Help:Contents

From LightWiki

LightWave 3D, by NewTek, Inc., is complex software and as such people often need as much help as they can get. The principle behind this wiki is to give them that help and to provide the tools that anyone needs to share the information they know with others.

Based on the same software used for the mighty Wikipedia it is easy to use for anyone used to wiki editing. For those unfamiliar with the concept reading up a bit should stand you in good stead.

• If you'd like to add your username to an article or a Talk page like I have above, just type four tildes (~~~~)
• If you like to add an email link to your user page, you can type {{Email|username=BeeVee}} replacing BeeVee with your own username of course!
• To upload pics, you need to middle click on the "Upload Files" link on the left of the page, if you use DragDropUpload in Firefox you can simply drag the files into the requester field speeding things up so much, and then you'll be presented with a page with the picture on it titled "Image:blahblah.gif" Copy that title and either paste it between <gallery></gallery> markers, or add [[ ]] to it and paste it like that.
