[edit] Userboxes + Welcome

Those templates are called 'userboxes'. There has been quite a lot of controversy over them recently, so you might want to be careful about which ones you put on your page (generally avoid ones that contain opinions and things not related to Wikipedia (on my page the Opera one breaks that rule, but I think I've got away with it so far ;) . See Wikipedia:Userboxes for a page about them. Here is my slight variation of the standard welcome, which contains some useful links to help you get used to Wikipedia:

Your last post can be found in my archive (my talk page gets pretty busy, so things get moved off the main one into my archives for future reference). I managed to get the headings to clear the userboxes using {{-}} (a template, which I subst:). If you want a fancier layout your best bet is running across someone with a userpage like you want and either copying the code or asking them how they did it. Oh, and please remember to sign your talk page posts by typing ~~~~ or by clicking the signature button above the edit window. Cheers, Petros471 20:46, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
