A Complete Guide to 'Limited HTML' on AO3

by CodenameCarrot

There are some great quick guides to HTML on A03. This is not one of them - it is a comprehensive guide, dividing all of the available tags into the following categories:1. Text Formatting (in-line HTML)2. Page Formatting (block HTML)3. Tables and Lists4. Links and ImagesEach tag will have - at a minimum - a link to the w3schools page about it (so you can learn more), a code example, and the result of the code example. It will also introduce tag attributes, ways to further refine formatting, for a few simple - but widely applicable - cases.

All the Emoji

by CodenameCarrot

As of April 2016, The database that stores works on A03 does not allow emoji. If you try to add an emoji it will end your story there. Any words after the emoji? Poof. Gone. This is a known, if poorly advertised, issue with the archive. There are some workarounds; you can find them in: How to Make iOS Text messages on A03. But here? Here is for ALL THE EMOJI*. 10 chapters of emoji tables, each with the HTML for putting the emoji into your work and the CSS for putting it into your workskin. Copy-Paste baby. Copy-Paste. *Does not contain the 2016 Unicode release. You'll have to come up with the code for pickle yourselves. (Note, because this is 10 chapters of emoji tables, here is a link to the Index Tables (chapter 1) to speed up load times and reduce confusion if you have preferences set to "entire work.")

How To Create A Cult

by Koruga

The Chairman ordered us to seize all evidence related to the Project. We were shocked to find that apparently the Director had spent all of their time creating a how–to book. We now present this strange and evil document to the people of the UNSC.
