toajomo Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 So I'm not sure if there's already a thread for this (if there is please link me to it) but I would like to know how to customize my posts. Signatures, the funky words with the name, the masks....it has been years since I've done this, so if someone could give me a refresher, let me know If you use correct grammar in your posts (or try hard to), place this in your signature.

fishers64 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 There are three ways to do this. The first is to make all of your posts a certain font, color, etc via this control panel. The second is to use the buttons on the box you use to enter posts to change font, color, etc. You will have to do this for each post, though, so it's commonly used to add special formatting for a certain post. The third is to use BBCode: see here for refrence. Clicking on the light switch on the upper-left-hand corner may make it easier to enter. This also has to be done for each post. A signature editor is here. For refrence, both the sig editor and the custom posts control can be found on your User CP, which is accessed via "My Settings" under the dropdown menu under your name. That is found in the forum top bar on the right next to the sign out button. Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reznas Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 the funky words with the name, the masks Looks like you're asking about the member title and yearly masks. The member title corresponds to your post rank, which changes depending on the amount of posts you have. The yearly masks, which are the spinning masks next to your proto bar, are indicators for how many years you've been on BZPower since you joined. For example, Windrider has this yearly mask: . This is the 11th yearly mask; thus, Windrider has been on BZPower for at least 11 years. You can find a more detailed explanation here in the Q&A Compendium. Make sure to check it out fairly often when you have a few questions. It may answer some of your questions. -Rez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I thought he was referring to the emoticon masks. You can find them by clicking on the in the post editing box, clicking show all, and scrolling down in that new window to find the mask you want. Click on the mask you want to add it to your post.

-Windrider- Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 And I thought you were referencing the pictures underneath the member title that Reznas explained. Check out the Premier Membership topic for info on how you can get rank images displayed. In any case, let us know if we've answered your questions, or if we're off the mark. Thanks!

Reznas Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) Thank you. In retrospect, I probably should have looked for the Q&A section first.Also, I wonder what my old bzp account has for a yearly mask... Have all of your questions been solved? If so, glad I could help. But really, it was mostly fishers and Windy who did all the work. No need to thank me. -Rez Edited October 15, 2014 by Reznas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
