The New Tutorial System
The new system has been under going tests for a while now. We're finally glad to release it for everyone to use. We hope that this new system will make guides more organized and will also reward users who submit guides more functionality. This little guide will teach how to do the basics for now.
Multiple Pages
To use multiple pages, you would have to use the bb code
Code:
[break=Title Of Next Page Here]
For example. Using this mumble jumble as an example

Uploading Header Images
Images are only allowed to be 100x100. No larger, no smaller. If you do not provide an image, wan automatic image will be created for you.
Please provide a nice clear picture that best describes what you are doing. To upload an image, you must create a new thread. Then click on upload images. Gifs and Jpegs are only accepted. Remember 100x100 is max dimensions.
Rating Tutorials
Tutorials can only be rated by members who did not write the tutorial. You must also use the full page reply in order to rate a thread. Quick replies do not work. There are 4 options to rate a tutorial. They are base on a scale of 1-5. Five being the highest. They are also based on these criteria.
- Graphics - How well did the user incorporate images into the tutorial
- Instructions - How well you understood the steps
- Content - The amount of content that was written
- Organization - How organize was the tutorial
When you submit ratings they will average out with other users. A user can only submit ratings once, however you may change your rating at anytime you choose to.
How To Be Featured?
Mods and Admins will choose the tutorials to featured. Remember to keep your tutorials nice and organize. Having an image is a bonus.
Using Tables
While html is not enabled, we have installed a new system that allows the use of tables through bb coding. It looks a little complicated, but i hope this tutorial explains it. If you do not understand try tinkering with the codes somewhere.
Currently there aren't any options to make the tables look differently.
HTML Code:
[table="head;sort=1a;width=80%"]Class|LVL|HP|MP
Ranger|120|14,567|234
Billposter|117|8939|2530
Ringmaster|115|11565|4300
Jester|105|8067|234[/table]
The above code becomes
| Class | LVL | HP | MP |
|---|
| Billposter | 117 | 8939 | 2530 |
| Jester | 105 | 8067 | 234 |
| Ranger | 120 | 14,567 | 234 |
| Ringmaster | 115 | 11565 | 4300 |
Here's a quick explanation.
HTML Code:
[table] - starts the code
[/table] - ends the code
="head;sort=1d;width=80%" - values must be put inside of double quotes
------ "head;" - this tells the table that it is the head of the table
------ "sort=1a;" - tells to sort by column 1, in an ascending order (a), put "d" for
descending order
------ "width=80%;" - the width of the table
------ "Class|LVL|HP|MP" - because this is in the same line as the "head" value, it will be
the head of the table
------ "Ranger|120|14,567|234" - press enter to line break so it starts a new row of the
table content
------ "|" - by putting the line symbol you tell the table to create a new column
Links, and images are allowed in tables. There is a maximum of 30 rows and 30 columns. the maximum width is 1000px.
