General
Q: Why did you make this website?
A: To encourage people to write or draw. I personally
enjoy both (even if I'm not that good), and I've always liked the websites
that would let me post my work. I didn't like how so many site owners would
never post your work and just stopped updating the site, so I wanted to
make one that wasn't like that.
Q: My question isn't answered on the FAQ, what should
I do?
A: E-mail
me with the question, as long as it isn't on the FAQ.
Q: I found an error! What should I do?
A: E-mail
me right away and explain what went wrong so I can fix the problem.
Joining/Posting:
Q: How do I get my work posted?
A: Check the How
to Join page. If you're already a member, go here.
Q: How long will it take for my work to be posted?
A: It can take anywhere from an hour to a week,
but should be posted within two days. If it's been a week and your work
hasn't been posted yet, e-mail
me.
Q: Will I be able to edit/delete my work?
A: Yes, but it will take some time before it's
updated.
Q: Can I post my work on other websites?
A: Yes, but you should make sure your name is on
it. This way people won't think you stole the work.
Q: Can I post other people's work here?
A: No, this website is only for your original work.
Q: Can I post someone else's work from Mystical Dreamers
on my website?
A: Only if you have that persons permission to
do so.
Artwork
Q: Why do I have to upload my artwork onto the internet
first?
A: This makes it much faster and easier to add
your work to Mystical Dreamers, but you can currently send it to MysDreamers@aol.com if you don't want to. Just make sure you include all necessary information..
Q: Will you be linking to the pictures on my website?
A: No, I'll be uploading them onto the Mystical
Dreamers website.
Q: My graphic is too large! How can I get it posted?
A: First, try to make it smaller. If you resize
it, you may be able to get it posted. If that doesn't work, you can search for a program that will compress it. You'll have less detail, but it will fit.
Q: If my picture is too big, can you just link to it
on my website?
A: If you like I can add a link to the picture,
but it will be separated from your other pictures.
Q: Then how do I do that?
A: There are two ways; you can add the link under
your favorite links on the member page, or send it like you would any other
picture. If you choose the second option, you must add that you want it
to just be placed as a link under Descriptions.
Q: How will I know if my picture is too big?
A: Right now, it must be under 100k. I would appreciate
it if you would make it less than that, if possible.
Member's Page
Q: How do I change my member page?
A: Go to Enter
Work and click on Change
Member Profile.
Stories/Poetry
Q: How long can my stories be?
A: As long as you want, though if it's really long
you may want to separate it into different parts.
Q: How do I edit a story?
A: If you're changing the entire thing, copy your story/poem by highlighting
it, right-clicking it, and choosing copy. Then go to the Enter
Work page and click on Edit
a Story/Poem. Click in the box that says Story and paste (right-click
and chose paste). This feature should be updated soon.
Q: There are parts of my story that won't be accepted,
what can I do?
A: Edit it so it will be accepted. This doesn't
mean you have to change the story, just don't go into any details.
Extras
Q: Can I add HTML to my story/poem/member page?
A: Of course. Just add the HTML code where necessary
and the code will be there when the story/poem/member page is updated.
Q: What kind of HTML can I add?
A: Anything that will change the font will work,
you can also add bars and tables.
Q: What about Java Script or advanced HTML?
A: I will not add Java Script, frames, or anything
else that will greatly affect the page.
Q: Can I put a picture in my story/poem/member page?
A: Yes, but it has to be one you previously sent in (add a note in the description part that says you don't want it displayed as an image).
Q: How do I add the picture?
A: Edit your story/poem/member page and put the
HTML code where the picture is to be placed. If there's something special
you need done with it, add a note in parentheses and I'll do my best. The
note will be deleted when I update the page.
Q: I don't want any banners on my page! Can I get rid
of them?
A: Sorry, I can't do anything about the banners
until I get my own domain.
Message Boards
Q: Do I have to sign up for the message boards?
A: No, you don't.
Q: This didn't work, I found an error, etc.
A: The message boards are hosted by ezboard.com,
so I can't fix most of the errors you would find. If you know it's something
I can fix, contact
me.
Q: My message board isn't up yet! Why?
A: If you just joined Mystical Dreamers,
it may take a while before it will show up.
