Sorry, I forget that not everyone is a programmer!

HTML is the computer language that web sites use to tell your browser what to display. The RP editor allows you to directly enter the HTML for a post, rather than using the editor's buttons. Not for the faint of heart!

It would be nice to be able to include screen shots in the wiki. Anyone have suggestions for tools to do that? Ideally I'd like to be able to select just part of the screen and clip that.

(I'm running XP, but suggestions for other platforms would be good.)

I just posted a few screenshots on the RP Wiki page. We may want to get a consensus on what size looks good on everyone's various systems before you start down a path that you may have to do over. Just a thought. screenshots

The system likes .png files just fine, so rename it something (or not) and upload it. You don't need to put it on flickr, you can upload to the wiki from your computer. The system will rename it something useless so don't bother renaming it on your machine unless you want to. Hey. I just sneezed 8 times. Wiki that.

I believe you just volunteered to take the screenshots, Scoot!
