[edit] Signing your posts

To sign your posts on a talk page, simply add ~~~~ at the end of your post. It is possible to create a custom signature; see Help:Preferences#User profile.

[edit] Pictures

File:Example.JPG
Example of right-aligned picture with caption

You can place images right in the middle of the text using [[Image:Example.JPG]].

But use [[Image:Example.JPG|thumb|right|(caption)]] where (caption) is some text to be placed under it, so it doesn't mess up the page.
