User talk:Red marquis

Hi. My name is Aldrich. I'm a Bureaucrat at Wikicars and have been working on creating various different templates and information boxes for the site. Unfortunately, though, my knowledge of wiki code is amateur at best so I need help from anyone. Thanks in advance to whomever come to my rescue.

Please feel free to contact me through email at: red_marquis86@yahoo.com

Eyecandy template
This does not belong in the Template namespace since it is outside of our project scope. I have moved the template to a sub-page of your userpage at User:Red marquis/Eyecandy and have updated your user page to go to the new location. To answer your questions about the image: consider using the CSS background-image property (via editing your wiki's MediaWiki:Common.css page to attach it to a class or id, since this property does not work inline), and then both of your issues would be solved. An example:

Have the following where you want the image to appear:, attaching whatever other styles you need there as well. Then, have the following in your MediaWiki:Common.css page:

Hope that helps. -- Skiz zerz  22:18, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
