[edit] Terrigal

Hi DBlandford See my response to your question at Talk:Gosford, New South Wales. Cheers, Andrew Kepert 01:21, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Request re signatures

Responding to request on Talk:Gosford, New South Wales ... there IS, as I expected a user preference for this. Just go to your preferences page, go to the User Data subpage and enter something against "Your Nickname (for signatures)". This makes ~~~ and ~~~~ expand to a redirected link as expected. Some people have figured out how to do quite strange things with their signatures (pictures, extra link to user talk page, etc), and I seem to remember reading how to do these somewhere - but I had no interest, so didn't pay attention.

[edit] A new Oxbridge user box

Dblandford...I am currently in the process of writing a user box for all of the colleges that are part of Oxbridge. This template is meant to replace your current college template. Please take a look at the work in progress and comment on it. My main concerns are college abbreviations and color choice. I am using scarf colors for the colleges. Thank you. - LA @ 17:13, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
