Title: Various Forum Help Needed!
Post by: ForgottenWar on January 07, 2017, 11:20:41 pm
Frankly, I was unsure where to put this! As, my request has to do more with forums in general than specifically the FeralHeart forum. (Though, what I need will greatly assist me on online forums for groups based in FeralHeart.) So, if this post is better to be deleted and moved elsewhere, please tell me!


Alright! So, I am NOT experienced with forums in any way. I'm very awkward on them, and could really use some help. How DO people set up those gorgeous, extremely fancy character Biographies in perfectly formatted sliding boxes? How do people leave a piece of art as their signature? I would much rather be able to contact someone via FeralHeart itself, or some other media that I own to discuss this issue, as (once again) I am very awkward on the forum. Anyone who could help me get my bearings a little would be wonderful, as, I want to be able to set up a lovely profile and better understand and navigate this! Thank you!

You're not awkward at all, no worries!

To include images in your signature (or anywhere else), simply use this code:

Code: [Select]
[img]put image's link here[/img]
Not sure what you meant about the sliding boxes, though

Like this! Erh. It was done on a proboards forum, but these bios are really beautiful, and I wish to know how to do one!

As for sliding boxes I think they mean the moving photos Kiki. ^^''
(I'm not sure how to put code in a forum post)

Proboards uses coding which allows for threading, plotting, and character biography templates that you can edit while creating a post. I personally get mine from here: http://adoxographyv2.boards.net/

You'll have to create an account, but it's a proboards site so it's quick and easy. To find the templates you want, scroll down to "Templates". There you'll find templates for Applications (these are your character biography templates) with already titled boxes and whatnot. If you want blank templates that you can fill out with whatever you want, go to the "Threading" sub-board. :) Hope that's what you're looking for!
