Francophone Wiki forum header (2009.04.25)

SUMMARY : This section was created because of this header. And, as you will conclude, it needs a revamp. I can come up with the text, but again, it'll involve the use of banners as in the previous section. I pinged a few users to help out with the wikimarkup...... let's see what develops.

Whilst on the subject of banners, I need you guys to take a look at this. The forum header is plain red, and I have ideas on images and text, but not on wikimarkup ! TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 15:52, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

What do you want in terms of wiki markup? Like, an image embedded in a div, or a table? Doc rocco 00:42, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm thinking of an image embedded in a div, like what we last worked on... (Even our forum headers have images embedded in divs) TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 03:13, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Err, wut? You claim you need help with wikimarkup, but to do what exactly? I can help with wikimarkup but there's nothing "wrong" with it so I've got nothing to fix, and I don't know what's wrong with it. To embed an image into a div: how?  シ Lion Heart ツ 13:57, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

(Rocco, explain... you were the one who created the idea. See User:Doc rocco/Sandbox - Rocco started this idea.) TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 14:00, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Wow, that's beautiful. The markups just the same. (Again, wow. I was going to do something like this for my talkbox but never did it in the end because it would hurt my head too much) --But the code can be re-used, develop an image, and change the pixel sizes to match the image sizes height and width, the indent size where the text starts. Though it will have to be aligned left for it to work, right Doc? User:ILHI/Sig 14:19, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Left ? o.O Okay. I'll give it a try. No : first I have to develop something. TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 14:22, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Okay, let's see how this goes (chances are that I might have to reposition the text) :

Vue d'ensemble

Okay, it isn't working. The text colour needs to be white and for some reason, it just doesn't change. Lemme try with 1024 pixels and see the difference in width : No, that was too big. I think I'll need a maximum of 800 pixels. I'll try reuploading.

Vue d'ensemble

Okay, it didn't work. ILHI, Rocco, anyone ! Help ! Please........

Let me try changing the text to white Iceboy 14:51, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Vue d'ensemble

It worked, ya? Iceboy 14:51, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

What about the one at 800 pixels (the second one) ? I think the width is better. TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 14:53, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Ok, let's try it on that one:

Vue d'ensemble

Hmm... why doesn't the text come in the middle? Iceboy 14:59, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

EDIT CONFLICT

Vue d'ensemble > [[Forum:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]

HOWEVER, you need to have extra space for the " > ****". There isn't enough space on there unless you modify the text. User:ILHI/Sig 14:58, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

DO NOT use 800px as it is hardly "low-resolution friendly". I use average size and it goes off the right margin. User:ILHI/Sig 14:59, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

HOLD ON. My current code WILL work in the template. User:ILHI/Sig 15:01, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

yeah... but just an idea of mine: having the text a bit bigger Iceboy 15:03, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Vue d'ensemble

OMG ! That's huge ! Then where do we put in the Pagename as ILHI tried putting in ? TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 15:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

To prove it works, look at the forumheader on the wiki, and the current way works fine - look at the subforums. Any other changes? User:ILHI/Sig 15:06, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

I'll take a look. EDIT : Wonderful ! Now, I'm trying to see what I can do for the Vue d'ensemble page. TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 15:09, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

EDIT : Thanks, guys ! Unbirth and I owe you big time. ^_^ TNE (Teste-moi, déteste-moi… !) 15:26, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
