Formatting Tips and Tricks

Indenting Lists
===Indenting Lists===
Basic lists are made using an asterisk (<nowiki>*</nowiki>) for the first branch of the list, and multiple asterisks are used to create sub-branches (<nowiki>**</nowiki>).This can go out to five indentions. When using lists, do not put an extra line break between the list entries. For example:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| <nowiki>* Main</nowiki>
<nowiki>** Sub</nowiki>| * Main
** Sub
|-
===CSS===
The V5 Homebrew wiki is designed to support custom CSS used in pages, to do things like format text, change text color, and other functions. While we would like the use of this to be sparing (so that our readers are spared from, as other wikis have coined it, 'rainbow vomit webpages'), CSS is allowed to be used. You can find a ton of resources on using CSS on the web, but we ask that you use it mainly to format text if need-be.
 
==Images==
The wiki allows users to upload images for their projects, such as character images for SPCs or clan logos and such for Clans and Bloodlines. There are a few things to keep in mind about images:
* Don't abuse them. Don't just upload to upload; only upload what you'll use. Administration will remove this functionality if it is abused.
* Keep all images PG-13; no nudity, no pr0n, etc.
 
===Uploading Images===
There are two ways to upload images:
* You can navigate to the Upload file link under tools to upload an image.<br>[[Image:upload.PNG]]
** From there, follow the on-screen instructions to upload.
* Or you can use the multi-upload tool found on the wiki. When you click Edit on a page, you'll get the edit box with the following gray bar:<br>[[Image:dragdrop.PNG]]
** You can drag and drop images onto that gray bar. Once you do, you'll be given some options to upload, overwrite existing images, etc. for the images. Simply follow the on screen prompts to upload files.
 
===Image Names===
Image names can be used to do some tricks on the wiki via templates. When you upload an image, you can use any name you like. When you upload Clan logo images, you can use the following filename:
* SymbolClanClan NameV5.png
** Ex: SymbolClanGargoyleV5.png, SymbolClanCappadocianV5.png
 
This filename is used on SPC pages, and will allow the image you've uploaded/created to display on those pages under the SPC section.
