I just wrote this article in one sitting. If anyone decides to read it, can you give me some feedback.

Also, I put a question in the page text, but I'll post it again here: Does anyone know a simple way to align text up with a picture?

I had to do a 'press enter repeatedly' method on that page. It worked, but I'm sure there are neater ways to go about doing it.

Oh, and in a day or two I'll be adding a link to this page on the Tutorials page. I don't want to make this page public before I get some feedback. -blobbyblob 16:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

What about using a table? --Blocco|Userpage-Talkpage 17:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Take a look at the Coinstar Tutorial page, that one I used an invisible table to set it up. Use the same formatting and it should work fine. Try to avoid putting things in thumbnails like that, if you do [[Image:Blah.png|XXXpx]] that will set the max width of the image. ---18:30, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
I believe that if you try to use an imagemap, like I think MrDoom did, it will be easier. --Mattchewy 03:34, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
That's not quite an image map, those work a little differently. Just take a look at the Coinstar tutorial page to get an idea on how to format it. Google/ask about anything you don't recognize.

Building or Misc Tutorial?

Should this be categorized as a Building Tutorial or a Miscellaneous tutorial?

Building. Easy. ---Mr Doom Bringer 06:38, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
