warnings

[roxy]

I happened to be thinking about this subject lately, so I was very surprised to see it's being knocked around. I'm thinking that yes, it's a good thing to warn people, and now that I see how it's possible to do so without spoiling your story or whatnot, I will. Most of my personal posts aren't really all that personal and if it is something extremely personal, I stuff it behind a cut, I also have filters, but doing that to a *story* (unless it's in tryouts--i do that sometimes) kind of defeats the purpose of posting it, right? So, remind me to do the warning thing from now on. You know I'm going to forget about a bazillion times before it becomes habit. Also, please don't rush to tell me why it's not a good idea, and how you'll never do it, because I don't care.

I've put spoiler warnings or additional warnings at the end of a fic and told people about it at the top in A/N. Is there a neater way to do it?

I think that's fine--but warning for death in a recent story I wrote might have spoiled it, even though I seriously considered it. So, this way makes it good for every one!

'inviso' code:(span style="color:black; background:black;" title="highlight to read warnings" ) insert text (/span) - change ( ) to < >

Doesn't show up until you highlight it! :)

Hmmm, I've had this happen on some of my posts by accident and it drives me crazy because I didn't know the code to go in and erase to get rid of it. Now I know, plus I can use it to hide future warnings. Thanks very much for the help.
