Mouseover card popup
I'm rapidly finding more and more customization features that this forum lacks.
The code that implements things like spoiler tags and links is called BBCode. It's a simplified and customized version of html that forumotion creates. Many forums allow you to create your own custom BBcode. Like, using a tag called "Rainbow" to change the text to colored rainbow text. Forumotion does not allow custom tags (just like it doesn't allow the administrator to see who voted for what). But you can toss a bit of javascript into the pages here. So I did just that to install a feature that displays a card image when you point the mouse at it. The only limitation is that you have to link to the card at deckbox.org.
Like-a-so:
Naturalize
So here's the procedure if you want to use this feature.
1. Think of a card you want to link to (how about Rust).
2. Go to deckbox.org.
3. Point the mouse at Card Database at the top and choose Magic.
4. Search for your card.
5. Copy the url (web address) of the card. http://deckbox.org/mtg/Rust in this case.
6. Insert a link (the chain at the top of the posting window) and paste the link to the url.
7. If desired, change the text of the link in the box underneath the link.
8. Post.
9. Yay!
Sorry it's so convoluted at the moment, but hopefully I'll find a way to do it better in the future.

Nice job mixing the WoW and Magic together. Hopefully you did this on purpose.

Re: Mouseover card popup
Yes, on deckbox.org you can also link to WOW cards and Warhammer cards (never seen them before). But what you might not remember is that forumotion already created a BBCode tag for WOW. If you put wow between square brackets [], type a card name, then follow it with /wow between the square brackets, you should get the card to appear.
Using the wow tag: [wow]Fear[/wow]
Ok, maybe it doesn't work so well.

This is the link you have to use:
http://deckbox.org/mtg/Jace,%20the%20Mind%20Sculptor
I'll show you tomorrow.
This feature actually sucks. It's the best I can do, though.
