I have finally finished putting together questions & answers for my “Newfie” (Newfoundland, Canada) version. Can’t wait to use your templete. I have them put on a powerpoint one but just came across yours. I will transfer the info over. I have put it together for our “Newfie ladies night” get together I am hosting early next year. I am also working on a Christmas one, for our family party.
I will send them to you when they are completed.
Thanks again
Carolyn
Riverview, NB, Canada

You’re doing two things wrongly here:

1. The filename needs to be JFJ.mp3 – NOT FJF.mp3 – as detailed in step 5 on this page: http://jeopardygame.wordpress.com/2007/08/21/make-an-mp3-jeopardy-game-step-by-step/
2. The JFJ.mp3 file does not go into the SOUNDS folder, it goes into the same folder where your question file is saved. Typically, you should create a separate folder inside the QUIZZES folder for each quiz that uses MP3 files.

Glad you like it. Please share your good quizzes you make!

One problem I’m having is that I put the final jeopardy music as FJF.mp3 in the sounds file folder hoping I could use it for the final jeopardy question but it doesn’t play or give me an icon to click to make it play. How do I get it to play? Thanks!

Unfortunately this cannot be done with the current version. It is slated for inclusion in a future release.

You need some image editing software to add text to each button. What are you using? You could try The GIMP or Paint.NET – both are free. This process does require some skills with photo editing. If you can’t do it, feel free to send me you skin as is without the numbers and I’ll add them for you (assuming everything else has been done right). Stu.

Are there any more detailed instructions on achieving this? Thanks!
Mary

Are you actually trying to create a skin for the whole game, or are you trying to insert an imag into a question page? If it’s the latter, you can’t do that in this current version. If it’s the former, you’ll need a lot more than one image. Read the instructions carefully above.

Please help!

As answered on the FAQ page, unfortunately no, at present, you can’t change the team names, but that is on the list for inclusion in the next update later in the year. Glad you sorted ot the skin. If you think it’s good enough, why not share it?
