Help!!

How do I code html for my character in the rooms??.

If you don't want to learn to code, you can check out the RPO Code Generator to get started, otherwise read on.

The interface of the chat room itself can be confusing to those who are not familiar with it. Many of us that have been around for quite a long time take this for granted. We are hoping to draw in people who have never chatted in this manner before to our site, so I thought this might be a good idea to include with the HTML tut?

Basic Html Code Templates.

Following are some basic templates that you can use to enter a room with basic html tags. Feel free to use them, and the commands and information listed below, to help you create tags for yourself or your character in Roleplay Oasis rooms.

To use any of these templates…

1) Copy and paste the template into a notepad (or other word processing program).

2) Insert your information for the portions that are all capitalized.

3) Copy and paste the customized code and use it where you would input your name to enter a room.

Template without an avatar Code:
<center>CHARACTER NAME HERE TYPE OF CHARACTER ROOM NAME

Example:
<center>Nina Richards Alpha Wereleopard Favorite LKH Room

What it would look like in a room:
CHARACTER NAME HERE
TYPE OF CHARACTER
ROOM NAME

Template with an avatar Code: :
<center><img src=IMAGE LINK HERE> CHARACTER NAME HERE TYPE OF CHARACTER ROOM NAME

Example:
<center><img src= http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd83/darkeyesavs/nina/nina1.jpg> Nina Richards Alpha Wereleopard Favorite LKH Room 

What this code will look like inside the room.

Nina Richards
Alpha Wereleopard
Favorite LKH Room

Template with an avatar and a specific color

Code:
<center><img src=IMAGE LINK HERE> CHARACTER NAME HERE TYPE OF CHARACTER ROOM NAME

Example:
<center><img src= http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/dd83/darkeyesavs/nina/nina1.jpg> Nina Richards Alpha Wereleopard Favorite LKH Room

What it would look like in a room:

Nina Richards
Alpha Wereleopard
Favorite LKH Room

Html commands are coded within the angled brackets. The codes that you see in the examples are “start” commands. This means that they tell something to start happening at that point. It will continue to do whatever that command is until you tell it to “stop”. The way to tell it to stop is to use the same command inside the angled brackets with a “/” in front of it. For instance, if you wanted to italicize the character’s name in the tags used as an example above, it would look like this:

(The command to italicize is so the stop command for it would be.)

Other common html commands used in tag coding:

bold 
 line break (has no stop command)
 italicize
<center> center text</center>
 changes font size (3 is standard so 2 would make it smaller and 4 or 5 would make it larger)
 changes font color
