2004-11-28 [joshmolloy]: hi, im new here, what exactly do you do in this site?

2004-11-29 [Death is my friend]: uhh lets see... it's from my friend's website and it would most likely be in my description if that is what you are asking...

2004-11-29 [Sunrose]: you could try it..

2004-11-29 [Death is my friend]: ok... sorry if i confused you at all...

2004-11-29 [Solitiaum]: ok, add this page to the listing, please... How to Intigrate Other Stylesheets along with the description "A comprehensive tutorial on how to use stylesheets other than those offered on Elfpack. With screen captures."

2004-12-03 [hotdude69]: what if someone keeps harrassing you what do you do?

2004-12-03 [Sunrose]: no one is harassing you, you are harassing others. now stop doing that and no one will be mad at you either.

2005-02-02 [Beloved Promise]: how do you copyright protect a page?? You know so no one can steal the stuff on the page?? it's my wiki page

2005-02-02 [Sunrose]: Make it editable by owner only, it makes t harder to copy but not impossible. Or you could make a forum and make the wiki private. People who are members of the forum could still copy it though..

2005-02-02 [johanna's wings]: how do i make my own poll

2005-02-02 [Beloved Promise]: ok thanks sunrose!!

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: Safe House

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: ah thats why Safe Zone ^_^;;

2005-02-07 [Sunrose]: Oh wow....like completely copied...did the makers of the badge give permission? >.>

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: not COMPLETELY i did the font, and the colors and the bg design all my own

2005-02-07 [Sunrose]: Yea, so like completely copied except for some minor not so important details...it's still the same as on Elftown.

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: humph... doya want me to remove it?

2005-02-07 [Sunrose]: I wish to know if the creators gave approval :)

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: i didnt ask... didnt know it wasnt different enough to matter...

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: spose it doesnt matter though... being crew and whatnot i shouldve removed it when i became crew... make a better example than that -_-

2005-02-07 [Sunrose]: It's theft of at least the badge if you didn't ask for permission: that should be obvious.

2005-02-07 [Solitiaum]: itll be taken care of asap... time to go for now.

2005-02-25 [~!~GreenDay~!~]: umm how do u get a poll..... on a wiki page?

2005-03-06 [Beloved Promise]: how do you restrict access to your wiki?? (probably really easy to get but yeah) ([~!~GreenDay~!~] go to http://www.elfpack.com/poll-how-to.html) (Hope i don't get in trouble for that.... but yeah)

2005-03-06 [Sunrose]: [Beloved Promise]: you create a forum. then when you create the wiki, you assign the wiki to that forum and set it 'viewable by forummembers only'. Then you invite people to the forum, people you want to be able to see the wiki :)

2005-03-06 [Beloved Promise]: okies thank you!! you know you inform me of many things and it's helpful... thank you!! *hugs you*

2005-03-07 [Sunrose]: *^_____________^* thank you! :D

2005-03-11 [Beloved Promise]: a what??

2005-03-13 [Dwemer]: How can you put 2 images next to eachother?

2005-03-13 [Beloved Promise]: see the discussion on uploading art rules we had the same question there/

2005-03-16 [TruDevotionLMN]: How do you make an image bigger? My images are so small you can hardly see them but that is the way the upload in my description.

2005-03-16 [Solitiaum]: Now you have wiki uploading privs and can upload images directly to your wiki page.

2005-03-19 [Beloved Promise]: I have a question... kinda important at least to me and my friends... why are all the pictures in our descriptions gone??

2005-03-19 [Solitiaum]: Hm. second Time Im getting something like this. I see all the pictures in yuour description just fine. Are they red x's to you? Or just gone...

2005-03-19 [Beloved Promise]: well they weren't there last night which is when i asked so yeah

2005-03-19 [Solitiaum]: Ok. I got the 411 on the image problem. Something went whacky with [krill] last night and a bug ate a lot of the images everywhere, in badge slots and descriptions. [Hedda] has the bug under control, but isnt sure (as far as Im aware) if the images can be retrieved or not. You might need to reupload those images. BUT you wont be able to put an image in for your name slot anymore. he's disabled that function altogeher. Any questions?

2005-03-19 [Beloved Promise]: nopers... but my pics are back!! YAY!! *hugs Sair* Thanks

2005-03-19 [Solitiaum]: np ^_^

2005-04-02 [Freak03]: i gotta question

2005-04-02 [Solitiaum]: Ask away...

2005-04-02 [Freak03]: well i dont think it will matter b/c its not about elfpack its about the otha one

2005-04-06 [TruDevotionLMN]: Is there a way to put text on the sides of of a picture? How can I put pictures next to each other?

2005-04-06 [Solitiaum]: Text can be put to the side of a picture by just not hitting enter after closing the image tag. Same with putting two images next to one another.

2005-04-15 [Beloved Promise]: I gots a question (Hi mommy) how would you get the guards to put a note up on your house (like This member doesn't cyber or an announcement like this member was in a car accident) or something like that??

2005-04-15 [pirate`bunny]: Initgrate??? ;-) (tired of elfpack grey)

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: I'm needing help in my house..most of my images are "invisable"..tho the links are still intact. Also i,m unable to upload Anything...It's been that way for Days! Thank you!!

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: Where else can i go for help about this Problem??

2005-04-25 [Solitiaum]: Actually that might be in connection with the work [Hedda] is doing with the new server. Wait a couple more days and if it persists, post the problem on the to the crew forum. We dont really ban people for pointing out genuine problems; its the morons we dont like...

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: Yeah..I've been here along time...It's been like a week already..and i can't use the site. If you can't upload to get the properties, how can you reenter the image?

2005-04-25 [Solitiaum]: Post the issue to the To the Crew forum and they'll take care of it...

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: This is like "Twighlight Zone" ..Other people say they can see my pics...tho i can't. I wish someone could check it...

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: I did post it...they just give me assinine jokes back...jeeze..i knew them all in elftown..you'd think they turned into royalty here!

2005-04-25 [birdsong]: I'd like someone to check my house...kids are viewing nudity in my top windows..cause i can't see to change them...

2005-04-25 [Erwin]: hey i was wondering how pics are selected to be put on the mainstreet... like the ones at the bottom of the scrool bar?

2005-05-09 [Arms Wide Open]: how do you do that?

2005-05-09 [djxmonster]: Do what? Put it in your description? (1)Upload the pic like you would any other image, (2)then right click the image and click "properties"... highlight the "url", right click and hit "copy" (3) edit your description and put the url in an IMG tag (<IMG:url here> )

2005-05-09 [Arms Wide Open]: ok thanks :)

2005-05-09 [djxmonster]: No Problem :)

2005-05-09 [Beloved Promise]: or you can put them in the image description by following those directions but without changing your description.. meaning Just add the IMG tag into the box under the pics already on yrou hosue

2005-06-26 [Funny Bunny]: Okay, thank you.

2005-06-29 [Forgotten_Time]: eh, probably a stupid question, but what are these "Cool points" and "Anti-Cool points"?

2005-06-30 [*~SopHie~*]: Umm.. how do you report someone?

2005-06-30 [djxmonster]: Gah... doesn't anyone else answer questions on here?? :P [Forgotten_Time]: See <URL:news.html?nrs=69> //[*~SopHie~*]: There is a button on each house that says "Report this member to the Guards" (Just above their username)

2005-06-30 [Beloved Promise]: I sent [*~SopHie~*] a message telling her about it... I just didn't know if normal users could answer questions on here... *shrugs*

2005-06-30 [djxmonster]: Assuming you know the correct answer, feel free :)

2005-07-01 [Chaos in paradise]: short video clips

2005-07-01 [Beloved Promise]: u mean like the ND thing a lot of people have?

2005-07-02 [bortevekk]: Uhm, I have a question, but I have no idea where to ask it... so, eh, since this place is called 'help', is it ok to ask here? or, can someone at least tell me where I should go to ask? I would be eternally grateful...

2005-07-02 [Beloved Promise]: what's the question?

2005-07-02 [bortevekk]: Well, it's about the coolpoints... I've gotten one and given away two, but still it says zero on my page... and that is hardly normal, is it? so I was just wondering if I needed to do something for them to show up, or who to talk to to get it fixed...

2005-07-02 [bortevekk]: it showed the right amount yesterday, but sort of disappeared today... but if you click on the coolpoints link or the anticoolpoints link, they're still there... sort of...

2005-07-02 [Beloved Promise]: yeah did you change your description at all/

2005-07-02 [bortevekk]: yes, I think so... do they disappear then? do excuse my ignorance, I know very little of this place... =/

2005-07-02 [Beloved Promise]: yeah it happens it happens to all of us.

2005-07-02 [bortevekk]: well, that's good news then^_^ I was afraid something was wrong, but if it's normal then all is great.... thanks for the help^_^

2005-07-02 [Beloved Promise]: No problem

2005-07-20 [Kitty Daemon]: what are cool/ati-coolpoints? how do you get them? what do the do/good for?

2005-07-20 [Card Summoner]: same question here

2005-07-20 [Beloved Promise]: the cool and anti cool points are just for fun. You give cool points out but that gives you anti cool points. And cool points are given by people to you. (not sure if that's a great explaination but it's the best one i can come up with right now)

2005-07-20 [Solitiaum]: Cool points are a way to reward cool behavior without risking someone stealing the banner/badge you might have made. You can use them to give to your friends, or the winners of a contest, or even just because you're bored. Each time you give a cool point, you recieve an anti-coolpoint. This is not to say that you are not cool, but merely says that they are the opposite of coolpoints. Everything is just for fun, but getting a coolpoint from someone like myself, who has a lot but has not given a lot, means a bit more because its more rare...

2005-07-20 [Card Summoner]: I see

2005-07-20 [insanitysetin]: How is everyone.. thats what it means.. and can someone explain the coolpoints to me.

2005-07-20 [Beloved Promise]: Just read Alysandra's post above and that should explain it

2005-07-20 [Solitiaum]: (Which was officially added to the description on everyone's coolpoints page, woohoo! And then [Hedda] gave me a coolpoint, hehe...)

2005-07-20 [Beloved Promise]: yay!!

2005-07-24 [KuraiSenshi]: how do u make ur poll multi vote able? can u do that with the poll in ur house or only the wiki polls?

2005-07-24 [Beloved Promise]: I think it's only in Wiki polls. At least it's always only been in Wiki polls for me.

2005-07-24 [KuraiSenshi]: dang be darn it lol

2005-07-24 [Beloved Promise]: lol

2005-08-03 [LostIdentity]: how do u send a private message?

2005-08-03 [Beloved Promise]: go to a persons house scroll all the way to the bottom (underneath the civil status and all that) and there should be a box that says "send a message to (username)" Type your message then hit send message...

2005-08-09 [birdsong]: My house is not working-can't do Anything with it...ideas? help?

2005-09-02 [Yes, I've left.]: can you delete images from your house.....?

2005-09-03 [Kaos101]: Yes, you can delete your images...simple click on 'upload new (or delet current) image' and click on 'upload new image'

2005-09-04 [Chibi]: My image won't delete, and when I go to the delete place its not on there.

2005-09-04 [Yes, I've left.]: thnx so much!

2005-09-06 [Katt]: can you see other peoples messages they send and recive? and if ya can how do ya do it?

2005-09-06 [Kaos101]: I'm pretty sure their isn't. That would draw up several privacy issues. You can only look at the ones done by you

2005-09-07 [cHot]: ok, well my sister has a problem so she asked me to ask someone, lol,shes trying to get into elfpck but they said shes baned, so she got banned for no reason, but i went to her page and it says shes logged in, but she cant get in, she hasnt come on in about 2 months and now shes haveing problems, can anyone help?

2005-09-07 [Kaos101]: well if you are automattically logged out then it won't say that you are, but you are. If she was banned then you should probably talk to a guard or [Sunrose] or someone about it

2005-09-07 [Beloved Promise]: The same thing happened to a friend of mine but he tried logging on from another computer and it worked. And on sunrose's house it says to talk to [Whim]

2005-09-07 [Kaos101]: Well then talk to [Whim]

2005-09-27 [Mataza_71191]: how do u put mulptle pages on a wiki??

2005-09-27 [Beloved Promise]: just create a new wiki that has to do with what's on it. and put a link from the original wiki page to the new one... make sense?

2005-09-27 [Eyes of the Reaper]: This may sound like a stupid question but: what exactly does blocking someone do?

2005-09-27 [Beloved Promise]: makes it so that you get no more messages from them... they will not know that you have blocked them unless you tell them... Which i find rather boring because it's fun to have ppl talk to my friends and ask me why i have blocked them...

2005-09-27 [Eyes of the Reaper]: Ah ok... Thank you! :)

2005-09-27 [Beloved Promise]: no prob

2005-09-27 [Beloved Promise]: what? *ish lost at the question*

2005-09-27 [Mataza_71191]: ????how do u put it on the wiki list..is what i said

2005-09-27 [Beloved Promise]: Okies... ya sorry was thinkin of sumthin else... But you just go to the page and put the wiki on there but make sure you put it in alphabetical order. and you only have to put the original (first) wiki page on there. Not all of the extra pages... What's the wiki called?

2005-09-27 [Kaos101]: YU-GI-OH Duals just like that

2005-09-27 [Mataza_71191]: so copy and put on the wiki page??

2005-09-27 [Kaos101]: yes..just make sure you do alphabetical order and put in under the subject you think best fits

2005-09-27 [Mataza_71191]: ok.......

2005-09-28 [Beloved Promise]: u'll have to type YU-GI-OH Duals@wiki but with the [] around it...
