How do you post images in comments/threads?
TappedOut forum

I've seen some people post memes about MTG or altered cards in threads but I haven't been able to find out how. I imagine it's pretty simply but dragging images into the text box hasn't been working.
Don't forget to wrap the url in quotes. Here is an example you can copy/paste for reference:
<img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-grYGwvZH-Pk/UO9PUFWC5QI/AAAAAAAAI3g/w-xUXyARIyE/s1600/adventure_time_comic.jpg">
Which produces this:

Okay, thanks! So it wont just link the image it will actually post show the image? Well what the heck let me try right here...

Oh and a follow up question on images, say you have an image on your desktop, if there a way to get move it to a Tappedout comment?

that i don't know. i think it has to be hosted somewhere
November 25, 2013 6:04 p.m.
Makes sense. I could just upload a picture to facebook or something and then link it then, right?

Imgur.com has a handy little thing that has "HTML Image (websites / blogs)". Just copy paste that and it takes the brain out of it.

Anyway to have a mouseover image link? Like a card: Storm Crow , but with a custom image?

Not that I know of. You could probably pull some wizardry, but I generally advise against tinkering too heavily with HTML on this site.
Also, you can ask your question in a new thread next time.

Yeah, I came across this through Google. Thus, it's ancient.

copypasta, change colored bits. use at own risk:
<span class="card card-color-white-cost-2 card-color-blue card-type-creature card-color-black-cost-2 card-color-blue-cost-2 card-color-red-cost-2 card-color-green-cost-2"><a rel="popover" class="card-link card-hover" data-card-img="http://i.imgur.com/etjgJ2D.jpg">U WOT M8</a><span class="screen hide image-box"></span></span>

Ok, only works right for card sized images.
That's what I wanted anyway, but good to know.

So, does anyone have an explanation why the images work some of the times but not others? For instance on a deck description that I have, I have 4 image links, only 2 of which show up. And before you ask, I triple checked that they were done right

"And before you ask, I triple checked that they were done right"
I have to ask, does "done right" include making sure the website the image is from is still hosting it?

And I didn't check to see if there was a 2nd page. Derp
anyways, just send me a link of the page you are trying to do the coding on.

I'mma finish this coding project.
Someday.
here are all the users that I know of that have community created cards. If anyone wants to like, find some people with user created cards that isn't on this list that would be nice :D
Also, this list was made a while ago, so the cards may have disappeared. I'll have to find the player of the month awards and the other contest that was running again.

Is there a unspoken rule about mass tagging?
No?
Okay.

@sonnet666 well, no I guess I should do that, thanks =)
August 2, 2014 10:14 p.m.
OH that card. Yeah I made that myself, I was bored one day. .-.

@ corythackston: It's possible that the image's host has disabled image hotlinking. I would recommend re-uploading the images to a host like imgur.com and try again.
@ Femme_Fatale: nice work :)

I actually re-worked the code quite a lot. I've removed a lot of the useless junk that the old code uses and made it so that I can use bullets as well.
Basic cores of the New code and old code, new code has the div indent and bullet image list codes full though:
Old vs new, fully completed with indent and bullet image list codes.:

Femme_Fatale! Ha, wow. I forgot about that card. I am still playing 3 mimic vat decks all this time later.
I guess that card is about as truthful as I could ask for.

Is it VampireArmy or vampirelazarus that we are supposed to tag for necro bumps?

It's not the worst necro bump I've seen, but still.

@ThisIsBullshit: Where can I find the thread that was necroed 6 times?
