The instructions aren't updated and are currently broken so this doesn't help squat.

And what it looks like it says on the fact of using more accounts than one doesn't sound "resourceful" and im thinking its wasting the staff's time. (Considering its against the rules to make more than 1 account)

I believe the tutorial should be ok... if the methods described broke any serious rules or otherwise inconvenienced staff or others, it would have been locked a long time ago.

I would suggest adding more preset folders into the files, but albeit I'm not sure if this would work with the way the game is coded. Worth a shot at least. I'm not too intimate with the scripts, I'll admit, but I do have an alternate solution if someone else can't create one.

But you could also create a "backup" preset folder and just switch out the files as needed if that makes sense. Like, say you don't use the character that has preset 1 too often; you could cut the files within it and paste them into a different folder. Then you could put your thirteenth preset into the preset 1 folder. There wouldn't be more than 12 ACTIVE presets using this method, but you can have as many presets as you like if you swap out the different files.

It's not against the rules to make more than one account, it's just that multiple accounts are not encouraged:
Quote from: Official Game Rules
We also discourage users from creating tons of accounts for the game by themselves, for more than one reason. If the staff believes a user is in possession of too many accounts, some of them might be deleted without any warning.

It's not against the rules to have more than one account. It is against the rules to have a ton of accounts.

  • Multiple Accounts
    [...] If possible, members of this site/game/forum should keep their account count as low as possible to make things more organized and prevent confusion. Actions might get taken if the staff believes a user is crossing the line.

Aside from that, the number of presets allowed is probably defined in the source code, which means that it's most likely not possible to change it without some coding knowledge and work.

i just use multiple folders and swap them out as required.
The Japanese concept of wabisabi:
The closest concept in english would be 'rustic'
They might have an old thing, one example is a favourite bowl or dish, it's broken, pieces are missing, why fix it?  With gold and pieces from other dishes?
"Because it was my favourite & I like it"

The tutorial is broken, what im meaning is that i cannot see the pictures. its just spaces with a tiny [?]. meaning the file doesnt work.

(Also heads up i use a mac and we mac users have a lot of errors, and it seems that Imgur/TinyPIC connections are on our list of errors)

Imgur is allowed on our site, in fact it's the one we recommend to people

Unfortunately it looks as though the author of that tutorial is no longer active so until if/when they return there will be no way to get the images back. However, images aren't required to get it to work as there are still instructions written out
