Help:Userboxes

From Simpedia

This page shows how to use and make userboxes. For the Official Userboxes to place on your page, go to Official:Userboxes. Do NOT use the userboxes demonstrated here as these are examples only. Once you've created it please put the following template at the bottom of the userbox so the Sysops can see if it will fit on the Official:Userboxes page or to edit it a little, [[Category:Unclassified Userboxes]]

Many users choose to add userboxes to their user pages. These boxes are arranged in a tower-like formation to give visitors information on the user. Simpedia works using the same complex codes as Wikipedia to make userboxes.

for example:

{| cellspacing="0" style="width: 236px; background: #D1E3F0; border:solid black 1px; margin: 1px;"
| style="width: 45px; height: 45px; background: #6699FF; text-align: center" | [[Image:Nightlife_logo.jpg|45x45px]]
| style="font-size: 8pt; padding: 2pt; line-height: 1.25em;font-color: white" | This user has<br>
[[The Sims 2 Nightlife]].
|}

Will look like this:

This user has The Sims 2 Nightlife.

You can also use a template so it takes up less room:

{{User:Supuhstar/Userboxes/Nightlife}}

And it will look exactly like the other one

This user has The Sims 2 Nightlife.

To put them in a userbox, use this:

{{userboxtop}}
{{User:Supuhstar/Userboxes/Nightlife}}
|}

It will look like this:

Userboxes This user has The Sims 2 Nightlife.
