	<h1>About SignShops</h1>

	<p>SignShops was created by HAPPYGOPUCKEY for use on the Aprilon minecraft servers blah blah blah...</p>

	<p>SignShops is an easy way to create shops using signs in minecraft etc.</p>


	<h1>Usage</h1>

	<h2>Notes</h2>

	<ul>
		<li>I will be using the shop &quot;undeadnightmar&quot; as an example.</li>
	</ul>


	<h2>Commands</h2>

	<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
		<thead>
			<tr>
				<td width="100">Command</td>
				<td width="200">Parameters</td>
				<td>Description</td>
			</tr>
		</thead>

		<tbody>
			<tr>
				<td>/offer</td>
				<td>{accept | decline}</td>
				<td>Accept or reject an offer</td>
			</tr>
		</tbody>
	</table>


	<h1>Tutorial</h1>

	<p>Right-clicking a sign will give the player information regarding the shop.  This is how the info would appear if I were to click our example sign:</p>
	<img src="ShopInfo.png" alt="shop info" align=center /><br />

	<p>As the information says, accepting the offer will give you 32 coal in exchange for your one diamond.  To accept or decline,  use <code>/offer</code>.</p>

	<p><strong>HOWEVER, To accept any offer you must split whatever you will give the shop into separate inventory slots.</strong> For example, since this shop is buying 1 diamond at a time, you cannot simply have all of your diamonds in one stack.  You need to have one single diamond free in one slot.</p>

	<img src="buy_correct.png" width="400" height="248" alt="Correct" /> <img src="buy_incorrect.png" width="400" height="248" alt="Incorrect"/>

	<p>The image on the left is correct; the image on the right is not. If the shop were buying 2 diamond, there would need to be 2 diamond in a slot.  Keep in mind that the inventory doesn't have to be full, that is just so I can repeat the offer.</p>
	<p>To accept, type <code>/offer</code> accept.  If you type a number after &quot;accept&quot;, it will repeat the offer that amount of times.</p>


	<h2>Making shops</h2>

	<p>To make a shop, simply make a chest and put a &quot;Shop Sign&quot; above it.  Shop signs have this syntax:</p>

	<p>Shop:<br/>amount + name or item id of what you&#39;re selling<br/>for<br/>Amount + name or item id of what you're selling it for.</p>

	<p>Keep in mind you also have to arrange the material you're selling into separate slots, just like you do when buying.  Our trusty example
&quot;undeadnightmar&quot; did this for us:</p>
	<img src="sell_correct.png" width="400" height="248" />

	<p><strong>Note:</strong> If your name is too long to fit on the sign, you can use /itemlookup [block name] to get its item id.  The plugin will automatically
convert item ids to common names whenever displaying shop info as well.</p>


	<h2>Damage values</h2>
	<p>Some minecraft items (Wool, wood, saplings, potions, etc.) have variants to them.  They are all the same item id, the only thing that changes them is their damage values.  To make a shop sign that sells different kinds of wood would need to differentiate the damage values.  To do this, you will need to know the item id(easily obtained with /itemlookup) and what each damage value means.  As of right now the only way to get each different damage value is on an item list; a good list is at <a href="minecraftinfo.com/IDlist.html">minecraftinfo.com/IDlist.html</a>.</p>

	<p>To put this on a sign, simply put the item ID first, then a colon, then the damage value.  For instance, 17:1 is a pine log.</p>
