Is there any way to make a picture a link? I have a funny feeling the answer is no, but I thought I would ask.

I just hate that ugly blue underline colour. It drives me nuts!

    Thank you guys. I'm a little embarrassed to have a work-in-progress on here. But, your kind words make me feel good for what I have so far.

    Side note: Anyone else getting an HTTP error when they are trying to upload images. I just started geting that now.

    Not today; it's happened to me a few times, but it's always been transient. And, agreed, you have some nice looking graphics there.

    I've heard of others who have had similar problems. I'm not sure why some people seem to have this problem, but if the problem persists you can always upload your pics to a media hosting site such as Photobucket and then just copy the HTML code for the pics to your OP site. I've been doing this with some of my larger images and it has worked well for me.

    It's cool now. The problem fixed itself. I'm guessing it did so by some sort of dark magic.

    I'll have to try that photobucket trick next time things crap out. Thanks!

    Almost my whole wiki is photobucket linked. The only things uploaded are the character pics and a few maps.

    Ok I see the part about setting a picture to to be a link. The question I have is what about giving the picture a title as well. I cannot get the code quite right.

    Giving the picture a title/mouseover requires hopping into HTML. It's not too messy, but it can be annoying at times.

    OK I lied. There's an easy way to do it with Textile, I guess.

    The (Note) part gives you the mouseover text.

    Ah yes... but when will be able to have the mouseover display a popup image? Now that would be handy.
