Alright, because several people have now asked me how I get the links and images into my
Ao3 works
Ao3 notes & summary
Ao3 comments
and (for links only) Tumblr description
Links first, images further down!
Here's a quick guide on how to get the HTML directly from ao3 when you are (like me) too lazy to learn the code by heart... btw the Code is:
<a href="Http: the url you want to have linked">Your link text</a>
So you could also just save this post somewhere xD
On ao3 though, you'll just open a new work (or do it in the work you've already open, but then be carefull not to destroy anything in HTML mode), go to Rich Text, type in your link text, click the link symbol and type/paste your url as follows:
If you only wanted a link in your fanfic, congrats, you're done! Otherwise you'll now want to go back to HTML mode to copy the finished link code and paste it wherever you want to have it :)
Details under the cut:
Please note that the < p > before and after the link are just paragraph breaks, so delete those if you don't need/want those!
For the tumblr description, you need to go to the Web version and edit your description in 'edit theme', there's a post explaining it in more detail here
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To add images to Ao3, you first need an image link - you can get those for example through a tumblr post (or draft, if you don't have the image posted to tumblr or it is nsfw and might be deleted - just make sure not to delete the draft later, best use a less used sideblog):
Then go to Ao3 - New Work - Rich Text same as for the links below, but now you select the 'image' icon and paste your image link into the URL field:
You can also add an image description here and adjust the image size, just make sure the lock symbol on the right is closed, otherwise it will distort the image.
If you want to use the image elsewhere afterwards (notes, summary, existing work), go back to HTML and copy-paste the entire text you find here!
Hope this helps! @jackwolfskid @bookerandy @cryhardanddanceharder
