Re: How To Run a Game
When you create a game thread, you should try to use links instead of uploading a file if at all possible. If the map or mod you want to use has already been uploaded in another thread then link to that. Or if you have a personal webspace thru your ISP then consider uploading to there and linking to it. We should avoid cluttering up Shrapnels database with uploads that will be of no worth after the game is done. Im not saying dont do it at all. Just taht we should try to avoid it if its already available by link.
Find what you want to link to, then highlight the URL (address) your browser is showing. Copy that (by the edit menu in your browser or in windows you can hit Ctrl-C)
Then when you are in edit mode of your post, hit the button for "Go Advanced". That will give you access to a button on the top of the edit block that looks like a world with a couple chain links on it. That is for "Insert Link". Hit that and then paste in the address you copied (again using the edit menu of your browser, or in windows you can hit Ctrl-V)
