Description
Sometimes people ask me: "How did you do that with the link?" or some other random HTML question. I try to answer using the code but it comes out weird because it's via comment and the code is already taking effect. Thus being ineffective.So I came up with this little piece to help teach some basics about HTML for deviantART and in general. It's a picture because Photoshop doesn't use HTML >w> I would've made this look nicer but I'm tired from today and ready to go to bed so I just added some random doodles.
Yes this is all correct because I do teach HTML in real life and I've learned it myself -.-
If you have any questions feel free to ask in the comments and I'll respond in the best way possible.
I may make another one to cover the PLZ accounts briefly and some other things dA has.
EDIT: I really do appreciate all the faves and downloads this has been getting! I never expected it to become so popular, I maybe expected like two or three faves from people I know in real life but of course there's no possible way I know every single person that has given this a fave! I have actually planned on making an updated version of this and the other two so it's a bit better? Not sure how to explain but it'll still be as simple as before! :3
In depth version. Where it can be used and how.

I know and understand most of this, but how do you show a group icon?
π: 0 β©: 1
PandaProjectile In reply to Wonder-Woof [2011-08-11 03:31:15 +0000 UTC]
A group icon? Since it's still an icon you'd also use the name of the group.
For example we'll just use my group. The group's name is: MyLittleRocker, if you want to show the icon you would use the same thing as for a regular deviant account. So ":" + "icon" + "MyLittleRokcer" + ":" =

Very nice tutorial Some people don't read the FAQ ever where the HTML info is so it's really helpful for many people. Good that you included the links code too, since many people don't know it, including me

PandaProjectile In reply to RayCrystal [2011-08-11 03:31:57 +0000 UTC]
You're welcome :3 I'll probably do live stream lessons that'll have more detail in it and MUCH better examples.

Si3art In reply to ??? [2011-08-10 15:05:22 +0000 UTC]
You kno... There already has been made a much completed version with the text format things AND with proper examples. [link]
But the link and icon things can be helpful for beginners.

PandaProjectile In reply to Si3art [2011-08-10 17:12:18 +0000 UTC]
This is basic stuff. I can have MUCH better examples than what you gave me if I did a live stream and actually taught it.

On an ID? Hm....I haven't tried it myself but I'll see what happens.

I don't know if it would work, but it would make my text look neater
