My (only) userbox

No.This user hates these userbox things.

I think this one sums up my opinions on the matter nicely. --humblefool® 21:59, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Ghost towns

Here ya go . .

This user is fascinated by Ghost towns.

Or this for those of you who thought . . .

This user thinks Steve Irwin was absolutely asking for it.

Just a simple one that I thought was a feat worth mentioning. By the way, the pic is free. H-BOMB 12:28, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Zebra Finch userbox

I LOVE my little zebra finches, but sadly, the only userboxes for bird owners are cockatiels and parrots. I don't even think they have parakeets. I am new to userboxes, so can someone make a userbox that says "This user is proud to own Zebra Finches", and use this=====>

as the image?

How about this: {{User:UBX/zebrafinch}} I didn't know what colors to use, so just let me know if you'd like different ones. —Mira 21:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

This user is proud to own Zebra Finches.

Nice picture, but it's too hard to make out in the userbox. Axeman89 04:55, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

True. I've tried a pars pro toto Approach, it's only a sketch (to be found {{here)}}:

This user is proud to own Zebra Finches.

Me personally, I'd go for a user box with only one picture, and I'd take the one showing the tail (as its pattern is the essence of the bird, isn't it?) or a section of the wing (this looks great, like an abstract painting: . Colours of the rest of the box (fonts, backgrounds, lines) are then to be adjusted according to the dominant colours of the icon. The userbox doesn't need to show everything as long as it makes people interested in Zebra finches.This could be made into a beautiful user box if you don't insist on showing the whole bird.

Chappelle's Show Userbox

There should definately be a Chappelle's Show userbox. It should probably say "This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch." or something similar with the initials "CS" in the box. The colors could also be red and black with white lettering. I'm horrible at making userboxes, otherwise I'd make it myself. This is my attempt at it:

CS	This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch...

Yeah, that's pretty bad...Doodoobutter 21:20, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I fixed it so the text actually shows up and I changed the link to the chappelles show page instead of the list of skits. I don't know if you like it or not. - Vozz 21:11, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

CS	This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch...

Hey thanks! That's really good...but I think that "Rick James" should lead to the sketch since "CS" already leads to the Chappelle's Show page Doodoobutter 14:35, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

I think the first one was funnier.BrainiacOutcast 00:03, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Here's my fixed userbox:

CS	This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch...

Hope everyone likes it... Doodoobutter 17:05, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Try this for all-white lettering:

CS	This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch...

Andrew Levine 22:42, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Here's my final final one...

CS	This user thinks he's Rick James, bitch...

Junior State of America Userbox

I would use a userbox with the Junior State of America logo + text embossed, such as "This user is a member of the Junior State of America" or something. Pat Nosker 03:51, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

The use of any copyrighted logo in a template violated fair use policy and will be deleted. Only logos in the public domain/free-to-use may be used in userboxes. DJR (T) 23:29, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, what about "JSA" In red text on the left? Pat Nosker 03:45, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Attempt at JSA Userbox:

JSA	This user serves as a student-representative of the JSA Junior State of America.

If this is OK, could it be made official?Pat Nosker 03:53, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

There's no "official" status granted to userboxes. By creating the code, you've made it about as official as it's going to get. —Mira 07:03, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

The words "JSA" are really hard to read. If you're going to have it link, then I would suggest changing the color to something different..because links are always blue(as far as I know) 75.5.44.182 23:25, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Animaniacs Userbox

It's one of the greatest animated shows of all time. Here's my idea for an Animaniacs userbox...

'	This user is zany to the max!

I think I did a pretty good job this time...Doodoobutter 00:16, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, but you can't use fair use images anywhere other than articles. You'll have to find a non-fair use image or some form of text to use instead. —Mira 05:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Ok, thanks...do you happen to know where I could find an Animaniacs picture that's in the public domain, though? I don't think there is any (I've loooked), but just in case... Doodoobutter 17:32, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

I wouldn't know, myself, and I also think it's unlikely that there are any. —Mira 20:00, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks anyway, but here's my new Animaniacs userbox:

A	This user is zany to the max!

Metroid Prime Hunters

Someone should do a box saying "This user plays Metroid Prime Hunters on-line. Friend code is XXXX XXXX XXXX"

Do you have any images?--Mac Lover ^Talk 03:26, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Maybe we could make ones like that for all Nintendo Wi-fi games. -- ~PinkDeoxys~ 20:48, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Geofiction

Here's a userbox that could be made for lovers of geofiction:

Quizilla Userbox

Under Wikipedia:Userboxes/Computing, this userbox could be added for members of Quizilla:

User is Sick

is this ok?

Sick	This user sick and must not be approached

Killswitch Engage

It should be "This user is sick...", you forgot to add an "is."

Sick	This user is sick and must not be approached

There. --Penguinofhonor 22:29, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Body Modification

I noticed that there are no body-modification userboxes, and I just couldn't let that go. Once I find proper images, I will do userboxes for scarification, corsetry, tooth art, and dermal implants.

This user is interested in or has tattoos.

This user is interested in or has piercings.

Quotations

There's nothing more that people want when they have a nice quotation:

"My eyes might be closed, but my brain is on red alert!" -Roxy, from Hannah Montana.

Red Alert

Sweaty?

"Genius is 99% perspiration and 1% inspiration." -Thomas Edison.

Bibliomaniac15 00:14, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

If you don't mind, I'll add a quote I once read on my old school's planner to this idea:

cake<candles"You know you're old when the candles cost more than the cake." -Bob Hope

Userbox_add_request

Hi, user nathanrdotcom recently got into a big fight with the admins, and a userbox that he created for me under his user space was deleted as well. Is there anyway that someone can just formalize this user box for me rather than using the "german user box solution"? If there is no way to formalize the submission, please someone, just add this for me in their space. Thanks! Also, please start the category by almater thing for RCSI as well. Thanks you so much!

RCSI	This user attends or attended RCSI.

zatch bell

I really like Zatch Bell, and I thought if these userboxes could be of any use. I think these would go under Wikipedia:Userboxes/Anime I don't know any images that are legal to put on these userboxes, and then again I wouldn't know how. So instead of the character pictures, I've put their spell names. Thank you. Kyo cat 00:16, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Userboxes

Zaker!This user's mamodo child is Zatch Bell.

Giga La Seoshi!This user's mamodo child is Tia, or Tia the Tomboy.

Could you make one for Tia? -- ~PinkDeoxys~ 00:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, I'll make one for Tia. But it won't have her picture, only the name of her spell, like the others. Hmm.. what were her spells again? :o Ah, well, I'll make one. And one for dear Kanchome as well! I just hope it's not boring for you. Thanks for the idea! And just so you know, I've already made a code thing for the userboxes up there in my userspace. {{User:Kyo cat/Brago}} and {{User:Kyo cat/Zatch Bell mamodo}} Kyo cat 01:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Hispanic American Userbox?

I'm surprised none exists as of yet. I'm an American of predominantly Mexican and Spanish extraction and I would love to acknowledge my Latina-ness via userbox. I'm a huge fan of userboxes and try to get every single one I can, but this one, which is one of the first ones I'd have snapped up, has yet to exist. So, how about it, those of you who are more adept at creating userboxes than I am? (Krushsister 02:42, 14 October 2006 (UTC))

The Sopranos

I wanna make a bunch of Sopranos boxes. Is there an easier way than the template I am using below? And once I get the cotent written for it, how does it become a simple command for everyone to use?

I'm quite proud of this userbox. I made it because there is an existing userbox in the gallery here for users who play the Metroid series, but none for Metroid Prime series users.

Asian History interests

Why aren't there any userboxes for history in Asian countries? Can someone whip up some? I'm working on a Japan one since I've got some nice photos of Japan I can edit. Tiakalla 08:39, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Hallo! Hey, maybe I can help you out! I think I can make some userboxes on Asian History, if you provide the photos. I just need to know what kind of Asian history and/or what to put in the userbox! And glad to see you're using my tia userbox on your userpage! ¡Adios! er... Sayonara! Kyo cat 01:19, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

I've only been to Japan, so I don't have any photos for other countries, although I suppose I could trim another one for a general Asian history pic. Though Wiki's probably got some icons of various countries that are free-use that could be used. And you're welcome, Tia's my nickname so gotta show my support. :) Tiakalla 06:26, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Represent Your High School!!!

PHHSThis user is a student of Parsippany Hills High School.

I've noticed some high school students here and there on Wikipedia, and just like some colleges have their own userboxes, why can't high schools have their own as well? Students who go to colleges feel like they "belong" to the college that they are a student of, and high school students feel the same way about their high schools. This one is for my high school, but I don't know the code for light blue, so for right now I have to use dark blue. If anyone can tell me it would be greatly appreciated.

I don't believe you're allowed to use those images in them, as they're fair-use, not free-license or what have you. You could try just making the boxes color-themed to their outfits instead. Having said that, I'll pick up one or two when they're fixed. Tiakalla 06:26, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

ALF userbox

With all the different userboxes out there for TV shows, I was almost insulted to find none for my favourite sitcom. So, I've decided to make one myself:

ALFThis user is an honorary citizen of Melmac.

As well, a category of "Wikipedians who like ALF" should be made if there is enough interest, and said category could then be attached to the userbox by someone who knows the proper code. Keith Davies Lehwald 15:53, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
