I've been trying to do several things on the wiki, but seemed to be hampered by the lack of a good infobox with all the fixin's

Any chance of getting the whole template? I'm pretty sure I can get the CSS code if that would help.

I'm sorry, I don't know the coding side of things, Arjan did all that sort of stuff before he relocated :(

We upgraded only a short while before he went though so I suspect we are fairly standard in most respects.

Arius Vistoon is probably your best bet.

Thanks for the replies.

I guess what I was looking for would be the standard wikipedia infobox as found at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox

The coding for the box, if it is useful, requires two additional modules. They all can be found at the following.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Infobox
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Navbar
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Arguments

This basically allows a template for easily creating a list that can be contained inside a border, can contain images. Basically, something like a domain template can be set up easily and without much hassle.

I don't know how to set this up myself nor do I have extensive coding experience so was just hoping someone can set this up or at least give me a hand trying it myself.

Again, thanks for the replies and let me know something when you could :-)
