Community Week



Written by Astrikos for projecteducate 's community week. 

You may have noticed GIFS and hot things in people's journals and profiles. 

With HTML and CSS, you can add some hotness to your journals and profile.


Pretty neat, yes? 




Embedding Images and GIFsDeviantART Images

    Images on dA can easily be linked with thumbcodes. 

While on a deviation page, all you have to do is scroll down and look right until you see:


Copy and paste the thumb code. 

:thumb367944988:

:thumb367944988:


And if you want it bigger: 

:bigthumb367944988:


And bam. There you are.

If that's not good enough, you can play around with the size like this.. .

It's the thumbcode number without thumb in it... 

Trying it out... 


Gives us:



If you want to play with height of dA deviations (with HTML) , you will need to use the method explained below. 




All kinds of images, not just deviantART ones


With this method, you can link any image you want from the internet(including dA images) , however,  HTML is involved. 


And now.... 

Go find your adorable/sexy  GIF/Image on wherever. Tumblr is especially useful. So is google. Express yourself.


The code is... 



That's it! Easy. 

Right click, then select Copy Image URL to get the direct image URL. 

And then you're done!




Resizing: 

You can resize things the HTML way.


(Width: 310) (height: 430) 

(Code:


Default sizing


Or for deviantART images, sta.sh, all you need to do is drag and drop and resize that way. (in Journals) 

You can resize the HTML Way.. 

However, you need to have images that link to the deviation. 


Linking Images


Perhaps you want to create a graphic for your profile page that links to something else. 

First, find your image and upload it to st.ash or any other hosting program. Like flickr, tinypic, etc. 

I find sta.sh to be much quicker. 


I'll use project educate's header image:

 


I the image URL so  I right click on the image,
and select copy image URL

 fc01.dev iantart.net/fs70/o/2013/024/0/0/350289350_646745_322748439_464988_header2.png


Not : http:/communityrelations.deviantart.com/journal/Project-Educate-Continues-261205783  (this is from the address bar, not from right clicking and getting 'copy image URL'.) 


I take the image URL and paste it into this code format: 


<a href="whatyouwanttheimagetolinkto.com">g src="directimageURL.png/jpg/gif">a>
For your direct image URL, you can find by right clicking and selecting copy image URL. It will end in an image file extension. (.jpg,..png,.gif,etc.)

In our example, this gives us the code: 


<a href="projecteducate.deviantart.com"> <img src="http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs70/o/2013/024/0/0/350289350_646745_322748439_464988_header2.png"><a>


In turn gives us:
 

Click it! It will redirect you to project educate! 



You can also apply the resizing methods shown above. 


Embedding Video

You can also embed snazzy youtube videos into your journals! 



Take a look at this code:


Note: The ID means this....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_profilepage&v=CIx0P1KDkVk



An example would be 


And that gives us: 

 


Compatible video types: 

Youtube

Vimeo

Film 


Embedding a music player


CypherVisor


Good luck and happy embedding!

... I wanted to learn the linking images thing... but the description doesn't make any sense.
There's just blank image things.
There's not even a break down as to where you put the direct url and then the url for what
you want the image to actually link to.

Astrikos In reply to ErraticRhapsody [2014-08-14 01:21:28 +0000 UTC]

Alrighty, somehow the tutorial images vanished, because they were working before.
Now everything looks good and replaced by copy-pastable text.
Hopefully that helps, as the images were the breakdown lol.

Do you know how to put html things in a journal?

I saw someone who had a countdown in there own journal but I cant remember who it was to ask them how they did it.

I cant save image url or anything it just gives me the html.

this is the site: countingdownto.com/countdown-w…

Alrighty, 
I found something that works. 
deviantART doesn't allow that style of countdown to work in the journal. 
However, gifcountdown.com/ site works. 

1. Make widget
2. Copy that link that shows right under the widget editor
3. Wrap it in g src="thelinkhere.com">

Worked for me, so I can help you if needed.

Astrikos In reply to TripplePoint [2014-07-30 21:11:41 +0000 UTC]

To link a deviant's icon all you need to do is go like :iconDeviant'sUsername:, 
so for you, I'd type in :icontripplepoint: and then that gives me !

If you want just a link, :devdeviant'susername:. 
So :devtripplepoint: -> TripplePoint

Actually, you don't need premium in order to add gifs to your profile (like in your ID, journals, etc..) First, copy the image's URL. Next, put and you should be good.

Do it like this: (without spaces)

25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyh… ">

Try it out.

KeyLimeCliche In reply to ??? [2014-05-31 04:31:24 +0000 UTC]

I finally found what I was looking for (linking images), however the part where it says:

"I take the image URL and paste it into this code format: 


x


In our example, this gives us the code:"

x

The code doesn't show up; is there any way you can send me the code through comments or a note? That would help a lot! Thanks!
I wanted to get this image:
keylimecliche.deviantart.com/a…

but link it to this:
keylimecliche.deviantart.com/a…

Would this be the correct code to use after all? And if so, can I resize the "thumb-link image (for lack of a better term)"?; I have a thumb with an appropriate size on my profile, and I would like to keep this size so that I can fit more thumb images.

Maybe I'm doing this wrong...but when I use that link, the image does come up, but it's big and it doesn't link to the page I want to link it to.
Am I missing a link/step?

Oh that deviant just put it in their deviantID, above their interests box! You can do that just by clicking edit deviantID and sticking the correct HTML in there!

I think you can edit your interests, and then just stick an  img html tag there. Try it and tell me what happens!

Sorry for late reply, I was away focusing on my classes. D:
