Help on adding a Picture to a deck description

TappedOut forum

Posted on May 11, 2013, 5:07 p.m. by Dreno33

Honestly in reading the formatting rules and the external link to learn more in depth it does not help me at all, lol. Can anyone else explain it a bit more simplified?

Also, I would like to know how to center text in the description

centre the text? no idea

Putting a picture, you use html code, upload your picture to a hosting website, and look for the html code, which looks real long and messy when you paste it, but ends up as a picture.

You're going to need to use HTML formatting for both of these. Look up text centering and image embedding.

Here is an example of what you are going to do

< img src="URL" alt="your text here" >

but with no spaces between the blocks and text

in the URL, you can just right click on any image and click copy image source, and then paste and replace the URL letters in the example directly.

then the Your Text Here block, you put whatever you want centered on the image.

also, if you want the whole thing centered on the page you will need the brackets with < center > and < / center > on the other side

For the images themselves, I recommend hosting them elsewhere if they're not already on Tappedout or your personal server/website, to make sure you're not leeching someone else's bandwidth. I'll second the recommendation of Imgur for high-traffic sites.

To center text, put < center > your text here < / center >
Make sure to remove the spaces between the <, >, and /.
