Cave Gallery Tutorial
Hannah and the Pirate Caves Interguild

Here at the Interguild, you can view the cave galleries of other cavers. These galleries are actually forum topics in our Cave Gallery board that are filled with the codes for the caves that the user has made. This way, a visitor can just upload their cave onto their account and play it, without having to ask that user to put it up on their account. But remember, stealing someone's cave is NOT allowed. If you are caught claiming someone else's cave as your own, you will be banned from our forums and possibly reported to Neopets.

To start your own Cave Gallery, make sure that you have an account in our forums. You can registerhere. Once you have an account, go to theCave Gallery board, and make anew topic. Obviously, you'll need to enter a title for your topic. You should probably include your username in it somewhere, so that people know who's gallery it is. You can view the board page for examples of what others name their galleries. As your first post, you might want to give a little information if you have anything to say. Then, you can start posting your caves.

First, you'll need to find your old cave codes. Remember that Cavemaker adds one layer of terrain around your entire cave whenever you copy your code from directly from it. Make sure to copy your codes from Cavemaker to avoid bottomless pits. 0_o Otherwise, you can just copy the txt file. But are you having trouble loading your caves from Cavemaker? Then you probably have the glitched version that Neopets provides. To get the version of Cavemaker that doesn't have the loading glitch,click here!

Now that you have your cave code(s), it's time to learn how to post them. If you directly post it into a message, the internet browser will try to read it as html. To prevent this from happening, you'll need to use the CODE option in the posting options. See the image to the right as a guide. Be sure to include the end tag for the "code" option after your coding. Basically, what this option does is that it encloses you code in a table and sets it so that it won't be read as html. This also makes it easier to copy. As you add each cave, some people like to add brief descriptions of each cave so that the visitor gets an idea of what the cave is like.

After you add a couple of caves, your cave gallery will be huge! Eventually you'll have multiple pages of caves ready for anyone to try. This also serves as a great organization method for keeping track of your caves, incase you lose your files.
