Hello everyone, this post is to help users get better use out of the card making forums that is the mtgcardsmith. If you have a issue, feel free to use the guides posted below to help yourself when needed.

My only request is that you don't comment on this thread directly, so we can keep it jam packed with useful information. Now that myself have said the disclaimer, feel free to continue reading! :)

Part 1, posting links to comments:
To post links to comments, click on the time stamp for the comment and it will bring you to the spot for that given comment. Then you can copy the address of the web page you are on and paste it where you want it.

This is especially useful when trying to direct a cardsmith or viewer of the site to a specific part of this tutorial, when needed.

    Part 3, Posting Not Linked Images:

    "Slight interruption but if you want your cards in posts to be reachable, make sure to post the linked image or just the link to the card's page. Thank you for listening, feel free to continue reading!"

    How to post not linked images: (For use with normal pictures!)

    To post not linked images do the following...

    <img src="Image Address" />

    For example... if myself post the following link into the part where it says "Image Address" while leaving the quotations in place, it will result in the picture posted after it.

    Image Address: https://i.imgur.com/J03PXlN.png

    image

    or for resizing pictures use the following...

    <img src="Image Address" width="Image Width"/>

    For example... if myself post 35% into the part where it says "Image Width" alongside the aforementioned step, while leaving the quotations in place, it will result in the picture posted below.

    The percentage put in, scales the image based on the width of the screen space.
