Newbie Magazine: Questions from RPS!

10 years ago

Ugh. Why me? I hate the first pages; they're so boring and blank and bleak. Blurgh. Can someone please help me out here? I mean, nobody insult me. I'm still new at this kind of stuff and I would like it if someone was actually nice to me.

First of all, what exactly are you going on about? I know it's a story or something, but I only got that from your comment about your pages.

My pages from what? Can you please answer me here, or are you here to make me mad/annoyed?

Fazz doesn't intentionally insult people. Both he and I are confused as to what you are talking about. Could you please elaborate?

Please calm down. I am genuinely offering my assistance.

"I hate the first pages; they're so boring and blank and bleak."

That single sentence is the only way I deduced you were talking about a story. Everything else - "Newbie magazine" and "RPS" went past me. Therefore I am asking you to reiterate what you are saying.

Thank you for explaining to me, you two. I thank you. 

 

I am asking if I can make something on the first page of a story game that doesn't just look like someone typed it on a computer. Can I make a title page or something? Please help me out.

That doesn't make any sense to me. You are typing on a computer - are you referring to your typing style? The words themselves? The appearance of the page?

Actually, I am typing from mobile; but back on topic. 

 

I mean like the appearance of the title page. Why not make it like a book's cover or.....something?

So a mobile device isn't a computer? Lol :p

I don't see the point of a title page... but you can do something with the description. You can spiffy it up, or even upload a handwritten title page to it.

Possibilities:

Create a picture that has the writing on it and upload it onto the site. Then copy/paste this, with rich text editor turned off, onto the page while substituting the Insert url with the url of the picture you just uploaded. Keep the (') things on though.

<html><style>body{background: url('Insert url') fixed 50% / cover;}</style></html>

Or you could take that same exact thing and use it as a decoration in the background while just typing up regularly on the page.

I have used it for both possibilities. Though you may want to delete the title of the page if you are going to use the first option.

Perhaps I'll make an article telling people how to do it now a days then xD

Maybe when I have free time I'll go through the ins and outs of coding backgrounds, graphics, and images to make things around the site (not just in games) aesthetically pleasing.

I believe that the html coding I put up there should work. It has for me so far.
