After completing puzzle one (Ges 01), Explorer comes atop the factory wall and starts across the bridge to the City:

Still experimenting with these long long thin perspectives -- presently using Jennifer's method; i see that long works better than wide, so trying 14" wide and 36" high sideways portrait file:

Step:
1. home file:
<05 LRG L+R small portrait 1.png>

2. image tags:
[img]05%20LRG%20L+R%20small%20portrait%201.png[/img]

3. add spoiler tag:
Show Spoiler


4. plant the above line into Filename, click Addline:

5. and the result is that %20 signs are stuck in everywhere, and i get:
"The extension htm is not allowed."

How can i ever do Blender if i cannot even get the 'spoiler method' to work?

Sigh

Well, it wasn't worth publishing anyway. Here is the Temple by itself:

and here is the tiny copy of the fronting building with the Temple in its plaza to the right:

Again, its a mixed blessing: You cannot see how badly done are the details, but you can see how difficult is color selection in Photoshop. I just cannot get the colors in the Temple to work out with the old D'ni samples. Photoshop fill colors are so primative it makes me -- go pour another 'Scotch'.

Hm...tell me, have you tried loading your pictures into an image hosting site, then image tagging that URL, and then spoiler tagging all of that? I didn't know that you weren't using an internet address under the image tags (or were you?).

pappou: Here's how to put a spoiler around an uploaded image:

Code: Select all
[spoiler=][attachment=0]tsa1.jpg[/attachment][/spoiler]


And here it is in use:

Show Spoiler


Note: that little equals sign after 'spoiler' makes all the difference; the spoiler tag won't work without it.
Can we rebuild it? Yes, we can - here's how.

'The extension htm is not allowed'

BUT
it came up anyway? Maybe it has been showing up all along, in spite of not being allowed? Myst has caught me like that many times. You would think i should know better. And i should.

Here is the tiny version:

This rendoring is about 70% complete, and i think i will move on; its good enough for storyboards.

Edit:
OOPS; i see in rewriting this message that i lost my thankyou to Rob and Jen; i appreciate the help; it is needed.
