*cracks knuckles*
OK, toying with some ideas today over on the O-portal. (For me, not for the site in general.)
What I'd like to do is set up a personal template for characters that creates an information box that looks like an ID card. The easiest method I can think of to accomplish this (and one I've used before, but with HTML, not MediaWiki) is to create a table with a background image.
So, the next question is whether or not MediaWiki actually allows this.
I put together a little experiment for myself
here. Now, while my wiki-fu may have improved greatly over the last couple of years, my CSS-jitsu still stinks - and my ability to combine the two isn't exactly what I'd venture so far as to even call subpar.
So, before I just give up and say, "Meh," does anyone else have any ideas either on how to make my original idea work or a different approach to get the same results?
