How do I get llama awards? Or does this not belong here?

 

~:n:~

 

You just do the "achievements" listed here here.

Am I allowed to embed videos(Content Blocks)?

If so, how?

Would I be allow to post a something like a hand-draw comic in my Blog? Just wondering. Please try to answer this, when you have the time. ~JMJ-07

Yeah, you are allowed to, but the only way I know of to embed them is by making them animated GIFs or Flash files. I don't think you can embed MPGs, but I'm not sure on that one.

Yeah, that's fine, so long as the content is appropriate.

MPGs cannot be embedded on BZP.

What is the limit in pixels for the width of a picture in a contentblock before it gets cut off?

What is the limit in pixels for the width of a picture in a contentblock before it gets cut off?

That depends on how wide you've got your content blocks set to. To change them, go to Your Blog Settings > Look > Content Block width? (in pixels). However, there's a mandatory 14 pixel border^{(7 on each side)}. For example, if you had a 250px wide image, your content block width would have to be set to 264px if you wanted the image centered.

I know .BMP isn't allowed for banners but is it okay for contentblocks?

The .bmp extension cannot be used anywhere on BZP. It won't allow you to post it in image tags. But you can link to .bmp images if you like.

Would a blog hosted shop need approval?

Is there any way that the Blogs could be set up to have a "banner" of sorts permanently displayed above entries? Right now I just have an image that I move to each new entry.

 

It's more a request, if it's doable.

Would a blog hosted shop need approval?

I would say so, seeing as the reason why RPGs aren't allowed in the blogs is that they would bypass the rule against unapproved RPGs in the forums. I would, therefore, assume that the same applies to shops.

 

T-Hybrid, I don't know of any way of doing that. I'm sure such a feature could be made, but it'd be more trouble than simply adding the banner code at the top of every entry.

The only way I can think of is to have an image in a content box near the top.

And does the chatspeak rule only apply to text, or are images with questionable spelling in captions covered too?

Yes, it applies to images too.

Is there any "Comment count" or something?

 

Thanks

Yes.

I believe he meant "Comment count" as an an equivalent of the post count in the forums. There isn't one of these; if one were to be introduced, it would only encourage "comment count inflation", which would inevitably lead to the enforcement of stricter rules in the blogs.

Is there a such thing as Entry Revival?(Is there a limit to when we can post a comment?)

Is it allowed to have like a point- shop in your Blog? I've seen many members with them.

EDIT: Oh, Is it O.K. to ask members to comment on something?

1. You can comment on an entry whenever you want to without breaking rules. If someone mentions "entry revival" concerning blogs, it's probably referring to the bumping of an entry by drafting it and then publishing it, which is also allowed (unless the person doing it isn't premier, then it's blog/entry bumping, which is against the rules).

 

2. I assume you're talking about where members can "buy" items (usually represented by images) from the blog author by saving up things such as their "awesome points". Those are fine.

 

Edit: 3. It's fine to ask politely in the entry. Don't make the first comment in the entry, though, as that is considered the same as double posting.

What are blog approvals for?

 

They're just images given from one member to another saying that they think their blog is really good.

Can I advertise shops and RPGs with my blog?

You can advertise any topic you wish.

 

Alright, I have a question of my own. Is there any rule to prevent Premier Members from drafting/publishing entries excessively? It's getting a bit annoying in a couple places

 

-Exo (awesome)

There is no rule against that. Premier Members may draft and publish any entry they want. Only normal members are not allowed to do that.

it was asked whether blog hosted shops needed approval, KR13 said they do but didnt say who to ask for approval..?
