@YiJiang The grey box shouldn't be any wider than the image itself...

None of the other images are like that.

Yi Jiang

Edit the width thingy on the code

user2334

@Fluttershy the [caption][/caption] is being translated into real HTML, which is causing the box. Can you view the source of the page and copy the HTML around the image?

Yi Jiang

Try changing width="955" to the size of the image

Fluttershy

@YiJiang That is the size of the image.

Yi Jiang

Your image is 955px wide? That's wider than the body of the blog post

user2334

1:03 AM

Is this on the gaming blog site?

Fluttershy

@MarkTrapp Yeah

Yi Jiang

I assume it is from the background

955px is that wide

user2334

Minus the >... I was trying to do a quote.

Yi Jiang

The blog body should be close to 1k px wide, so 955px would stretch it across the entire width of the blog

user2334

@Fluttershy That doesn't help :/ [caption][/caption] isn't HTML: it's being translated into HTML

Yi Jiang

I think images may have a max-width applied to them, which is why it's small

Fluttershy

@YiJiang I'm not concerned about the size of the image. The image is sized perfectly... It's the box around it that isn't. x_x Can I adjust the size of the box without re-sizing the image?

Yi Jiang

@Fluttershy Change the width to the width of the blog post

725px

max-width: 650px;

That's the max-width of images. If you want it to be a tight fit, change it the width to 660px or 670px

@GnomeSlice Oh yes.

A Very Very Very big thing

It's been characterized, not unfairly, as D&D for Jocks.

Fantasy sport

A fantasy sport (also known as rotisserie, roto, or owner simulation) is a game where participants act as owners to build a team that competes against other fantasy owners based on the statistics generated by the real individual players or teams of a professional sport. Probably the most common variant converts statistical performance into points that are compiled and totaled according to a roster selected by a manager that makes up a fantasy team. These point systems are typically simple enough to be manually calculated by a "league commissioner." More complex variants use computer mode...

GnomeSlice

@LessPop_MoreFizz ...Lol.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@LessPop_MoreFizz Hah. What.

Alok

@LessPop_MoreFizz Is this about Kripparian - watching that too; he's going with a 300 dps weap with high vit

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Alok ya.

Alok

Did he die on the last fight? No idea why he's gone back to Izual

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Alok the last few izzy pulls were soft core test runs

checking damage numbers and such

Alok

ah gotcha; didn't realize they were not HC

LessPop_MoreFizz

this is giving me such hard wow flashbacks

Alok

I'm looking forward to the clone fight

LessPop_MoreFizz

HAHAHAHAHAHA COMMERCIAL TIMING

uggggh wanna watch but wanna sleep

Alok

'I'm gonna need 2 hrs for diablo, we have 2 1/2 for one zone' lmao

I think you can nap & set an alarm; and he'll be duking it out with his 300 dps weap

Wonder what happens if someone at Blizz restarts a few mins too early ...

GnomeSlice

@Alok Some of them are probably watching it too.

On the one hand, I want him to succeed because I'm a nice guy, but on the other hand, I want him to fail so hard because it would be so cruelly funny in an ironic way.

Alok

@skovacs1 As I said, looking fwd to clone fight! Though with his 300 dps weap - he might nod off mid-fight vs big D lol

I'm a bit more motivated to level my HC barb above lvl 10 now

skovacs1

5:58 AM

More SC trial runs? xP

Alok

@skovacs1 Was that at me? Funnily enough, only char I don't have above lvl 10 in SC is a barb :p

skovacs1

@Alok that was in general at Kripp. I don't want to watch the trial runs.

Alok

Yeah u'd think he had done enough runs already

Maybe he's just afraid of stealth changes like everyone else!

Alok

6:29 AM

They're at realm of terror now

The wiz (Krippi) seems to be doing better than the barb atm.

Kripp just died vs clone :o

idk if that was trial or HC

LessPop_MoreFizz

@skovacs1 This is the sort of shit we used to do during wow progression. It's mind numbing, but it's important and it helps a lot.

Alok

Looks like another SC trial :(. The wiz is abusing Hydra life regen bug like anything lol

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Alok Exploit early, exploit often.

GnomeSlice

6:48 AM

Exploits stink.

Alok

@LessPopMoreFizz I have missed the boat on almost all of them :( and to think, my first char was wizard but I was a fool who wanted to solo normal and see everything first.

Amazing ping, I got 75ms when its usually above 200 - guess everyone is busy watching kripp

Q: What wall plug chargers can be used to charge PS3 controllers

I want to charge my PS3 controllers (SIXAXIS) without having the PS3 running (because most of the time when it's running, I'm actually using the controllers). Since the device charges over standard USB (mini USB) I thought it was going to work with any off the shelf USB wall plugs. But I've tri...

Q: Do challenge runs count towards Isaac's completion achievements?

Challenges 9 and 10, Isaac was good today and The purist, require you to kill respectively Satan and Isaac. Do these kills count towards Isaac's achievements, Mom's Knife and The D20?

Q: Will the enemies killed by the explosion caused from Arcane Destruction prolong my Archon duration

The Arcane Destruction on the Archon skill causes an explosion when you transform to the Archon form, causing 450% weapon damage as Arcane to all enemies within 15 yards. Will the enemies killed by the explosion will count as enemies killed by the Archon form and increase the time of the form?

Q: XBOX Indie Marketplace in Australia

Today this happened here in Australia. I have heard that there is an 'indie marketplace' on the XBOX 360 which developers like myself can list their XBOX games on for free, and where gamers can play hundreds of thousands of indie games. This marketplace doesn't exist here in Australia because a...

Q: How to know the DoT and arcane power usage of the wizard's channels spells

The Ray of Frost and Disintegrate spells tell you that they cost 20 AP (without runes) to cast but don't tell how much they cost over time. And they say that they do 215/155% of weapon damage but don't say at over what time period it's done. How can I get that information? What is the time it ...

Q: How exactly do you do a Sonic Drift in the 3D daytime segments?

Drifting in the daytime levels of Sonic Unleashed seems either really clumsy1 or just plain hard. Even on the drifting course in Mazuri, it's astoundingly difficult to do it correctly (i.e. without falling off the track). I can't figure out if it's because I drift (press the shoulder button) too ...

I notice the platform tags were removed despite my comment on the question. Do I just state in my question that I'm referring to the PS3/X360 version of the game?

gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/61862/…

(and why isn't that comment oneboxing)

QAdp

@BoltClock Some people now only want platform tags when asking about the "contact surface between a game and its platform"

which I read as "where does it save?" rather that "how does this port work?"

I think it's bollocks, but that's just me

Q: Platform Tags are Useless

So, for nearly two years now, we've had a fairly straightforward 'rule' for when to use Platform Tags (i.e. ps3, pc etc.): I think it should only be added when: It's a general question about the platform, OR The game in question has multiple versions, AND the question is specific ...
