Have a question about the forum? Check out this FAQ!
How do I post an image?
First, you need to host the image on an independent hosting site. I use ImageShack personally. Once the image is hosted, take the link and add the image code so that it looks like this...
[ img ]direct-link-to-image-goes-here[ /img ] ....except without the spaces.
You can also add the code by highlighting the link in your text and hitting the button that looks like a photo, between the globe and the envelope with arrows.
How do I post a link?
Just like an image, all you need to do is add the coding. For a plain clickable link to this forum, the coding looks like this...
[ url ]http://mylittleimposterpony.proboards.com/index.cgi[ /url ]
...except without the spaces again. It'll show up like this...
mylittleimposterpony.proboards.com/index.cgi
If you want your link to show up as something other than the URL itself, move the link inside the brackets like so...
[ url=http://mylittleimposterpony.proboards.com/index.cgi ]My Little Imposter Pony[ /url ]
...with the spaces within the brackets removed, it will show up like this...
My Little Imposter Pony
You can also bring up the link code by highlighting your link and clicking on the globe icon.
Can I change my name?
You may have noticed when creating your name that spaces and special characters aren't allowed. Or, maybe you don't need spaces or frills, but you want to change your name to something else entirely.
All you need to do is PM a staff member your new username, and we'll change it for you.
Adding spaces and such (as long as your username is still recognizable) can be done as many times as you want. However, full name changes (to something else entirely) can only be done once per account. Period. Make sure you pick something you can live with.
Can I have a custom user title?
Sure. Just PM any MLIP staff member and we'll hook you up. User titles are also given out at random when we get bored.
I'm not a fan of purple. What else ya got?
There's a few different colored skins available for the forum, and you can pick whichever one you like.
To change the forum skin to another color, go to your profile and click "Modify Profile". On that page, there will be an option that says "Select Skin". Pick the one you want, and click the "Modify Profile" button at the bottom.
You're doing it wrong. I have a better idea.
Awesome! The MLIP staff is always happy to have input from our members regarding the forum...good, bad or otherwise.
If you have a suggestion for the forum or think that something sucks, let us know. PM a staff member or post a thread in this subforum. We can't guarantee that we'll accomodate every single request, but we try very hard to keep our members happy and comfortable here.
If you still have questions, feel free to post a thread or PM any MLIP staff member. We're always happy to help!
