Uploading images


To upload images to be used in forum-threads, there exist many free picture-host-websites on the internet. ( http://imgur.com , http://photobucket.com ,...)
For images that are meant to be included on wiki-pages it is more reliable to upload images to the zero-K site directly.
(in case the host site goes down or blocks due to "hotlinking" in case of heavy traffic)
Here is how to upload images to zK website:


To get the url of the uploaded image rightclick on it, click 'display graphic' and copy the url.
(It will be your chosen 'shortcut' with _bg added in front of file extension)


Subsections / Chapters and Table of Contents


 
<wiki:toc />   //inserts table of contents
= Heading Level 1 = 
blablabla
== Sub Heading Level 2 ==
blablabla
== Another Sub Heading Level 2 == 
bla
blubblub
= Another Heading Level 1 =

xyzxyz



Lists


Unnumbered lists


Adding an space and * in front of a new line like this...
 * Item 1
 * Item 2
 * Item 3

...creates a list:

Tables


|| AAA || BBB || CCC ||
||DDD || EEE || FFF ||
|| GGG || HHH || III ||

creates a table:
AAA BBB CCC
DDD EEE FFF
GGG HHH III
Inside the cells can be more formating.
