Talk:Sewerpipe

One last one, the new wye valley cc guide has sport background colour of pale orange. Do you think there is there a way of colouring behind the text with this programme, maybe a bit advanced, anway i will have a look into it.

Chris i like your idea of colour coding but there should be a grade suggestion for your colours so that single ability groups can make the best choice of venue for themselves.

There is an awful lot of white space, I noticed this on a couple I did. I also changed the path because it was unreachable from the contents page.

I COULDN'T MAKE OUT WHERE SEA AND LAND WERE (CAPSoff) maybe a touch of shading or waves or the words 'land' and 'sea'. North arrow would be really helpful to work out sun/shade/location.

'Two Arretes' should be 'Two Aretes'. If you want to be clever you can put a circumflex over the first 'e' . --Tim Hoddy 16:52, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Blank Lines

Chris. Please don't use blank lines to locate pictures next to text. It doesn't work and is dependant on at what resolution the viewer is running his monitor. You can see this if you resize your browser. --Tim Hoddy 23:33, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Hmmm, yes i see this problem. How do we get around placement of pictures against specific lines of text for all resolutions?--Alan rosier 15:58, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Using the Discussion Pages

Chris and Alan... I think it's good that you are using the discussion pages to discuss improvements, etc... However! I think it's important (for clarity at least) that you add comments at the bottom and then sign and date each one. You can sign and date your comments with the little icon two icons from the right. --Tim Hoddy 09:56, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Also Chris. Your photos are small. Whilst this is ok when displayed on the wiki page, your original should be uploaded ata a decebt size. This gives users the option of downloading a larger one of they wish. The wiki markup will resize the photo to whatever you wish. --Tim Hoddy 10:00, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Both for the ideas All good. Tim - how do I locate pictures to text apart from having everything on the left any ideas?

Cant find the two icons for signing and dating??

You see the collection of icons at the top when you are in edit mode? It's the one second from the right.

Regarding location of text and pictures, I see that it's a problem. It's well worth studying the wiki markup in more detail. Try [1] and [2]. The second link also contains lots of useful links. --Tim Hoddy 13:27, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Aha! I see it now --Alan rosier 14:36, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Poem Extension

Take the narrow path down the sewerpipe
Just let pedestrians shake their heads
they do not know the way to heaven!
Wave wound pebbles grind
the lion's foot,
he watches december's sun
arc the ocean sky
I touch the rock strangely warmed
hook, pull, crimp,
a microclimate warms my soul

Video

Chris, you may not be aware but there is a way to embed video (youtube videos) on wiki pages; see here... Video_test. If it's what you want to do look at the markup of that page. --Tim Hoddy 09:40, 26 November 2012 (GMT)

Hi Tim. I'm afraid it doesn't work on my apple with firefox browser.--Chris Wyatt 21:30, 4 December 2012 (GMT)

I can do it for you if you wish. --Tim Hoddy 22:47, 4 December 2012 (GMT)

Yes please Tim.--Chris Wyatt 23:46, 16 December 2012 (GMT)

Chris, do you have the URLs for the Red Roof problems ? --Tim Hoddy 09:16, 17 December 2012 (GMT)

I found one of 'em. --Tim Hoddy 09:44, 17 December 2012 (GMT)
