This front page was based on one created by Soldan. -Roger 08:50, 4 February 2008 (EST)

Would anyone be opposed to updating the main page's large image with each kingdom's heraldry to be click-thru navigatable? There is an easy tool to create the code here: [1]. I'm willing to create the code but an administrator would have to add it. I think it'd be a nice addition. Hooper 10:32, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
- Okay, to make it work, replace
[[File:Amtgard-all-heraldry.png|400px]]
with the following:
<imagemap> Image:Amtgard-all-heraldry.png| poly 306 139 480 239 478 470 397 540 307 559 224 541 136 473 124 319 135 220 [[Amtgard|Amtgard]] rect 263 12 355 132 [[Burning Lands|Kingdom of the Burning Lands]] rect 373 48 470 176 [[Emerald Hills|Kingdom of the Emerald Hills]] rect 482 114 581 234 [[Celestial Kingdom|The Celestial Kingdom]] rect 505 240 607 357 [[Golden Plains|Kingdom of the Golden Plains]] rect 507 362 600 483 [[Iron Mountains|The Empire of the Iron Mountains]] rect 479 482 582 602 [[Goldenvale|The Kingdom of the Goldenvale]] rect 374 548 473 665 [[Dragonspine|The Kingdom of Dragonspine]] rect 263 598 361 717 [[Wetlands|The Wetlands]] rect 147 548 249 672 [[Neverwinter|The Kingdom of Neverwinter]] rect 41 482 136 595 [[Blackspire|The Kingdom of Blackspire]] rect 0 363 98 480 [[Rising Winds|The Kingdom of the Rising Winds]] rect 41 112 136 236 [[Desert Winds|The Kingdom of the Desert Winds]] rect 149 52 242 167 [[Tal Dagore|The Kingdom of Tal Dagore]] rect 6 238 106 359 [[Crystal Groves|The Kingdom of the Crystal Groves]] desc bottom-left </imagemap>
Any slight misspellings that cause bad links can be fixed like normal by correcting the above Wikilinks. Additionally, I am not familiar with all of the official full names of the kingdoms (i.e. Empire of versus Kingdom of versus The Kingdom of versus Kingdom of the, etc.) so the rollover text can be corrected if need be as well. May have to tweak it to get the same 400 px as well. Hooper 20:41, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
- Can't seem to get it to lay right. I have tried adding brackets to a few places, and I can make the image show, but the roll over text appears as one giant block, I must be doing something wrong. To that end, I'm going to unlock the front page temporarily so that you can apply the code properly. Let me know when you are ready, Mister Hooper. --Linden 21:44, 10 October 2011 (EDT)
