I took the liberty of helping you with your userboxes. You were missing the top and the bottom part... If it were a sandwich, it would be all meat with no bread. If you'd like specific pointers on what I did, I'd be happy to help out. On the other hand, if you would like me to put it back like I found it, I can do that too. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC) | I took the liberty of helping you with your userboxes.

Hello from you know who
I like your userpage. It be's cute. Just correct your grammer or people will think you're unintelligent (which I know you aren't :) )! I'm glad you finally looked here! I told you it was worth your while. You know, you should have called yourself Pinkwikigal or something! -Brightstar Shiner 22:01, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
Personal images
You currently have 3 personal images. The limit is 2. Please mark one of them for deletion so that you will comply with our standards. Thanks. — Has Matt? (talk) 13:56, 23 April 2006 (UTC) P.S. Check out the article for Homsar. There's a sweet image of him there that you can use. Plus, it won't count as a personal image.
User pages
Hey, just want to offer you a super-great tip. You tried to move a page to your user space, but it didn't quite go right. For a page to be in your user space it must be named "User:Wiki grrl/Name Of Page" like that, with the slash. Of course, it has to conform to the user space policy as well. So if you ever want to make a subpage, that's how you do it. Keep on tranglin'! - Qermaq - (T/C) 23:54, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
Hom(e)s(t)ar essay
Dear Wiki grrl, I just wanted to drop you a line to say that I read your Homestar vs. Homsar essay, and I think it shows you have a lot of heart and promise as a good wiki editor. Good prize! Don't be discouraged by the apparent setback. I'm glad you've saved it on your user page (and I don't see anything wrong with it being a user subpage, which I am about to say on the other talk page). Keep on tranglin'! — It's dot com 00:04, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Userbox tower
I took the liberty of helping you with your userboxes. You were missing the top and the bottom part... If it were a sandwich, it would be all meat with no bread. If you'd like specific pointers on what I did, I'd be happy to help out. On the other hand, if you would like me to put it back like I found it, I can do that too. — It's dot com 00:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
- What exactly did you do with the user boxes?
- A few housekeeping things first: Number A, it's customary to keep discussions in one place whenever possible. Most users keep an eye on pages where they leave comments (using the "watch" button above). Whenever you want to reply, just click edit, indent the text (using one more colon than the person before you), and type away. To see what I mean by using colons to indent, click edit to look at the source code below:
- Each line here
- is indented
- one more time than
- the line before it.
- one more time than
- is indented
Okay, on to the userboxes. The code for the userboxes uses three parts: (1) the top, (2) the userboxes themselves, and (3) the bottom, like this:
{{userboxtop}} | ← the top |
{{userbox}} | ← the actual userboxes (shown here simplified) |
|} | ← the bottom |
You left out the top and the bottom. (You had a bunch of extra spaces in there.) That's what I fixed. Hope this helps! Oh, one last thing... To sign your name on talk pages, type four tildes, like this: ~~~~, and the system will automatically put in your name and a timestamp, like this: User:It's dot com 03:44, 25 April 2006 (UTC).
