    Starting a forum to capture tips and tricks that can be used to get into a Style guide or at least a getting started guide.

    1) So for figures, we need to get find a way for page images to show for non eps, since we use latex->dvi->gs the latex command does not generate a dvi file if the figures are anything put eps.  So if you notice that png won't render anything you need to use eps for figure.  I am looking to see how we can work around or auto convert if other formats are found like jpg/png.  

    So for pdf rendering we use command pdflatex which seems to handle lots of different types of figures.

    2)  For pdf rendering if you don't want figures to show up at top specify placement, example inline [h]

    \begin{figure}[h]
    \centering
    \includegraphics{UniformMotionFig1.png}
    \caption{1. }
    \end{figure}

    3) Inkscape is a good figure generator that is free

    replies can add as we learn.

    Hello,

    My name is Elias and I am a huge fan of PlanetMath.org.

    Via Planetmath I took knowledge of this PlanetPhysics Site.

    I would like to sugest - already as a huge fan of this site - the creation of two foruns:

    1)one about the history of physics

    2)one about Voyage in Time

    it all could be nice

    Thanks

    Elias

    Since this is the only forum for the moment, I am posting the message here. As I already said on PM very frequently is comming the following error:

    -----------
    Internal Server Error

    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

    Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

    More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

    Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
    -------------

    Also, one strange thing is that when I first accessed the cite, there was list of TOP users. But, after that nothing is displayed there.

    Anyway, great start!

    Regards
    Serg.
