Should we be encouraging folks to post answers instead of new questions when they discover bugs with the new fonts? Ex: meta.stackexchange.com/q/364286/622284
Is there a FAQ that lists the image file formats that are acceptable to the uploader? I found meta.stackexchange.com/q/99734/334566 & meta.stackexchange.com/q/81400/334566 but they don't have that info. I know that PNG, JPEG, and GIF are supported. Are there others? I just tried to inline a newbie's .webp file which is hosted on imgur, and it didn't work. So I ended up downloading it & converting it, which is a bit tedious to do on the phone.
A few months ago, I learned that we can display SVGs, both on the sites & in chat, but we can't host them on imgur.
So.... I know some people can make forms look different by mucking with the page sheets somehow to make a mock-up of what the page would look like with additional/different fields - is this relatively simple (for someone with limited programming experience) to do or ... what? I'm trying to make a mockup of a new form for the contact page.
@PM2Ring It's possible to upload an extended list of extensions, and larger images, using one's own account (at Imgur) and pasting the link to the post - did you notice if that's what the OP did, so it worked for them and not for you.
@Catija You can do it in your browser's developer console, but you do need to know the relevant HTML & CSS. And possibly JavaScript, if the stuff you want to change uses JavaScript.
I (just! - haha) need to add a couple of fields with prefilled text - I don't need any of the JS to make it work. Essentially, I want to have a mock-up of what a new entry would look like if it had the appropriate fields and was filled in by a user.
I'm not super experienced with CSS but I know enough HTML to get me in trouble. :P
@Rob The post author is a 1 rep newbie, so they don't have the rep to inline images. They posted a link to an imgur page, not the image itself. I think I tried doing ![some_url.webp] but it didn't display an image.
@Catija That should be easy, then. You just need to write the relevant <input> tags. What browser are you using? Sorry, I can't offer much more help. I'm on my phone (so I don't have a dev console). But someone who knows any Web dev stuff, using the same (or similar) browser should be able to walk you through it.

@Catija Just as one hint, it's relatively easy to play with this in the browser dev tools. But if you want to seriously experiment with this, you need to copy the site locally and edit that. The browser tools are ephemeral, you will always lose your changes on refresh, which gets incredibly frustrating if you try anything slightly bigger
Though honestly, I do think that the cryptocurrency sites are just a straw fire fueled by extremely short-term interest. I think the topic merits a single site, and would benefit from that because it would avoid mindless cheerleading (or this would doom it, because they can't get along at all).
Merging the questions in would not be "easy" because we don't have an actual way to do it without destroying post IDs, which are directly correlated to order of asking.
@MadScientist we used to care... a bit too much about branding.
I don't remember the details anymore, we went as far as we could on our meta, and discussed it with Shog, and there didn't seem any way to actually change the name
I think our problem was that it wasn't about a scope change
This question arises from here where the OP discusses about rushed proposals, in this case for the cryptocurrency IOTA.
My question is of a slightly similar nature in that it focuses on blockchain in general. For those who are not very familiar, blockchain is the underlying technology for blockc...
