How to give credit ◊ How to make cool text links

It's really important here at dA that you give credit to
the dA stock provider and also tell where you have found
the images / references for your manipulations and other
artworks... Some can really be pissed off and spoil your
joy and day by accusing you for art theft as worsest ><

I got help myself when I joined dA and therefor I try to
give some hints how to do these links and fancy variations
of texts on your "Artists Comments"... And on your journals.


To give credit for a stocker you can do it like this:

Background by ~DimagerStock -That's the simpliest way

Write:

Background by : d e v d i m a g e r s t o c k :

... deviant name without those spaces and you
have the name and link all in same making all
happy, it's fine with me even I require the
icon in my stock rules...

Write:

Male model by : i c o n d i m a g e r s t o c k :
... deviant name without those spaces
and it becomes this: Male model by

And so on ... Then if you can track back to the
original deviation (stock photo) you just copy
the http address line for being the link to that
actual stock image looking like this: [link]

Therefor when you download pics -copy the deviation URL
name or number somewhere... This all takes a little time
but it's worth doing good job and even you get respect

All other images outside dA you can just mention by the
name and place where from.

Here's some basic stuff to play with the texts here at dA

< b > B O L D < / b > ----> BOLD text

( Do it without spaces )

In case if you want to use italic...

< i > I t a l i c < / i > ----> Italic text

( Do it without spaces )

< s u b > for smaller text < / s u b > ----> _{smaller text}

( Do it without spaces )

Making LINKs as text and avatars to deviants:

: d e v d i m a g e r : ( again without spaces )

>>> becomes >>> *Dimager with a working link: *Dimager

So basically you put : d e v (put account name here) : ,
no caps and then it becomes clickable.

And Dimager's icon comes as a link like this:

: i c o n d i m a g e r : ( without the spaces )

Here you put : i c o n (put account name here) : ,
no caps and then it becomes a clickable avatar.

* To give credit to a stocker is important and simpliest
way you can do it is like this:

Write:

AND HOW TO MAKE...

HTML text link:

TYPE: < TYPE a href="http:// TYPE the website address here "> TYPE words you want displayed here and end with < / a > -again without spaces

Hope that makes sense...

For exsample link to Dimager's gallery with text:

Link to Henrik's gallery

( same with 4 spaces marked with "X" -take them away )

<Xa href="http:// dimager. Xdeviantart. Xcom" > Link to Henrik's gallery<X/a>

Or a text link to some deviation:
( with 2 spaces marked with "X" -take them away! )
-starting with <Xa href =" and ending with <X/a>

type without "X":
<Xa href="http://www. Xdeviantart. Xcom/deviation/4838328/">A portrait painted with oils<X/a>

( again the "X"'s marks a spaces -take them away! )

<Xa href="http://add here between the http... URL-line">type here between your text you want<X/a>

The clickable link looks like this:

A portrait painted with oils

___ Only when you are a subscriber or a beta tester _ :/ _
_{Then you can center your text with <div align="center"> *** </div> -codes
and also feature image thumbnails on journal with a code along every deviation}
The thumb code is : thumb25201850 : (without the spaces, of course)
_{Now there's an option which allows you to drag and drop
art from your collections into journal under edition.}

I Hope these are for a help and my stock inspire your creativity!
