Adding userboxes to your user page
You can also add various user boxes to your user page to spice it up a bit. For example, you can use the following to show your current skill levels (I don't know all of them, but I've filled some in as an example:

Just cut and paste the text into your user page (which you can edit by clicking on the "edit" tab when looking at your user page).

You can also add other userboxes that give more information about your play, such as whether you are a member, etc. Look here for some examples.

havin trouble with images!
Im tryin 2 get my stats on my page but it's not workin. do i need to have 2 browsers? 1 with discussion and 1 with my user page? also, how to i make table of contents box? thx!--Vex 327 16:17, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Vex 327


 * You just need to select the text, then do a copy (Control-C) and then go back to your user page, then edit the page, then go to where you want the stats and then page (Control-V). If you want, I can copy it onto your user page for you.


 * Also, the table contents will automatically appear once you have more than 3 heading. There are ways of forcing it to appear even with 3 or less headings if you really want (by typing something like ).  16:20, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Yea Amaurice could you please paste it on this time? thx much i promise ill lean how to pste pics next time --Vex 327 16:23, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Vex 327


 * Okay, I've pasted it in under your "what's coming" heading. You can then moved it around when editing easier now. The other user boxes are much shorter, so worst comes to worst you just type in the bits anyway. Have fun editing. 16:26, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh yes, and you'll need to fill in your other skill levels. I only got the ones I could from the highscores. 16:27, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * The error you are getting from the user stats template is because some of the skill levels are not numbers (because they contain "*" characters in them), so when it attempts to add the numbers together to give the total skill level, it's giving an error. I assume the "*" ones are the ones you are not sure about and are going to check later, so when you have checked them and remove the "*", then all will be well again. 16:42, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

looking good so far, 17:26, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * yea thx guys you've been a big help :) I think im startin to understand the picture thing but one thing annoys me i couldnt figure it out: when you pasted, i couldnt move it to where i wanted. i didnt want to keep mess with it to much cuz i might of ruined my front page! Wat are your runescape user names and can i add u 2? cya :)--Vex 327 17:38, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Vex 327


 * ok i really need help! my stats is gettin in the way of my edits and whats coming sections! how do i move the stat box to where i want it? help! :0 --Vex 327 17:58, 12 December 2007 (UTC)Vex 327

Runecrafting stats
Looks like I made a mistake copying your skill levels in from the official highscores. On the highscores, the name of the skill is "Runecraft", but the template expected it to be called "Runecrafting". I've corrected that now, so your runecrafting level should show up okay now. 13:05, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


 * yes thx a bunch Amaurice, but i still want to know how 2 move my stat box 2 where i want it....--Vex 327 16:34, 13 December 2007 (UTC)vex 327


 * The stat box is a right aligned table (by default) so sticks to the right hand side of the page. The "top" of the box will be positioned where ever it appears in the source. So, to move it up the page, just move the whole block (from the ).


 * As for the user boxes, check the userboxes page. For example, under the Miscellaneous userboxes you will find the ones like the character name, etc, that you are asking about. 17:19, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

improvements
Your page could do with some more colour at the top? and some more features; feel free to take bits from other pages and adapt them for yours if the coding is a prob, its all gfdl so you can copy. Have a browse of other people for ideas. 21:53, 15 December 2007 (UTC)


 * kk thx will do. --Vex 327 17:09, 16 December 2007 (UTC)vex 327

something good for your page
this is an example of another users monster box, it looks pretty cool as it shows you and a bit about you, it is also funny, I will add a blank to your user page, if you want to add a pic of yourself and some info go ahead, if you don't like this idea just delete it. 13:52, 17 December 2007 (UTC)


 * awsome! thx dude! how DO i get a picture of myself?--Vex 327 19:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

you press "print screen" in game then paste the image into an image editor e.g. microsfot paint, save it as vex327 and as a png format, then on your user page, insert the image by editing the monster box, and inserting your image where it says image on the template. and wholla your done. 11:35, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Also, at the moment, it must be used in an article, or it will be deleted. I recommend adding it to an article of an item that is worn in the image that doesn't already have an image of a player wearing/wielding the item. 11:38, 19 December 2007 (UTC)


 * w8....so your saying that i have to have my guy in another article or else my picture on MY page will b deleted?................thats stupid! oh and thx boby ill do that as soon as i get a chance.oh and does it hav o be microsoft paint or can it b just "paint", or are they the same? --Vex 327 14:04, 19 December 2007 (UTC)vex 327
 * Oh, no. Just your image. Sorry if I made it sound like your userpage would be deleted too. Just the image. 19:43, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
 * You don't need to have your personal picture in an article : you can just upload your picture to a free image host (eg Photobucket), then insert it (just copy/paste the URL, it will display the picture - see how I did in my profile). 11:59, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Signature
I've created your signature at Template:Signatures/Vex 327. To use it, just click on the my preferences link at the top right of the page. Change the Namename: field to:

Signatures/Vex 327

And then tick the box labeled Raw signatures (without automatic link) just underneath the Namename: field. Save these changes, then you should get your signature when you use type  ~  in talk pages and in the forums. 11:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Re: Possible template error?
Problem was that you had a capital "G" on "guild". It should have been: Champions' Capitalisation must match in the wikia, except for the first letter. 13:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)


 * kk ty Amaurice =)

Pures
Hi there, when you create a wanted page, you should check if this is not just a broken link (in that case someone had linked to Pures instead of Pure), and then if noone already fixed the problem, because there is a delay : when you remove the link, the wanted page stays in the list until the next update. Hope this helps for your future wanted contributions, so you don't spend time on things that have already been done ;) 17:00, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

Re: log in glitch?
Depending on what browser you use, etc, and whether you have cookies enabled, I noticed that the wikia has an "anti-hacking" method where if you get your user name/password wrong, then you may also have to type in letters from a "picture" as well as typing in your corrected user name and password. If you type in your correct user name and password, but do not type the letters from the "picture", then it says you got the user name and password wrong. My guess is that this is intended, so as to stop simple web hacker scripts easily breaking user's passwords. 13:26, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

RE: Happy Valentines day!
Well, I already got a chocolate frog today... Erm... I normally get a chocolate bunny. 16:14, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

re:happy Valentines day
thanks m8, happy valentines day to you to, dw bout the chocolate lol, I just got a massive bar. 17:54, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

RE:Music glitch
It's not a glitch, it's part of a new update Jagex made. Now the music only changes when the piece is over, then it goes to the right music for the area. Unless I misunderstood the update and I have the glitch too, I guess. 20:07, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe when you logged in, you went into a new area then, I'm not sure. 20:28, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

re: polls
I tend to get round to changing them during a break every three weeks or so, I ought to do it more often, you'll know when my polls change because the colour of the writing at the top of the page changes. 12:21, 20 March 2008 (UTC) There you go added two new polls just for you, I try to stay away from typical booooring polls such as "what is your favourite skill" and ask more specific ones that actually require some thought, although I am interested in peoples summoning levels at the mo so you'll have to excuse that one. 12:45, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

character box
Lol just noticed the appeal for uotm voters on ur page, very flattered tysm once again. :D about the character box, which one is it? the one that displays ur stats or ur montser box? 15:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC) I'll give both a look, but I still need a reply to this. 15:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC) All fixed, theres one blank column, weakness? whih you can fill in, and one i wrote a bit in you may want to change "all of them so watch out!" it happened because they altered the main template to add two new sections. it should be fine now, although I do wish they would stop this. 15:46, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Polls
Theyre up and running, haven't got many votes so far though lol. 14:19, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

re
I'm sorry m8, but pleasing both america and australia means having the party at about midnight here in the uk, I'm not prepared to do this. One of the reasons My old clan was uk pleasing (bout 40 ppl) and anyone who moaned just didn't join, one of the things when joining was they had to agree to times, but anyways I'm sorry I won't move the time. I don't feel like staying up to the early hours, and I'm not sure my parents would allow it, they would see it as unsociable me stuck upsatirs whilst they r downstairs etc. 16:05, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
