to my gallery, but I'd like to revert it for the time being. I do want to change it to your suggestion in the future, though. But, um, how do you revert? Cheatachu72 02:56, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- It was more complicated than normal to revert your page since you had already made changes to it. Here are some basic instructions on how to revert:
- To completely revert a page to a previous version:
- In the page history, click on the time and date of the version to which you want to revert; this will bring up the page as it was.
- Click "edit" at the top of the old version; it will warn you that you're editing an out-of-date version.
- Type a comment in the summary, usually something like "reverted edit by so-and-so; restored last version by what's her face".
- Click "Save page".
- To revert a page and keep some changes at the same time:
- Use the page history to determine what changes have been made since the version to which you want to revert.
- Copy the affected section to the clipboard. If there is more than one section, it may be necessary to do a normal revert (see above) and then make the changes again one at a time in later edits.
- In the page history, click on the time and date of the version to which you want to revert; this will bring up the page as it was.
- Click "edit" at the top of the old version; it will warn you that you're editing an out-of-date version.
- From the clipboard, paste in the new changes over the appropriate old section.
- Type a comment in the summary.
- Click "Show preview" to ensure that you pasted the new changes in correctly.
- Click "Save page".
- In the section way above, I've included the syntax for the image gallery for whenever you want to go back to that. — It's dot com 03:48, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Thanx. One more helpful thing you can either
