[QUOTE="dougbass68, post: 446325, member: 7908"] [b]Reply to Xyffor[/b] Hi Doug/Xyffor- You had a couple of questions about eTools and my character sheet. I did use eTools to do it. Basically, to export to HTML with a picture you need to do a couple of things: 1. In the Bio section of your character, choose an image. There are different types of images you can choose from - see the dropdown with these choices: MM (monster manual), PC (player character), User (your own images). 2. Once you have chosen an image, you then export your character to HTML format. Once you specify a filename, you can then pick an output style. Choose CharacterSheet.xsl for your output style and that will add the image you chose. Chris will probably have to upload the HTML (and the image file) to his webhost for you. Ask him about it. You can probably just send them to him in an email. To know where the image file resides on your harddrive, right click on the image on the HTML page, and choose properties. That will show you the path. My apologies if I'm telling you stuff you already know, I'm just not sure how "savvy" you are :) The other question you had was about equipping your character. I just stumbled onto this myself. Here's how I did it: Choose the Equip section from the listbox on the left side of the screen. Then, from the top dropdown list, choose Armor/Shields. Then highlight your armor (and shield?) and press the "Equip in New Group" button. That's all there is to it :) BTW, I liked your character story. Where did you come up with all those names - were they invented by you, or did you get them from some book you read? Oh, the last thing. You asked about how I got the image in my signature. I did that using the [img] and [/img] tags. Between them, you put the URL of the image for your character. Unless you have a personal website of your own, you'll have to wait until Chris uploads your character sheet to his website. Then you can use that URL. Here's the an example of the code you might use in your signature (assuming the picture has been uploaded to Chris' site using the path below): [img]http://www.luisalejandro.net/stormfront/assets/xyffor.jpg[/img] let me know if you have any more ?'s!
