Hey Furon! This will be our discussion page for your adoption. Ask any questions you want by placing a question in it's own section, by titling the section using the format ==title here==, and then putting the question right below it. Please don't erase answered sections, as I would like to keep them. If this page becomes big, I'll archive some of it. So that you know when I answer your questions, please hit the "watch" button that's to the right of the "edit this page" button at the top. Whenever the page is updated, it will appear in your watchlist.--TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:12, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Basics

I don't know if you've read it yet, but some of the basic things can be found here. Feel free to ask me about any of it or to ask me about anything else.--TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:12, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Templates and Status

Thanks! By the way, how do you make those templates of state you live in, and what school and how old u r. Also, how do you make that status (in or out) template? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Furon (talk • contribs) 13:20, 18 March 2007 (UTC).--Furon 13:20, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

The templates are called user boxes. You can find them all at WP:UBX. The status box is just a transclusion from a subpage of mine. It can be manually updated, but I use this. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:27, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Change Name

How do you change your link name to your new desired name because I have a new transfer page, but the link is the same./?--Furon 00:44, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't understand what you mean, but you have misunderstood how changing your name works. To change your name, you must submit a request, and a bureaucrat will rename you. Redirecting you userpage to another does not make you that user. It seems the user of the page you redirected to has a user account to match it, but it has made no edits. Because of this, you can go to WP:CHU/U, and request a rename using the appropriate template. Then you will be able to log into your account as that user (Roxas). All the edits you've made will now say your new name, even if they were from before the rename. Also, please ask all questions on the adoption page. I'm going to move this there soon. --TeckWiz is now R ParlateContribs@(Let's go Yankees!) 00:57, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

--Furon 19:47, 25 April 2007 (UTC)==Yeah...== I don't get it. The only userpage for Roxas was me!!! Whats up with the usurb or whatever??? I am CONFUSED X 534,048,283!!!.

An account can exist without having a userpage. The account exists, but has made no edits. Since it hasn't, you can go to WP:CHU/U and make a request. Then you can be User:Roxas, have that userpage, and log in as that user. Once again, moving your userpage doesn't change your username, which is why you've still been logging in as Furon. --TeckWiz is now R ParlateContribs@(Let's go Yankees!) 20:39, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I have made one, but it is crappy. God help me.--Furon 21:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC) Did I mention we are somewhat similar?

[edit] Images

Hey, how the heck do you get pictures onto pages???--Roxas 01:04, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Just link them like you would a normal page: [[Image:ABCD]]. --TeckWiz is now R ParlateContribs@ (Let's go Yankees!) 01:54, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
