Hello! Newly sorted Ravenclaw here. I am awfully lost when it comes to the entire registration process and have no idea how to get registered in Index. I believe I need to wait..? Again, terribly sorry as I have no idea what I'm doing.
I heard about a Mentor program but immediately lost the page. I also know you need to have an ency or something of the sort but I can't seem to find mine or if I even have one.

Hello Irene! I will send you my welcome owl, and it includes links to the very helpful mentor system. Just give me a moment, and it will be headed your way!

Ah, thank you! People seem to have very fast reply speeds here.

Hehe some days I’m speedy and others I’m slow- depends on my wifi and cell service!

Hello Irene!!!! Welcome to the site and to Ravenclaw!!
Here is a bunch of helpful things, all in one welcome letter. It is made by Noah Jupe (who is now another character- Clark W B Carter) - one of the nicest people on the site. Kim Sato is also an amazing person, as is Colin, and they are all pretty active.
The OOC Let’s Chat is a great spot to get posts up and to make friends!!
If you have any questions feel free to owl me, Kim, Colin, or Clark!! I love helping people and helping to answer their questions! And Colin has also volunteered to help if you ever need it and I’m not answering my owls! Another place which I highly recommend for help is the Mentor system. If you are not sure you should sign up, you can read more about the system Here!
Also, if you ever need someone to thread with, shoot me an owl! I am always open and very rarely turn someone down for a thread!
One note on threads and RPG’s, all IC- there is a 200 word minimum for each post. And for most OOC threads and forums, there is a rule against double posting. OOC means Out of character, and IC means in character- I figured I’d clarify.

Much love,

Bailey Glade

Ps. I included Edward, he also a great person to RP with, or just to chat with!

@Kim Sato @Edward Edwards @Clark William Baird-Carter and @Colin McCoire we’re included in the owl- my unofficial welcoming committee!

Okay, super random and also really stupid question, but is there any way to make a image smaller? I found a REALLY nice picture but am struggling with getting it any smaller than it already is..

You can crop and edit pictures on your files. Have you tried that already?

I can't promise that it'll resize everything. I know I use it when a image is bigger than I expected

If you want to add it in your ency or post, what you can do is use table and use invisible lines. For example :

Reducio

code :

Code: Select all

[table]
[tr]
[td][/td]
[td][img]/images/upload/cgd17u.webp[/img][/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

when you add invisible lines it'll be like this
code :

Code: Select all

[table]
[tr]
[td][color=transparent]────────────────────────────────[/color][/td]
[td][img]/images/upload/cgd17u.webp[/img][/td]
[/tr]
[/table]

────────────────────────────────

Adding to what the others said, as a last resort you could try the resize function on ezgif - you do lose a bit of quality but if nothing else is working or if you want to keep the BBcode in your post simple it can be a good option
