====Basic Use====

*Code: &lt;aodb&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;<br>
 +
*This provides only the icon, linked to [http://www.aoitems.com aoitems.com], and the item's name on mouse-over. Default icon size is 48px square.
 +
*Example output: <aodb>267257</aodb>

*Code: &lt;aodb opts="24px"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;<br>
 +
*To pass along wiki specific markup for images to the file, use the ''opts=""'' attribute.
 +
*Example output (opts="24px"): <aodb opts="24px">267257</aodb>
 +
*Example output (opts="24px|frame|none"): <aodb opts="24px|frame|none">267257</aodb>
 +
<br>
 +
====Include Item's Name====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb sidetitle="aoi"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;<br>
 +
*Include the item's name on the right side, and link it--either to itemsite or wiki page.
 +
*Example output, link to aoitems.com (sidetitle="aoi"): <aodb sidetitle="aoi">267257</aodb>
 +
*Example output, link to wiki page of item's name (sidetitle="wiki"): <aodb sidetitle="wiki">267257</aodb>
 +
<br>
 +
====Text-Only/No Icon====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb icon="false"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;<br>
 +
*If you're wanting only a link of the item to aoitems.com, and no image.
 +
*Example output: <aodb icon="false">267257</aodb>
 +
 
 +
====Remove Link====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb link="false"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;<br>
 +
*If you're wanting the icon to just be an image, and not go anywhere. Still includes item name on mouse-over.
 +
*Example output: <aodb link="false">267257</aodb>
 +
 
 +
====Inline====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb inline="true"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;
 +
*Allows you to put a link with tiny icon in a sentence.
 +
*Example output: <aodb inline="true">267257</aodb>
 +
 
 +
====Custom Tooltip====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb tooltip="OMG OP MP Weapon"&gt;267257&lt;/aodb&gt;
 +
*Allows you to change the tooltip/mouse-over text for the icon.
 +
*Example output: <aodb tooltip="OMG OP MP Weapon">267257</aodb>
 +
 
 +
====Reference icon ID====
 +
*Code: &lt;aodb id="icon"&gt;264841&lt;/aodb&gt;
 +
*Use an icon's ID instead of an item's ID. This is a super niche feature, and 99% of the time is not needed, but available for that 1% of the time. You would need to locate the icon's ID and use that in place of the item's id.
 +
*Example output: <aodb id="icon">264841</aodb>
