This campaign is still in the making (aka not playing yet) so it may be a bit early to ask for a featured submission.
However, I am uploading a MASSIVE amount of content into my wiki, and there is much more to come.
In terms of art work I have only my banner and one map. Im not as good as some when it comes to formating and embedding artwork.
Im not a premium member ether... dose that count against me?
Anyway, Id appreciate any comments/suggestions/votes from my fellow players!
Cheers

* Gods: try giving the titles (Law - Chaos - True Dragons) a heading, right now they look like the rest of the links.
* Characters: just a tip I figured out, if you give each character a 256 x 256 picture (maximun size it allows) all the names in the list will be lined up. If the picture is thiner, just paste it in a white 256 x 256 square and it will look the same way it did, but all the character names will be lined up.
* Map: the same thing I said before for characters can be said for the map. If you resize the original map it will look weird, but if you paste it in a square the map will be shown correctly, and you don't have to worry about the square 'cause it will be white and that's not annoying. BTW: I see that you've already written about some location, try adding some markers to your map to let your players have an idea where each place is.
Hope that helps. Keep up the good work.
I am working on a complex map thingy that will let viewers click directly on the map image to link to the wiki page concerning each location, but its tough.
Id like to change up more than just the heading on the "gods" But im looking for the right font, in this case bigger just isnt enough ;)
I didnt know about the 256x256 character image rule. Thanks for the tip!
Cheers.
I'm intrigued about the complex map you mentioned... what's it about?
On the map: At this point it looks like a failure. You can see what Im working with on my wiki http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/yggdrasil-saga/wikis/khorvaire
Below the map image is a list of all my current locations. Id like it to be so that the hyper-links to these locations were actualy impeded in the map image, allowing the veiwer to simply click on portions of the map inorder to jump to that location's wiki.
Arsheesh has been helping me with this a lot. Here is a recent message he sent me:
Hey Nick. So, I've tried a couple different methods out for attempting to make an interactive map, using the Eberron map on your site as a test case. The first map was a painstaking ordeal that yielded only mixed results, which you can view here:
http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/tales-of-darkmoon-vale/wikis/eberron-test-map
The problem I faced with this method is that while I could adjust the alignment of the "blank" interactive image linked to "Syrania" and "Kythri" from right to left, I could not adjust the height alignment; hence, this method is too imprecise. The other method I attempted uses HTML area map coding (check out this link: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_area_href.asp). Unfortunately, I don't think that Textile supports this kind of coding: see my attempt here:
http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/tales-of-darkmoon-vale/wikis/eberron-test-map-ii
As a result, I'm stuck. I don't know if creating this interactive map is possible or not, but it is beyond my pay grade if it is.
Cheers,
Arsheesh
So you see things are pretty much at a stand still.
I'll keep my eyes open if I find someone that knows how to do this.

Soon it will be a three tir map =)
