I can do the resizing... but our favicon should be simpler than our logo.
EDIT: I've removed the Halo Demo Mods Gallery. We can use the MGM Diner Gallery for all images that we don't want to directly upload to the Wiki. With the Wiki, we can upload any images and files; I've allowed several image file format extensions and the .zip extension for our mods and other non-image files. MPG and MP3s are also being allowed, but what format will we use for our movies (if we decide to put movies up there).

MPG is a movie format, and we could also use youtube.

Yeah, I'd prefer that we used YouTube so that we don't take up space with the movies at HDM. I don't mean to overplay this idea of a lack of space available (50 Gigs), but we should definitely plan for a huge number of mod files and images to be uploaded. If we ever run out of space, I'll be able to buy some more.

EDIT: The poll here showed that 5/7 people wanted the 150MB upload limit (enough for the largest modding pack), and only 2/7 wanted the upload limit that would allow for one mod with included bitmaps. So I've configured the server to allow file uploads at up to 150 MB. I can change this limit later on, if desired.

http://halodemomods.com/mediawiki/index ... Mods:Logos <<<< Logos page
http://halodemomods.com/mediawiki/index ... :Tutorials <<<< Tutorials page

Subdomains are available to MGM members (anyone, really), so reply here if you want one. For example, "monoman.halodemomods.com" would link to a web page and private directory where Monoman could upload stuff. Alternatively, it could link directly to the Wiki article about Monoman, where he'd be able to upload files up to 150 MB and create a user page in the Wiki.

To apply for a subdomain, do the following:
1. Register your username at the HDM Wiki.
2. Log into the Wiki, then click on your username at the top and put something on your user page.
2. Reply here and tell me what subdomain name you want. Then tell me if you want the subdomain to point to your Wiki userpage or to a separate web directory. I can change where the subdomain points, in case your change your mind.

Congrats, Xenoku...

When you upload a mod, please use the following structure:
http://halodemomods.com/mediawiki/index ... -03-08.zip

I'll post a template once I figure out how to do that, so then you can just fill in the mod template. But for now, notice that it has the following headings:
-Description
-Requirements
-Features
-To Do List
-Player Comments

I'm not sure how to add a rating, but at least you can see how many times the page has been viewed at the bottom.

EDIT: I'm requesting that we all directly contribute to these topics. We can start by actually making pages with these names:
* Mod Database (the actual list of all our mods - we'll use headings for each author, sorted alphabetically)
* CSS (definition, criteria, and list of CSS mods)

Also, if you have a tutorial, post it in a page and add [[Category:Tutorials]] at the bottom, so it gets grouped in our tutorials category.

Yeah, we each automatically get a user page after registering. Once you log in, you'll see your name in red at the top. If you click on your name, you'll be able to edit your user page. Linking to a user is done with [[User:Moxus]], for example.

Note: please see my edit 2 posts back.

If the only thing everyone knows how to do is copy and pasting, the graphic world is doomed.

Btw, Sparky, is it me or is the logo not rotating?

nil.halodemomods.com and point to my Wiki userpage
Thanks. ;D

50 GB of space seems plenty, 150 MB file uploads seem plenty too, and this just has to be better than edgefiles for downloading mods ;p
I am no longer active to Halo or MGM, and don't guarantee a response on the forums or through email. I will however linger around the discord room for general chatting. It's been fun!
