File area
October 2008
I don't think that's available yet -- I think some folks use other services to host files, and then simply link to them in their Wiki. For example, DMaple (I think) uses yuntaa.com, which allows 1GB for free and more for paid accounts.

Creating and linking to new wiki pages
October 2008
You can do that. The key to adding pages to your Wiki (say, linked from your Main page), is to tell the Wiki the page already exists. Open up to edit your Wiki’s main page. Say you want to add links to “Inns,” “Ships” and “Rivers.” In your main …

New Campaign Homepage
October 2008
_Personally, I don’t see the point of a Home Page in the Adventure Log._ Things developed that way because the Adventure Log had been the default view when someone clicked on a campaign. To clarify my own position, I don't disagree with the deci…

New Campaign Homepage
October 2008
My apologies if this is just beating a dead horse at this point, here's another observation on the consequences of forcing the Wiki Main Page to be the default Home Page -- It was no problem for me to take the material that I _had_ set up to be t…

New Campaign Homepage
September 2008
I'm not philosophically opposed to a Home Page other than the Adventure Log, but forcing it to the Main Page of the Wiki seems ... well, redundant. After all, there's a tab for the Main Page of the Wiki that shows exactly the same thing. And unles…

Help
September 2008
Flatscan, I have to giggle at your statement that you looked to Weight of Rubies for ideas on linking topics and use of imagery. I did a view code on _your_ page to figure out how to position images in my posts. Which of us is the chicken and wh…

Custom Campaign Banners
September 2008
I've got no Mad Graphicks Skilz to speak of (I shamelessly steal code from other people to figure out how to put thiings up) but will gladly offer any useless advice or assistance to anyone.

FIXED - User Ratings - Miscalculation?
August 2008
_The Rating System seems to have bugged again – this time on A Deadly Affair._ _No big deal, as it doesn’t affect usability at all._ It does seem churlish to complain, but ... the bug either is still there or has reawakened. 29/6 is translating…

On image borrowing
August 2008
_Can I just link to any image on the web since I’m not selling anything, or is there something else I need to watch out for?_ I will start with the caveat that though I am a lawyer, I am not a copyright lawyer and am not terribly well-versed in e…

Multiple pages on Wiki Portion
August 2008
You can do that. The key to adding pages to your Wiki (say, linked from your Main page), is to tell the Wiki the page already exists. Okay, in layman's terms -- Open up to edit your Wiki's main page. Say you want to add links to "Inns," "Ships…

Player Log
August 2008
Your player should also be able to simply open the page with his/her character on it and have an option on the right hand side to "add" the character to a campaign -- as long as you have "invited" the player to the campaign, they should have the opt…

image size for maps
August 2008
If I recall correctly, any map displayed on OP is square in shape -- so if your image is rectangular, then it's going to look squished in from the sides. That happened to "mine.":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rubies/maps/show/442 I decided…

How do you run your game with the OP wiki?
July 2008
My "campaign":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rubies is on hiatus "in real time," as the members of our group rotate DMing/storytelling responsibilities every 3 or so months. In the interim, I've been doing short "interludes" on OP about thi…

Editing PCs
June 2008
Just speculating here -- have everyone check their own profile settings (i.e., click on their account name and choose to edit their own self-description) to see if anyone has checked the box for "use WYSIWIG editor." I think when that option was fi…

Is this possible?
June 2008
As a relative newcomer to the site, I'll throw my 2 cents in. I don't see any reason why you couldn't implement it. I think that for the site, the designation of GM makes a difference in only two respects. First, whoever carries the GM designation…

Hello Friends
May 2008
I am intrigued, and would like to subscribe to your newsletter... Where is your forum (where the gameplay will occur) located? Will you also be posting write-ups here? When you refer to "regular online interaction," does that mean IM/chat/IRC, …

Introducing Myself
April 2008
Heh. I was actually posting from work. However, he did just get a new MacBook Pro (Macbook? macBook?) _cue Bugs Bunny "Hansel? Hansel?" routine_ because he never gets any time on the MacBook. We have a couple of friends who are a dual-laptop cou…

First, second or third person?
April 2008
My log for "The Weight of Rubies":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/rubies is written in third-person mostly because it was imported from a running summary kept in Word. Each week, I would do a write-up of what happened, so that (a) I could gi…

Another recruit via twentysided tale
March 2008
I thought I should drop by and introduce myself -- I came here via Micah's and others comments on Shamus's Campaign Logs post on twentysidedtale. I got into table-top RPGs via my husband about 11 years ago; he has been playing since junior high, an…
