From Homestar Runner Wiki

Welcome to The Homestar Runner Wiki!

Hello, and welcome to The Homestar Runner Wiki! This is the best place, as you've probably noticed, to learn about anything and everything Homestar Runner. There are a couple of things you should read up on before you really start jumping in and editing -

• Take a look at the Wiki Standards to see how things work around here.
• Read up on how to edit at the Editing Help section.
• Read the FAQ.
• Read the MediaWiki User's Guide.
• If you're looking for more interaction with the users, our Chat Channel is always available, and we also have a Wiki Forum.
• The Stick is a place where you can find out some projects to do or committees to join, if you choose to.
• If you're still confused, check out the Introduction page.

If you have any questions, ask them up in the HelpDesk, me, or any other of the sysops or admins ('sysop' is just a special term for someone who watches over the wiki and has a few more rights than other users). I'm sure you'll catch on quickly, and all of the users are very nice here. Feel free to delete this message when you're done reading it, and I hope you stick around and join our team. Have fun! —FireBird|Talk, The Homestar Runner Wiki Welcoming Committee

Creating an online signature

Hi, Ampi. You asked how to create a signature. What you can do first is look at these pages ([1], [2], and [3]) for some ideas/examples. Next, click on this link: User:Ampi/sig2 and make your custom siggy. Feel free to use some of the code from other users as long as you don't copy directly off someone else. After you create your sig, head over to "preferences" and where it says Your nickname (for signatures), put {{User:Ampi/sig}} in the box and click "Save Preferences". From then on, you can use your sig by using the button or typing ~~~~. Good luck, hope this helps! —THE PAPER ^PREEEOW 01:52, 28 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Hey Ampi. It's also important in your preferences to make sure that "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" is checked. Also, you can hit "Show preview" to test the look of your sig as you're editing it without creating a new entry in the Recent changes — It's dot com 02:36, 28 Jul 2005 (UTC)

On the topic of your sig, I noticed it was giving you a bit of trouble, so I fixed it up for you. -- Tom 21:25, 16 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Hey thanks, now my date and time on my sig won't look
