[edit] Using Show Preview
Hello, and thanks for contributing to the HRWiki. I want to point out the Show Preview button. It's right next to the Save Page button when you edit. You should use it whenever you are making a lot of experimental edits, for example when you are trying to get formatting right. Using the Show Preview button is quicker and easier than saving and clicking "edit" again, and will keep recent changes and page histories from being flooded. Thanks. --DorianGray
[edit] Interwiki linking
To link to Wikipedia just type [[Wikipedia:the name of the article you want to link to|]] The same thing applies to pages on the official Homestar Runner site: just replace "Wikipedia:" with "HR:". — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 04:11, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Changing the Font Size
Haggarduser has a question: How I change font size?
- I see you found Help:Editing - great! To change the font-size, use a span with CSS. Hit edit to see what I did. "large" can be replaced with a lot of stuff. - Qermaq - (T/C)

Thanks!
Another question though, how do I center my vertical alignment in a table? By the way, sorry for all the formatting errors, I'm new to wiki.
- Before I show you that, let's start with the basics. Four ~'s after your talk post makes a signature. Always do that. Ok, now vertical alignment in a table. You know how between rows you need a |- ? Well, instead, use |- valign="center" . (You can use "top" or "bottom" too.) To "really" learn it all, you need to know HTML tables. (I thought Wiki code automatically centered vertically, well, what do I know?) (and here's the 4x~) - Qermaq - (T/C) 05:20, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Qermaq, you may be right about wiki auto centering text in a table, all I want is to have THE MAN in my userbox on the same alignment as the I AM. See how THE MAN is slightly above I AM? If anyone could fix that it'd be great. By the way, great user page, Qermaq. Haggarduser 05:25, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
