How to Start Your Customs Thread
/being PSA
I was looking through some threads tonight for some units to nominate for the Barracks or the Halls and I noticed that not everyone adds all their customs in their first post. I think everyone should add all the customs to their first post. It makes it much easier to see all your stuff at once, and not have to go through each page of the thread to see all your stuff. It doesn't take much work, you likely will still have the link on your clipboard from pasting it into the new post, why not take a few more seconds and add it to the first post as well? /end PSA |

Yeah, it makes it quite easy to see the new stuff. I copied this idea from someone on .HQ, but it is a good idea.
You can look at my thread (shameless PLUG) to see what we're talking about. I keep the newest right at the top. "Just let the dirt shower over you" - Brennan Huff "Do Good, Avoid Evil" - Charles N. Mahlman Check out my Custom Cards Check out my blog: http://docsavagetales.blogspot.com/ |

Good call. Just did mine and added 15 new cards
(Some most people have already seen, though) On my command, fix bayonets. |

Good Idea...
...and if you really want to go the 'extra mile', you can even provide an alphabetized index of your customs on the first page, with clickable thumbnails and names that link to the larger card images and character bios, respectively...

Okay, the problem is, when you edit the first post, it doesnt mark the thread as having a new item... so you have to go and post something to the end of it. Is there a way around that?

You post the new custom in both places.
It makes it easiest for new and old. And I put a mention of what page the new unit discussion is on, so that anyone seeing the first post can know where the discussion of that unit was. |

What I'm trying to figure out, is how does one go about posting images on the message boards here? I'd love to post the printable photos of the customs I've made in my custom thread instead of just having a bunch of typed up stats, but beyond clicking the "Img" and trying to throw random http stuff alongside it, I'm honestly without clue or direction.
If someone wants to take pity on a poor technofool like myself, any help would be greatly appreciated. If this info has already been written up somewhere, please point me in the right direction! |
