Quick Guide For Offsite Linking

Suppose you want to create a papercraft page but don't have the file on your computer or the file size is too big. Just find another site hosting it (or host it yourself at a file hosting site such as megaupload or rapidshare) and provide a link. I'll use Darknut as an example.


The zip file for Darknut is much too big be hosted on the wiki (6.11 MB). Fortunately, it is on plus4chan.org. We can link to it. So let's create a wiki page for it!

First click the "Papercraft" button on the side bar. Don't use the "Add a new page" box since that is only for adding non-origami/papercraft pages.
