AgEnt: Is there any way to post color html screenshots (like the ones on angband.oook.cz)? The reason I ask is that it's hard to make sense of it when there isn't any way to differentiate water and light sources, for example.

FearofFours: Ctrl-] - it is in the in-game documentation

NeilStevens: That's a tricky issue. We can't just accept raw HTML from the user because it's too easy to cause the page to be invalid. I'm tempted to allow attachments to pages in the Character Sheet category.

Maybe a new macro that takes the html as an argument, validating it and displaying it (or making it an attachment for non-html forms of output)?

FearofFours: Ah sorry, misunderstood you AgEnt - you mean a way to POST it her on the wiki, dumb of me, sorry.

AgEnt: That's ok. I was thinking of an illustrated DitL, but attachments are fine too, especially if raw HTML messes up the wiki.

NeilStevens: Well, it would be possible to do it without messing up the wiki, it'd just require some work. Allowing selected attachments would require coding to prevent abuse, and allowing inline HTML screenshots would require some coding to validate the HTML, strip off the headers, and put the meat into a <div> so that it displays correctly. I'm kinda hoping that if I talk about this enough someone will volunteer to do it, since we've gotten volunteered macros before, heh.

SoulWynd: I guess I can give it a quick look. Speaking of that, you could install some of the code I made Neil, they're scatered around. Like the quickpost for chat and the new pageage thing. But then again, I'm not sure they work, I don't have a way to test them. Anyway, I'm not sure about direct upload but if people pasted the whole file inside some markup, it would be fine.

NeilStevens: I'm using your fixed last-modified thing on the FrontPage! As for quick post, I either missed or forgot that. I was gone for a week. Where is that?

SoulWynd: Did a fixed + more dynamic version of pageage as well. It's here Wiki Suggestions/Wanted Macro: A way to show the timestamp of a linked page and the forum post emulation is here Wiki Suggestions/Forum Emulation... I'm not sure they will work, I think they will require some testing. If you decide to install them and find some bugs, let me know and I will try to fix them.
