That wording, TheMaster99, is exactly how we wanted to word it ourselves.

by the way, [@Mahz]... Will you bring back the [code][img=url][/code] code for images, or will people have to stick to [code][img]url[/img][/code]? There are a few places we've come across with pre-newguild entries breaking code because of using the old and shortform image code.

EDIT: Noticed a funny thing about the code brackets now... they add a space after. If you see the question mark above, in the raw code there's no space between that and the ]

EDIT#2: Someone informed us that using images as link objects doesn't seem to work. not verified completely, but initial test confirmed that.

I removed the sweet [code][img=...][/code] shorthand because the BBCode parser was treating it like an img tag with no closing tag.

But now that my hacked parser has matured, I think I can implement the shorthand form by processing the shorthand tags into images before feeding the markup into the parser. When re-writing the Guild early this year, I was reluctant to reintroduce BBCode that broke the BBCode "specification" of open/close tags, but now I regularly break the spec and I'm comfortable with my custom parser. See: [code]hr[/code] and [code][@Mahz][/code].

The [code][code][/code] tag isn't adding spaces but rather it just pads the content with a few pixels.

It makes more sense when you realize the code tag used to look like this: [img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/spa/quq37nq1583x0lf/osefg_yr.png[/img] (Notice the pink background)

But I modified it to have a transparent background which makes the padding seem redundant. I may experiment with some different backgrounds, so I'll keep the padding in for now.

Finally, it is possible to link images:

[url=http://example.com][img]http://www.roleplayerguild.com/ratings/like.png[/img][/url] ← should be a linked image

Finally, I still haven't caught up in this thread since I'm too easily distracted. :lol I need to devote my limited time to finishing the search feature prototype.
