Useful codes and tips

All right, a lot of people are having issues in regard on how to use LJ codes and HTML codes. So I shall tell you!





§ LJ Codes

<lj user="journalname">     LJ username tag. Will display something like this: [info]thefaerieknight

Okay, before I give you the tag for the LJ-cut, let me quickly explain what it does. If you have a really long entry, the LJ cut will "hide" all the text between its tag and in the main journal will display a sort of link that a user can click to reveal the rest of the entry. To make sure you did the cut correctly, view your journal, not the entry. If you just view the entry, it will show all the information regardless of the cut.

<lj-cut text="Text for cut, can be anything you want">
Your entry will be here.
</lj-cut>

It is IMPORTANT that you have both tags, the one before the part you are cutting, the end tag which goes after the text that you are cutting. If you look at any of the entries in this journal you'll see a few of them use the lj cut. They are not links. Well they in a sense, but not HTML links.


§ HTML Codes

Very basic stuff here. You must have the end tag or the code effect will continue until it hits an end tag or the end of the entry, which can suck.

<b>text</b>     This will make the text bolded.
<i>text</i>     This will make the text italicized.
<u>text</u>     This will make the text underlined.
<strike>text</strike>     This will make the text have a strike through it.

<font size="1">text</font>     This will make the text small.
<font size="3">text</font>     This will make the text large.
<font color="red">text</font>     This will make the text change color depending on the color you use. You can also use the hexidecimal codes.

You can use any number from 1 through pretty much infinity though after a certain number the size of the text will stop increasing. The small the number, the smaller the size. Larger the number, larger the size.

<a href="url">Link name</a>     Creates a link.
<a href="url" target="_blank">Link name</a>     Creates a link that will open the page in a new window or tab, depending on the browser settings.

<img src="url">     Display an image.

If you want to know how to make the special characters like ♥, visit this page~ I usually use the numpad (Alt+#) and for the heart it's Alt+3. Whatever suits your fancy~

-----------------

There are plenty of other codes, but these are pretty much the most important and basic ones. Hope this helps!

Setting Up Your LJ

>_> I had already made a note to do this in case there were people who were still new to LJ or RPing through LJ...and looks I really need to do it. So here we go! Crash course on working with LJ, from the setup, to how to make a post, and how to make a reply. I'm not going to go into every detail, but I'm hitting the important points. Once you feel comfortable I encourage you to explore the features, though, so you can get a better understanding of things.

Once accepted, if possible please fill in the following form and post it in your character journals. If you are unable to post them in the character journal, you can use your main journal instead.

Some of this information will mirror things asked for the application form. This is just to allow you to go into more in depth description about your character. Feel free to create more in depth essays and use this as a gloss instead if the information becomes to long for your taste.

Comment with a link to the entry here when finished.

[Age] Rough estimate, can give human year equivalents.

[Pairing Preference] Optional. If the character is already in one just mention that. Otherwise just say if they have any preference for canon or original characters or not.

[Eye Color]
[Hair Color]
[Height]
[Weight]
[Other] Any other significant physical features, like missing an eye or something.
