Title: How to: Setup a Map topic [Updated - 1-23-12 - 8:28 AM] [Progress Log Added!]

I made a sample for setting up a topic on your map, all you need to do is copy and paste the inside code below, and change the things in the < > areas.  :)

Code: [Select]
[center][size=24pt][u][color=limegreen]<Map Name Here>[/color][/u][/size][/center]
[b]
[right][size=14pt][b][color=red]<Map Message Here> (Ex. "Will you Descend?")[/color][/b][/size][/right]

[size=18pt][color=beige][u][b]About the map:[/b][/u][/color][/size]
<Message Here>

[b]
[u][size=18pt][color=beige]Progress:[/color][/size] [/u]
<Message on Progress Here>[/b]

[table]
[tr]
[td][color=teal][b]Lighting:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Decals:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Brushing:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Displacement:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Skybox:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Foilage(Outside area[s]):[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Props:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>
[color=teal][b]Optimization:[/b][/color] <Link image Here>[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]


[size=18pt][color=beige][b][u]Progress Log:[/u][/b][/color][/size]
<[Date][Time] : Message>

[color=beige][size=18pt][u][b]Screenshots:[/b][/u][/size][/color]
<Message on Screenshots here>[b][color=red][u]UPDATED [<Date Here>] [<Time here>][/u][/color][/b]

[color=red][u][b]<Screenshot List Title here>[/b][/u][/color]
[spoiler]<Screenshot image link here>[/spoiler]


[color=beige][size=18pt][u][b]Download:[/b][/u][/size][/color]
<PlaceHolder>
How it will look:

Use tables so those progress bars and dates vertically align.

Code: [Select]
[table]
[tr] [td]Subject[/td] [td]Progress bar[/td] [td]Date[/td] [/tr]

[tr] [td]Subject[/td] [td]Progress bar[/td] [td]Date[/td] [/tr]

[tr] [td]Subject[/td] [td]Progress bar[/td] [td]Date[/td] [/tr]
[/table]

Spoiler: What that will look like (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Example (click to show/hide)

 :thumbsup: to the guide!
