...I want to (fill in the blank).

Art imitates life. Specifically, simulating a "Before I die" physical wall with a Wonderwall. I don't think that this has ever been done before - combining a Facebook-like Wall with a forum discussion topic. Well, there's a first time for everything. I am 'dying' to see what you will say...I mean type....

You can access the Wonderwall here:

Think, reflect and type in your thoughts. You can also copy and paste a http://url that ends with a gif, jpg or png file to embed an image. Or you can also paste a http://youtubeUrl if you want to. Have fun with the wall!

I absolutely love this! I have never seen this before (ok I should get out more!smile

Is this something we can all do? Is this a plugin? I would love to have something like this on my moodle.

Hi Sarah. How did I do this? 

I discovered how to add a background image to the Wonderwall.
You can do it too! Here's the embed code. You can put it inside a forum discussion topic.

<h1>Reflection Wall</h1><br /><center><iframe width="200%" allowtransparency="true" name="main" style="opacity: 1; background-image: url(http://www.moodurian.com/mod/forum/bricks.jpg); " scrolling="auto" height="1000px" frameborder="0" align="left" src="http://www.moodurian.com/wall_resource/index.php?CourseId=37&Id=1&Desc=Before I die I want to ..." marginheight="5px" marginwidth="5px"></iframe></center>

You also have to upload the image file bricks.jpg to your /mod/forum folder. The rest is magic!

I just added grafitti fonts to the Wall's Font-family drop down selection box.

Grafitti away!

Now art really imitates life. That's what I call an awesome  wall for students to add their creative messages.

Fonts = New life to Wall.
