[Rotary-Motion]

making all pics the same size as smallest picture so all match

and!

how do i link page into main biodiesl site?

Looking good.

You could try a gallery to get uniform size pics, side by side ...

This code

<gallery caption="title" widths="300px" heights="300px" perrow="2">
File:file name 1.jpg|Text under pic here.
File:file name 1.jpg|Text under pic here.
</gallery>

You can adjust the widths and heights to suit, but don't make the page too wide for people with small screens!

I think linking to the body of the main page is a manual edit, but it will add automatically to the categories if you stick


~~~~
[[Category:Vegetable oil]]

At the bottom of the page, the squiggles will insert your name and date as the author.

To keep format with other pages, loose the heading "Waste Vegetable Oil" and under the first paragraph put the code


---TOC---

To force a table of contents.  Normally a TOC appears automatically if you have more than three headings.

I'll try and have a closer look later today, unless Tony beats me to it ... he usually does!

Ok don't quote me on this but ...

There doesn't appear to be a facility to resize a photo if you use the |frame| tag.  It simply appears at the size you uploaded.

Using the |thumb| tag or no tag you can resizing, by adding   |200px     so    [[File:myphoto.jpg|200px]]    and    [[File:myphoto.jpg|thumb|200px]] both work.

With all three if you click on the photo you see a separate page with the photo at uploaded size.

Gallery seems to work ok but you need to remove the [[ ]] and |frame|left| bits from the original code, just leaving   File:myphoto.jpg|title.  The gallery settings do the resizing.

I've left the page in gallery format but please edit as you see fit.

PS don't forget to add four squiqqles ~~~~ above the category, to attribute the page to you.

Oh, also added the degrees symbol to the temperature ... Alt+0176 = °

Ah, ha ... just found adding    align="center"   works in the gallery code.
