Glow
Is there a glow-like background in html, like this a bit

"Hello World!" "Hello World!"

this is close but I want what it looks like behind the box something like this (just the "Ohaidere" part)

"Hello World!" Ohaidere

"Hello World!" Ohaidere

I cheated by moving the "Hello World!"'s background to the right. Can anyone help? 02:16, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

I've added -webkit-box-shadow and now I see it. Unfortunately the only way I know of achieving a similar effect is to use a div with gradients. (Not the gradient class.) I'll give you an example later. 17:00, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * -moz-box-shadow only works in Firefox. Use the standard box-shadow also. 01:28, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * IE can suck it imo. 01:41, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * IE doesn't support box-shadow... 01:42, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, firefox doesn't and IE doesn't (IE can still suck it all the same), then what does? 01:49, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * WebKit browsers. Safari and Chrome. 01:50, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * But there's " " ... 01:55, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * -webkit-box-shadow is deprecated. 01:55, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fine, still means IE does none. But more to the whole point, can you help? 02:00, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * * facepalm* I'm a complete idiot. box-shadow isn't supported in WebKit browsers. Uh, how many cookies do I owe you?

External Sponsor Links
I'm not sure exactly how these work (signing up, vetting by Wikia, etc.), but I just visited Seaweed net without being logged on and got:
 * WoW Paladin Secrets
 * Want to reach level 80 fast? Check out this paladin guide for proven leveling strategies. The guide features quest walkthroughs and leveling locations, as well as top of the line build and equipment advice. Get your paladin guide now and start speed-leveling today!

I know anyone can click the Sponsor this page link and say they want to spend $5/month or $49/year and give their email address. What advertisers and Wikia does after that is a mystery I'm not willing to spend $5 to find out, but apparently there isn't much vetting involved. I know there were lots of discussions a while ago over what ads (Google, DoubleClick, or whatever) Wikia should and should not display on this wiki. Those folks here regularly in contact with Wikia staff get to handle this, I know, but do the admins of this wiki have a way to veto ads before they show up, or is there just going to be a flood of new questionable ads that have to be policed page by page? ('cuz that seems like it would be a real pain ...) -- 05:24, September 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I saw it too =O Sist em X  19:51, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * "do the admins of this wiki have a way to veto ads before they show up(?)", there isn't much they can do other than talk to wikia staff. "is there just going to be a flood of new questionable ads that have to be policed page by page?" probably...  20:00, September 20, 2010 (UTC)

A Question
How does one make an image from photobucket a link to a wiki page, specifically in a signature? Thank you. 01:32, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just use the URL with no []. However MediaWiki does not support resizing images imported from other sites. So if that's your real question, it has to be the right size on the other site. -- 07:46, September 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, you can use this template. It allows a degree of control over external images, including the size. 09:21, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Tricky, but really the template generates HTML to get the user's browser to resize the image. Mediawiki still just passes the URL along unmolested. -- 14:42, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

Wanted Categories - Languages
For some reason templates located here as well as any tranclusions of them, are showing up with non-existent categories named "Swedish Users", "Finnish Users", etc. I cannot find why they cause this to happen, and AWB just skips them. If someone could fix this, please do. Thanks, 07:16, September 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * Never mind, I found a use for them. 06:48, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, no I haven't. I was confused with another project I'm working on. Can someone remove these categories? 08:00, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * What page has these? And did you try purging it? 08:05, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * They can be found here, all categories listed except for blog posts (which still haven't been dealt with). Yes, I have, multiple times. 08:07, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok... wikia's server need to clear their cache for pages... which will eventually happen, until then you have 2 choices:
 * Edit every page in the categories, just changing it a little bit (even removing a single space) just so the page different or edit and undo that edit, either which will remove the page from the category page.
 * Ignore it; waiting for them to clear the cache.

AWB issues
Hey there, I'm trying to edit in AWB with my AWB account, User:M2602Bot. Though every time I hit the start button I get told I have new messages. I have purged the bot's talk and checked the page for new messages like 7 times, and it's still not letting my continue. Can anyone help? 06:39, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * There should be a place in settings to not have it stop you if you get messages...not sure about that, but I could of sworn I found it a while back.  06:40, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * You have to log in on the wiki as the bot, click the "new message" thing, then you are good to go (log out and log in as Matthew2602 if you want). 06:46, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think it was caused by that annoying IP who added those Shutdown thingys. yey! my "Bot overheated" template got used! 06:48, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) (Second edit conflict) Oh ok, thanks! He hasn't posted shutdown things on mine... 06:50, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have now! mwhahah  07:00, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
