Posting Tips

From Voice of the Proletariat

Something should go here about different html tags and how to buy more jim beam for jcache.

Please provide a summary of the changes you make to a page for each edit. It really isn't much trouble, and you'll be glad that you (and everyone else) did!

Posting images, links, etc

banniNation uses good old fashion HTML tags for fancy post goodness (i.e. posting images, or inserting a link), instead of that confusing BBcode nonsense. Thankfully, not all HTML tags are allowed (such as the infamous blink tag) to prevent malicious posters from giving us all seizures. Here's a quick guide to some (but not all) of the allowed HTML tags:

• Links:
  

Your link tag should follow the following format:
<a href="The URL goes here"> The text people will click goes here </a>
Example: <a href="http://www.bannination.com">The greatest website evar!!111</a>

• Images:
  

It's good internet practice to use a 3rd party image host rather than hotlinking images. This can prevent embarrassing situations. Once you've got your image hosted, your image tag should follow the following format:
<img src="The image URL goes here"/>
Example: <img src=""/>

• Bolding:
  

Use sparingly! Use for adding emphasis. Your bold tag should follow the following format:
<b>Text you want to be bolded goes here</b>
Example: <b>Really important point!!!</b>

• Italics:
  

Also use sparingly! Also used for adding emphasis. Your italics tag should follow the following format:
<i>Text you want to be italicized goes here</i>
Example: <i>Another really important point in heavy wind!!!</i>
