Images

You can put inline images into your text easily and quickly, with the [img] tag. There is also a thumbnail tag [thumb] which will show (and cache) a thumbnail of an image. If the tag is given a URL as a parameter as well as the main URL, then that will be used as the thumbnail.

Security

Long text which isn't naturally breakable into lines is forced into pieces.

JavaScript script tags, onX handlers and URLs will all be filtered/blocked. Don't use them unless you want the staff to be alerted to a suspected hacking attempt!

Attachments

You can use attachments with a number of different comcode forms. The attachment tags are automatically inserted into your Comcode when you choose an attachment, and you may re-arrange them to move the attachments around; you may also wish to change the width, height, description, or set the type to 'download'. After adding your attachments you may re-use them in other pieces of comcode, and the attachment will exist until all references are deleted.

Attachments may be movies, flash animations, audio, images or general downloads. The website automatically decides how to treat your attachment.

Users may add attachments according to their quota, and re-use other people's attachments according to privileges.
