How to Edit the WIKI

First and foremost, BB Code does not work at this time... the same goes for code tags and spoiler tags. As is now, the Wiki runs off of HTML-esque code

For additional help, consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.

How to add in an Image

To add in an image you must follow these steps:

1. Look to the left of the page. On the sidebar, under Toolbox select the link that says "UPLOAD FILE"
2. Select Browse and select your image you want to upload... Note that although the maximum file-size is 10000x10000, you will most likely have to resize it before you upload it to fit the screen.
3. When you select your file, Copy down the auto-generated text under "Destination filename"... alternative, you may give it it's own filename from that menu.. though be sure the file extension stays at the end. If you want, feel free to add in a description, although it is optional
4. Scroll Down and Click Upload
5. Create/Edit the article in question. When you are in the article, on your text editor, select the image, or type in:
File:PASTE DESTINATION FILENAME HERE
6. Click save and your article will now have an image

Alternate Way

On your article, type in File:WRITE A RANDOM FILENAME HERE.jpg or click the image button at the top of the screen. Once the article is done, select save. Once the article goes back to the view page, Click the red link that was made from the file command. Select the image, make sure that the filename is the same; and hit upload

How to add an info-box
