I Have a couple questions 1. How do you get and avatar? 2. can I change what i want to say at the bottom each post? -navajo10

1. Go to the Siggy Mall in Check Out My Equine Art, and ask someone to make you an avvie

2. If you mean your signature, yes! To do that, you go to your Control Panel and go to Edit Signature. There you can either type what you want it to say, or put in a banner

Hope I helped! :)

Check out the "My Equine Art" forum. There are a few banner shops to choose from in there.

and when i post something, why doesnt my profile pic show up?? i have one, but it only shows up when im on my profile thingy.

Your profile picture and your avatar are two different things; your avatar is what shows up when you post :)

Hey, I'm new and I need help:D So can you change your username? I made a very stupid one because I was totaly brain dead that day, and couldn't think of anything creative... So can I change it? Lol

. nevermind. lol.

But still, I don't think this should be stickied if there is nothing on the original post. xD At least edit in "for minor issues or questions that you don't want to create a whole new thread for" xD

how do you check your topics so then you can see what people are saying?

RE: New members or people that need help...

Community Moderator — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 16:01:10 GMT

Look in Recent Posts for the most current Siggy Mall and make a request for a banner there. Or, if you happen to notice that someone has mentioned that they make banners in their signature you could probably send them a PM.

RE: New members or people that need help...

~StitchingWounds~ — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 15:58:44 GMT

Hi! I just got my account today, and I was wondering if anyone knew if this site using BB coding, or Html coding, I'm a bit of a techie wizard person, so jut tell me if I'm confusing you,, and I'll shut up my complicated mouth and use simpler terms. Also is there anyway to change your signature, I just joined to day and I already want to change mine.....
Thanks,
Rissa-Chan[/quote]

Pretty sure it uses html.. go to control panel and "edit signature" to change it :)[/quote]

Thanks! :D

Right, so I know a lot of people have problems making quotes work, so I made a mini-tutorial. Meph did a way better job, but that was in a topic some time ago, and the mods have deleted it.
When you first click quote, it'll look like this:

See the spaces in between paragraphs, where poster hit return? You need to delete those so that it looks like this:

If you don't delete those spaces, it will post like this:

After you've deleted the spaces, it will post like this:

Make sure the IF code is correct, if it looks like this:

It will still post like this:

No matter how long or short the post is, even if it just looks like this:

-Hoof pick
-Body Brush

If you quote it, it needs to look like this in the box before you hit post reply:
[quote.]-Hoof pick -Body Brush[/quote.]
(don't put the periods in, I just had to do that because I didn't want to take a screen shot. xP)

It can be a serious pain, especially if it's a really long list or something, but if you want your quotes to work, this will do the trick. If it still won't work, double check it and make sure you deleted all of the spaces.
I credit Mephistopheles for this idea, and teaching me this wonderful little trick.

Only the moderators can move topics. Send us a pm if you need to move a topic, but try to remember where you want the topic when you make the original post. Hope that helps!

RE: New members or people that need help...

horsegirl_4 — Thu, 26 Mar 2009 13:50:19 GMT

how do you 'move' a topic?

i see some topics in Horse Talk, and then they'll move them to say, Health, Grooming, and Tack. and the little envelope on the side that identifies the topic as either a hot topic or a poll, it says 'moved topic'...

ive needed to move topics before, but i dont know how :P

how do you change the title of a topic you started?

I just started yesterday and I was wondering...
this might sound really stupid, but is siggy short for signature?
and if anyone could PM me and like tell me about all of this stuff, thatd be great. thankss =D

Yes, siggy/sig is short for signature.

Try looking at the FAQ in horse talk that Amber made it should help you out with the basics.

We can't delete posts =P
The html codes will stay that way when you type them, but once you click update, they should disappear, and you will just have bolded/underlined/italic/centered text.[/quote]

Oh, thanks!

Hey, I was wondering how you delete posts... I clicked the delete button before and it said that there was an error and I couldn't access that page for some reason. Is there another way or something? And also, when I write up my siggy, it still shows the HTML codes. How do you get rid of them while also keeping all of the pretty modifications on there (i.e., size, font, et cetera).

um i've always wondered how many posts it takes to get like a new blue box...new member, junior member..ect. thx

I'm pretty sure it's in the FAQ, but anyways, it's:
Starting Member - 0-49
New Member - 50-99
Junior Member - 100-499
Average Member - 500-999
Senior Member - 1000-1999
Advanced Member - 2000+
You shouldn't really worry about member level though. It doesn't mean anything important...

^^Mhm.

I am not new but i need help on makeing quotes...How do u get it so u have a white quote box with the quotiee's name on the top? and how do u make multipul quotes like haveing to ppl's quotes? Thanks for your help!

The quote button shoulder work, and if not you can use the IFCode shortcuts on teh side of the post boxes and use the quote ones. Other wise I don't know how. I've never had any trouble with them before.
