Take two... action!
Are there any lists of formatting codes? And by that, I mean lists. With everything.
More specifically, is it possible to place text in front of a picture? Uhh, That's probably it then. It's always EpicAwesomeness' fault 17:59, January 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, the first time, I presume you meant to make it a forum and did what it said and it didn't work? Blame Wikia. They broke it.
- Anyhow, formatting hacks... there's a list somewhere, but I've no idea where. So I usually just look things up on mediawiki and in the site css when I need to, which is of course no help to you, right? Actually, I think the beginner's guide has some decent formatting stuff, too.
- What exactly do you mean, placing text in front of a picture, exactly, though? Because some ways would be more complicated than others... ~ 18:11, 28 January 2011
- An actual, organized list? Here? Are you mad? Most of us just hit "edit" when we see some neat formatting thingy and steal it.
- And it's easy to put text before a picture, , although I don't know why you'd want to. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 18:32, January 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Perhaps he wants to have text when you scroll over it Or like Aleister has been doing MegaPleb • Dexter111344 • Complain here 18:50, January 28, 2011 (UTC)
- Wow, that's irritating. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 19:15, January 28, 2011 (UTC)

Actually I wanted to have a picture there, and then normal text (eg this) directly infront of it. Alternately, is there a way to make that coloured backing, for example the yellow bit here? Oh yeah, It's almost definately possible to link an image to a page, but can someone explain it (yeah I'm an idiot)? Thanks Wait... stop! I mean, are there any lists with like, a lot of stuff there?
Like that? ~ 16:08, 29 January 2011
- ps - see {{purplespleen}} for a better example if that is indeed what you were after.
