How's it done?

Hi Jim,
I have joined the order of the microbes and wish to stick their badge on the side of my space (where you have put your badges). I have the guideML tag for it, but can't see how to put it anywhere but in the text. Can you help out?

It isn't the same sort of badge. The ones on the right are added to the page by the system rather than code in the page text itself. You can use absolute positioning to add a badge apparently outside the body of your page (some people put them in a row at the top). However, they will then probably obscure some links and not necessarily fit each site and skin in a suitable manner even if you get them "right" on one.

Bummer.

Well most people probably want to put a little bit of text by each of their club badges anyway, eg explaining what it is or what their interest in it is. However, you could go to <./>Feedback-Features</.> and make a suggestion along the lines that you would like a section reserved on the framing of a page (would still differ between skins) for specifying club badges, rather like the current references section or even footnotes. I don't expect it will happen though (at least partly because the badges vary a lot in size and shape).

Thanks, I'll try and work around it somehow.
