In regards to ORCS addons - I can appreciate the frustration some people are feeling in not being allowed to discuss their addons. For whatever reason, though, ORCS have requested that we close any discussion about their addons on this forum. For the sake of honoring the addon makers request, and to try and avoid conflicts, we have complied with their request.

If any addon making team or individual asked for similar treatment, they would get it. We're not playing favorites with ORCS at all...

For the sake of the members of this forum, what was the groups reasoning for wishing to disallow discussion of their work on this particular forum?

I don't want to act offended, but, such a request is a very powerful statement against this forum, and those that choose to discuss here.

Changing subject if there was something else before.

What font does this webpage use?

I really like it, and am I allowed to use it on my webpage?

The standards is just terrible

Looks like Verdana 8pt for posts, 7pt for small text, 10pt for titles...

Wierd... I type:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>HTML </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE"><span style='color:#333333'><<span style='color:blue'>FONT</span>=Verdana><<span style='color:blue'>FONT</span> SIZE=3></span>

Baby jesus cries when you use html tags instead of CSS.

Think this is going bit off-topic?

Not that of a pro.

Anyways, doesn't matter, solved it myself.

that's strictly a client-side browser hax, troll your own %systemroot%/fonts folder to see what you have. There's no guarantee that another client running something like <span style='font-family:impact'><span style='font-size:10pt;line-height:100%'>linu<span style='color:orange'>x</span></span></span> is going to be able to render it.

Additionally, you'll want to stuff as much as possible into .css headers to clean up and optimize the HTML code. The more code you put into the HTML, the less manageable it will be, and the more laggy it will be.

Not gonna have much actually. Just a little text, pics and downloadable content.

Can I use some of these smileys on this forum to place some on another forum? Some are alot better than the default Proboard ones... I'll upload them on my image host, naturally.

Is the title of this thread "HTML For Dummies"?

I will help you with the answer:

No it isn't.

Sure, most were found by googling anyways so we certainly don't assume any ownership

Cows and spamming. Now where have I heard that before

Ok, FINAL WARNING. Stick to the topic - small talk/spam/unrelated posts in this thread will from now on be punished with WL boxes and post restrictions.

It is unfortuante that it had to come to this, but then you had over 160+ pages to get the idea

[codarl 1]

dear mods,

Quote[/b] ]it's wisened, not whizened. That has been irritating me for about 2 years - change it or else.

If you want you can correct this mistake, however, since nobody knows me as Gandalf the white anymore, you can give me a complete new title if you want to be creative .

cheers,

Codarl

How the heck do you get a custom title from the beginning anyways?

That was actually meant as a serious question, so can I get it answered?

After all, this is Ask a mod.

Something regarding the 100kb image rule. Wouldn't it be better to have a maximum for a complete post? Like 600kb per post (6 images each 100kb). Since people in the OFP:CP topic are now cutting up pictures in smaller pieces and then paste them together, wouldn't it be better to have a size limit for a complete post?

EDIT:

Is it also possible to change the membergroup I am in to Modmakers. Thank you.

I agree, it's rather annoying.

Same if it's possible.

[ralphwiggum 6]

the mod maker member level was created years back when there was a beta testing for O2 was held. It was supposed to give those people access to restricted forum for O2.

Now that O2 and visitor is out, the member level is obsolete and lives in name only. Although it might be tempting, there is no real benefit for it and would rather leave it alone.
