[edit] Introduction

Creating an online gallery is a fantastic way to share your art with others.

[edit] Creating your artist Page

This part is simple. Just use your user name, an underscore, and "Gallery". If your user name is "Fred" you would use "Fred_Gallery" at the URL http://ravenholdt.kaaosa.com/wiki/Fred_Gallery Pretty simple, right?

Once you're at your page, it's simply a matter of using the template to get yourself started.

[edit] The Template

Note: Simply copy and paste the following into your gallery page.

== About the Artist ==

The Artist Information goes here.


== Artwork Gallery ==

<gallery>
Image:example.jpg|Image Text
Image:example.jpg|Image Text
Image:example.jpg|Image Text
Image:example.jpg|Image Text
Image:example.jpg|Image Text
Image:example.jpg|Image Text

</gallery>

[[Category:Artist]]

If you use the gallery tags given above, your artwork will automatically be resized into clickable thumbnails with captions underneath. They stack in rows of 4. Copy and paste "Image:example.jpg|Image Text" as many times as you need to.

To use an image, you first have to upload it. After you have finished uploading the image you will be able to use the wiki to link to it. If you uploaded an image called "Fred.jpg" you would change Image:Example.jpg|Image Text to Image:Fred.jpg|This is a picture I drew of Fred.
