Practice html found on this page, or any other, using an off-site practice board like at zoicks or w3schools.
However, as SE often adds personalized variables to code,
notably unexpected
<br>s which can break strings, a final check could be
sending yourself a private message by replacing my 27543
account number with your own here.
For further
convenience, paste the following code into your profile, again
replacing my with your own account number or name, so a direct link is always handy:
Send
<a
href="http://sensibleerection.com/messages.php?action=new&receiver_id=">me</a>
a
private message.
Replace the with the image's web address. Be
sure to close quotes or it screws up the whole page. To avoid broken images, don't hotlink but host your own: Photobucket
is preferred with user-friendly galleries and in-browser editing/resizing even after posting, Imageshack
offers quick public hosting without any account at all, imgur.com hosts porn. All three upload from
both saved file and web. Use JPG and PNG for photos/art, and GIF for text/animation. Keep images to a reasonable size as large files drag modems and
overfill the screen, aiming for under ~300KB (1MB for animation), or 480h x 680w pixels.
~ Always add http:// within
the "quotes" inside the <inequality signs>.
~ Whatever
is inside the quotes is where the reader is sent, so be
absolutely sure to close quotes.
~ Everything inside the carrots is hidden from the reader as html code.
~ Nothing outside the carrots affects code, so write whatever you want
there.

DROP-DOWN Spoiler Menus When you wish to give the option of viewing your comment, whether it is an extra large image, auto-play media, movie/game spoiler, wall-of-text or whatever, it can be placed in a hidden box with opening button using one of these adjustable codes, replacing the XXXXX with whatever html or text is to be hidden:
When an SE user
forgets to close quotes (the
blinking quotation above, for example) within
a comment, it screws up the entire post. To fix, open Internet
Explorer (not Firefox), login to SE, and find the comment with the broken
link. Save the broken reply page as 'html only' to your
desktop. Open that saved file in wordpad or notepad, then correct the broken code. Next, directly after the <head> tag at
the top, add:
...but
replacing this http:// address with that of the broken
comment.
Save the fixed file.
Open this fixed file on your desktop with your standard
browser. In the
now usable comment box, add
">">">">">"> and
then whatever witty banter. Submit. This should fix
open tags/quotes for most browsers. Thanks to eIfish for this tip.
THEMES to Bulk Tweak SE's Layout, Add Features SE_Butler is Naruki's "multipurpose script intended for Opera browsers (but also works with Firefox+GM). It works on SE post pages, making mod/reply stuff a lot easier, and allowing you to focus on new comments if you like."
Sensiblefacial from Rojo^ is a Firefox alternative which also adds features such as nesting comment trees, adding color, and mod flexibility.
FILTER
Member Comments To reduce to invisible all comments from select SE members who subtract from your SE experience, first install Greasemonkey
for Firefox.
Then install secommentfilter.user.js
and edit the default examples list. You will be unable to read or mod their comments unless clicked on to open.
A step further is foobar's SEkillfile which removes entirely the target users' comments, along with all replies threaded to that comment. Also works with Chrome.
EXTENDED
embeds and hotlinks In the extended of SE posts proper (NOT IN COMMENTS), urls are automatically linkified to aid in massive porn dumps. To embed images and videos in the post extended (NOT IN COMMENTS), use normal html such as provided by the host (youtube,
photobucket, dailymotion, etc) or written on this page and remove every http: so each address begins instead with Do a ctrl F on http: to help ensure they've all been nabbed before posting your edit.
AUDIO
embedding Embedding audio to SE is
probably best using flash-based MP3 Reader, where one would only need to use this code, replacing XXXXX with the mp3's online URL address:
Another option would be to simple link directly to the file, allowing people to do with it as they wish.
FONT
used by SE The font used for SE's logo is called Loki Cola and may be downloaded from urbanfonts or directly from my website. On Windows 7 or XP, just drop the ttf file into your fonts folder to install (C:) > WINDOWS > Fonts
