I hate to be the party pooper (especially during a good FAQ), but I wonder if this wouldn't be a lot easier to digest if it were simply written in the usual way, with titles (set off by "== ==") and texts. The multiple titles would generate a table of contents for easy referral, the whole page could easily be read from top to bottom by anybody wishing to do so, and also links to points within it would be a lot easier. -- [[User:Zuleika|Zuleika]] 19:46, 25 March 2011 (PDT) | I hate to be the party pooper (especially during a good FAQ), but I wonder if this wouldn't be a lot easier to digest if it were simply written in the usual way, with titles (set off by "== ==") and texts.

: Sorry, I'm going to disagree there. This is intended to be the FIRST thing some total newcomer looks at. I'd rather not have 6 screenfuls of daunting minutiae staring at them. Organized as it is, the page ''is'' the table of contents. I do take the point it would be nice to cross-link between items, but it also would work to say(e.g.) "the question "'''how do I add images?''' has more information." --[[User:Voxphoto|Vox]] 19:54, 25 March 2011 (PDT) | : Sorry, I'm going to disagree there.

Let's FAQ
I would love to have someone write Q&A's about how to group photos, wrap text around photos and nav boxes, how to keep elements clear from each other, etc. This can be example code shown in an answer here, or a link to a good information source. I don't know the answers to those questions and have been totally faking it ;-) --Vox 08:09, 4 March 2011 (PST)
- Okay thanks to the awesome Dustin McAmera, we've got the "grouping" item down! --Vox 15:16, 15 March 2011 (PDT)
