I signed up and my name is in lowercase, how do I change it?
Unfortunately, this is still an unresolved issue, every member gets one free name change for that reason, and you have to change your name yourself in order to fix it.
Profile > Edit Profile > Personal > Display Name
And click 'Save Personal Settings' at the bottom.
How do I change my display name after changing it once?
In order to change your display name after the first time, you need to PM a administrator with the following template:
The template must be answered correctly in order for the name change to be complete. Once your new display name is accepted, you will be given a pass to change your name, you may be given the ability to change the name on your own but it must be in order of the template you sent to the administrator. If not, the username that you suggested shall be changed by the administrator you requested the change from.
The display name is the name that appears when you post...Keep in mind that this is not the username that is shown on your profile.
How do I change my avatar?
Profile > Edit Profile
I see members with a 150x200 avatar, but mine can only be 150x150, what do I do?
In order for your avatar size to exceed 150x150, you have to upload it to an external source (such as imgur) and link it when you change your avatar, instead of uploading it directly.
How do I get a 150x300 avatar?
Only staff members can have an avatar larger than 150x200
How do I change my signature?
Profile > Edit Profile > Personal
How do I create a thread?
At previous forums that I've been on, there was a reputation system, does this forum have that too?
Unfortunately, no.
Reputation in the long run is not an accurate representation of someone's actual reputation on the site, so it only causes fights and rep abuse, which is why we have chosen not to use it.
I want to add pictures and other things to my signature, but I don't see the BB code bar with the buttons, what do I do?
You can use BB code in your signature, however there is no BB code bar. If you wish to preview your signature first, you'll have to write it in a reply and then copy the code to your signature.
I see a music player below some members' mini profiles, how can I get this too?
To do so, Go to Profile -> Edit Profile -> Personal -> Scroll down to the bottom of the page and there will be a Music field right there.
Now to get the music to work properly you need to post the MP3 file there. If you already have one on the internet, do so, but if you don't have one you need to upload it to the internet first. To do so you need to upload the existing MP3 file from your computer to a hosting site, preferably kiwi6.com, that's the site I use. Now after you uploaded it you need the Direct Hotlink, then post it in the Music field. I don't know about other websites but to get it over kiwi6.com you just click the Share button over to the right after uploading and there will be the direct hotlink there for you to copy.
