Ok, it may not be <I>everyone</I>'s favorite game, but I'm hoping that a few of you will be willing to play!<P>Today's particular episode deals with Big Panda.<P>More specifically, it deals with "how am I supposed to get my icons and stuff up on Panda, as well as on my own site?"<P>Unfortunately, since this is a <I>Canadian</I> game show, the prizs pretty much suck. Of course, this will come as no surprise to anyone who has watched a Canadian game show before...<P>Anyone out there want to be a contestant? <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif">

Putting the "romance" in "necromancer."

Basically, you create a folder in public html called bigpanda and in it you put a small text file called icon.txt, a big one called big.txt, an icon called icon.gif, and a bigger graphic called big.txt. Than there's some rollover images you can do, and the most fun "icon.wav". Mine's the thermos song from The Jerk (the ultimate love song!) ^^ it all goes in you bigpanda folder.<P>i hope that's what you need to know?<P>------------------

</B><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Ee.. sorry, typo. It's "big.jpg" or gif, whatever, i think. They have all this on some page somewhere. including the sizes of images, because they are certain sizes.
The icon text should be something catchy, the big text is what people click on "more" to see, so it should say more. The icon text is what people are using currently to battle each other with.. "sinfest is my bitch" etc. ^^<P>umm.. here it is: <A HREF="http://www.bigpanda.net/faq.html" TARGET=_blank>http://www.bigpanda.net/faq.html</A> <P>the faq, how obvious. enjoy!<P>

Yeah, you can find everything about file names and sizes in the BigPanda FAQ.<P>Pauly

Who me? T'wasn't me, t'was the one armed man! MUHAHAHAH...And about me fighting that bantha. Peice of cake! Just get me a lightsaber and a krat dragon as backup and I'll do fine! Oh, and at the party, I would recommend a fine table setting for 6, the good china, and of course that nice crystal pitcher you adore so much. When the drunken canadian monkeys we invite get here, it'll be loads of fun!<P>-glych<P>------------------
