Deviant Art How to Put Group Badges in a Post

PLEASE NOTE THESE Do NOT WORK ON THE Electric current FORMAT OF DA ECLIPSE

I am using deviant arts ain help topic constitute here assistance.deviantart.com/81/. I will be expanding upon what they have with examples, to make it easier to understand. Just so you know I am using their outline and caption, if y'all would like to know which parts were mine and which are theirs just get to the site higher up

How tin I create links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?

There are a few formats you tin can use, either a link of the users name, displaying the members avatar, or by linking with a personal clarification.

---

Avatar linking

:iconusername: will display the member's or grouping'due south avatar as a link to their folio. Retrieve, notwithstanding, that the limit for posting blocks of avatars is sixty 4 per mail, and this will not work in signatures.

---

This seems piece of cake enough, here I volition use my own proper noun. :iconamarantheans: will give you lot

---

Username linking

:devusername: -or- @ username  will give you the member'southward or group's proper name as a link.

---

Now if you just want to link the name of the other deviant this will aid you out. Basicly it volition make a clickable link and then that anyone who wants to become straight there can just click on it, and if they accept notifications enabled, the deviant that you link with get a message saying that their name was linked.
Both of these volition make the aforementioned result every bit you will encounter...
:devamarantheans: gives you Amarantheans
@amarantheans gives you Amarantheans

---

Text linking

There are HTML tags which can be used to add a link to something everywhere on deviantART. The standard link volition show the starting time office of the URL truncated past an ellipsis (http://deviantart.com/devia…). This is accomplished by simply pasting a URL to the page, For example, view i of your images, re-create the address down and and so just paste it wherever.

The second method is to employ HREF tags (which will Non piece of work in the shout box) to give your link a proper name, for instance, copy the address to the image down, and then use this format: <code><a href="Prototype URL accost">Name of Image</a></code>


---

The kickoff office hither is self explanatory, so I will become into more depth on the second part. I will use my ain epitome for an example. I will link you lot to my most favorited deviation... <a href="amarantheans.deviantart.com/art/Da-519333483">DA Trophy</a> and you will become this:  DA Bays

---

Image linking

This will work with images that are on DA and on other sites as well.
To link images in your journal please follow the lawmaking here, and replace the URL Accost and Image URL Accost with the proper information: <code><a href="URL accost"><img src="Image URL address" alt="Proper noun of Image"></a></lawmaking>


---

First let's link the picture of the DA Trophy in the example above:
<a href="amarantheans.deviantart.com/fine art/Da- 519333483"><img src="https://orig13. deviantart.net/e8f1/f/2015/069/a/ane/da_by_amarantheans-d8l74a3.gif"></a>

---

At present to link and image that is off site that cannot exist linked with a :thumb: code:
<a href="http ://www.dreamstime.com/stock-illustration-smile-icon-set-smiley-angry-faces-vector-analogy-image61881275"><img src="https://thumbs10.dreamstime.com/10/smiling-icon-set-smiley-angry-faces-vector-illustration-61881275.jpg" alt="smiles"></a>

---

Before nosotros go on I will explain the difference between the URL address and the Paradigm URL address.
You get the URL Address from the web accost bar at the pinnacle of your browser, when y'all are on the departure you would like to use. (If you are off dA trying to use an item you will need to right click and select "re-create address".)
You get the

Paradigm URL address

when you right click on the image itself and scroll downward to "copy image address" and select information technology.

---

Deviation linking

To link to images found on deviantART in your journal please visit the deviation page and in the sidebar to the right under the "share" or "details" header please re-create the lawmaking that starts with ":thumb:". Once you lot take copied that :pollex: code you can paste information technology in to your periodical and it will automatically generate a thumbnail epitome for that departure when the journal is displayed on site.

---

This is quite simple again lets use my trophy icon::thumb519333483: looks like:

Too if you would like for the image to be larger than the usual thumb endeavor this:
:bigthumb603858821:
Regular :thumb:

Bigger :bigthumb:

(heads up this only works in the comments section if you are a cadre fellow member or have a premium membership, for those of u.s. before core.)

Now thumb codes work for everyone! Thumbnails in Comments At present Available to Everyone

---

Note:  Regrettably, though it is allowed for you to utilize thumb codes and such in the comments and on your journals it is unfortunate that it is a core exclusive when it comes to adding them to a departure description  You can always make a complaint to the help desk-bound to hopefully go DA to improve its ways. Hither is the link:assist.deviantart.com/contact/?t…

Media embedding

To embed a media widget please use the following code: <code><b><da:embed</b> <b>profile="</b>video type<b>"id="</b>ID of the video<b>"/></b></code>
For example:

• dA Film:<b><da:embed profile="picture show" id="308380200"></b>

• YouTube: <b><da:embed profile="youtube" id="xKBsTUjd910"></b>

• Vimeo: <b><da:embed contour="vimeo" id="14803194"></b>

• Soundcloud: <b><da:embed contour="soundcloud" id="79222021"></b> (Note: That ID is the number after /tracks/ in Soundcloud's own embed code)

---

This will work in your journals, comments, and widget boxes.
and the start i:<b><da:embed profile="youtube" id="xKBsTUjd910"></b>
Looks like this:

Pop up descriptions(tooltips)

You can also add popup descriptions with a dotted underline to your links by using the < acronym>< /acronym> tag, and shut using the tag, the format for this is the following. < acronym title="popup text">< a href="link Url">link description< /a>< /acronym>

So the following command;

<acronym title="Read information technology, learn it, dearest it."><a href="https://deviantart.com/users/outgoing?faq.deviantart.com">deviantART FAQ</a></acronym>
would issue in the link,

deviantART FAQ

If however you wish to use this lawmaking without a dotted underline and so you lot need to employ the following code below.

<a title="Read it, larn it, love it." href="https://deviantart.com/users/outgoing?faq.deviantart.com">deviantART FAQ</a>
which would create the link,deviantART FAQ



---

Ok lets try this one out with a link to my electric current contest...

What this will cause is a small pop up to, pop upward when you put your mouse on the link: in my instance it volition say "Come Join In On The Collaborative Fun!"

< acronym title="Come Join In On The Collaborative Fun!">< a href="amarantheans. deviantart.com/journal/Awareness-of-the-Arts-Into-The-Stars- 591369580">Awareness of The Arts Contest< /a>< /acronym>

Awareness of The Arts Contest

And for the no line:

< a title="Come Join In On The Collaborative Fun!" href="amarantheans .deviantart.com/journal/Awareness-of-the-Arts-Into-The-Stars- 591369580">Awareness of the Arts Contest< /a>

Awareness of the Arts Contest

(This last office is really not wanting to work in the journal format information technology keeps rewriting itself, so I had to add spaces throughout the case text, if you would like to copy and paste information technology from the original commodity meet help.deviantart.com/81/)
