How to add pics to Wiki

Post by Brian »

Is there any way to upload image files to use on the Wiki. I had written a really nice "how to" on setting up razor and when I tried to add it to the wiki I couldnt get the images to display. I ended up just putting a note in the wiki with a link to the forum page. The tutoral would be a GREAT addition to the Wiki but without the pictures it isn't as helpful. I have sent soooo many people to the forums after they ask in public chat about how to set razor up. They always say that they checked the Wiki but there isnt anything there. I always tell them to go to the forums and search "Brian". That takes them to my post. BUT, If I could get the inage files uploaded to the Wiki that would dramaticly cut back on the people becoming distraught while trying to find info on the set up for razor. :]

Image uploads on the wiki are now fixed. I remember this stopped working after an upgrade once and I was kinda afraid to go there, but it seems like it's fixed now :)

Thanks +Colibri. I got it moved over there. Is it possable to add the ability to ajust the font size and color on the wiki? I know you probabily have a million better things to do but if you ever get board and remember, that would be great. lol thanks for the addition though. Now maybe people will stop asking in world chat. :D

Possible, but please don't use the coloring too much. The idea is that there's just the titles and texts, maybe with bold and italic.

To change font color use this syntax:
<font color="red">this will be red.</font>
Here's a list of web colors: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors

You can also use the color number:
<font color="#f8a2b9">this looks like something pink</font>

Oh, since i see you're writing a razor tutorial, check this link out for the registry entries for Windows x64. It uses the "wow64node"

So it just HTML? Also, the registry entry that I posted worked for my windows 64 bit. I am running windows 7. Is there something else that runs 64 bit that this registry wont work on?
