I've got an odd sort of request... Has to do with the website and the wiki
Posted: Apr 22, 2011 @ 10:40AM 3 replies

I'm working on a Siglerpedia (MediaWiki) page and want to reference quite a few of the junkies.  I'd like to have images of them if possible.  Their user icons would work great, if I could get to them a bit easier. 

Apparently, the wiki software doesn't have an option to display an image based on a URL. http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images ...  Would it be possible to take a bunch of image icons and import them into the image store for the wiki?  If it can't happen, I understand.  Just wanted to see if you had any ideas.

I'll give her a chance to point us in the right direction.

Bad Gmork...sorry I should have posted this earlier, Jam.

To link directly to a profile pic here on ss.com from the wiki you need to use the following format 

http://www.scottsigler.com/files/pictures/picture-760.jpg

Don't use any of the brackets you would normally use for url's or it will try to make it into a clickable link rather than a display of the picture.  Also as an FYI, doing the link to the pic this way has one small drawback...if a profile pic is deleted and left blank it will show as an empty box in the wiki.  It happens very infrequently.  Let me know if you need anything else and thanks for the contributions to the wiki!!
