h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Why Hello Bryher and welcome to the H2G2 lifestyle!

I am sure you have had a good look around the site and there is lots about. You are bound to be ACEed soon enough by some kind ACEer - what a brilliant name Smilies are great, if you click on any of them, they'll take you to the page with the full list. It is also a good idea to have a look at the GuideML because, without it, your articles will look soo blocky and impenetrable! An important thing to remember, if you are writing in GuideML in an article, you should always start with the tags:

< GUIDE>
< BODY>

then write all you want and finish with

< /BODY>
< /GUIDE>

taking out the spaces between the < and the G, B or /.
Simple to implement but I didn't see it all that specifically stated in any of the guides around. The code is very much like HTML and rules can *usually* be crossed over between languages.

Anyways, I will allow you to walk around the complex a bit more, enjoy your stay

Thanks very much for the warm welcome!

I guess I might as well find out about all these smilies! - They look really cool

I shall go away and have a look at these now!

Have a read of my new article if ya want!

*drops by*



Oooh, gotta work on my landings.

Anyway! I'm one of those ACEs BenniBi spoke of - is there anything I can help you with?

Nothing really to ask, other than - can I use GuideMl in these replies - or does it have to be rich text?!

thanks

GuideML only works in entries. And entries can be done in both text and GuideML - there's a box to click for which one you want to use.

So for these - it's just typing away, no special codes. Except for smileys.

I was looking at the smiley list - it is soooooo extensive!!!

I will learn some of em i guess, the cool ones i expect!!

Misscooldude.

They're not too hard to learn... most of them make perfect sense:

< angel > is , < cake > is ... and so forth.

*pops in too*
HOLA! Hi Amy
Hiya Ben!
Hi Misscooldude!

Well, just saying hello, so hello! How are you getting along?

*has tension headache from working on an essay*

*gives Amy aspirin* What essay then?

Nothing difficult.. just comparing and contrasting the creation accounts in Genesis and Ovid's Metamorphoses... I think the headache is actually from staring at this screen for too long.

Argh..that sounds trying. Hmmm...well you certainly can't log off!

Me log out? Never!

But I may move my study area to my bed or the lounge or something... get away from pixilated life.

Good luck! Hope the headache goes away..

Thankye.

Oooh, tylenol (that's the basic American pain reliever for you Brits), thou art my best friend...

This is me getting away from my computer now. Honest.



















Really.










why are you looking at me like you don't believe me?

I WASN'T LOOKING AT YOU LIKE I DIDN'T BELIEVE YOU! Honest!
