User talk:J E T

So, as folks can likely see, I am still in the very early stages of building my user pages. My main user page only has basic info on my primary character, while I work on creating something completely different which will provide info on all 10 of my characters. I have been trying to learn the Wiki formatting, and have been slowly figuring out how to make separate tab pages (as shown on User:Miss_Sarah_Lauren and User:Ereanor). I have been doing my best to create small image buttons for my characters, showing their name and profession. Although I was trying to make the images into direct links, the only way I was able to make it work was to have the image do a redirect to the page I wanted it to point to. The only image I presently have which links in this manner is:  (the presently blank page which will eventually be devoted to my Assassin). Of course, if someone knows of a way to use an image as a link without having to use a redirect, please let me know. :-) --JET 07:57, March 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * The best method is to not use an image at all, especially when most of that image is text. You can mostly reproduce that with a bit of CSS formatting:


 * It's not exactly what you had, but it is by far the preferred way to do things. If you're not familiar with CSS, here is a very good reference on it.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 15:02, March 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * ^ fair point. But there is also  [[Image:Ace_Raptorslayer_Tab_Button|link=User:J E T/Ace]] .  Some actually prefer the redirect method, though, as it automatically provides a link back to the image.  While linking to redirects is usually frowned on, it's generally considered okay to do so with images.  Nwash  [[Image:User-Nwash-Eyes.png]] 15:17, March 4, 2010 (UTC)
