Templates for Contributors
« on: September 05, 2015, 09:43:45 PM »
These templates will help get threads into consistent format.

If you're a regular contributor and need to be able to edit threads to get cross-thread links in, let me know and I can give you the necessary powers to do so. :)

Note the use of the iurl tag not the standard url tag: url opens a new tab or window, iurl does not.
