How do I ...? thread

...Interesting username.

But yeah, what Dog Dog 123 said. To elaborate, most requests to delete accounts entirely get denied, but those which go through have all their posts rendered as being posted by "Guest" instead of whatever their last username was.

I'd like to know, how do I send in articles on this site?

Main front page > under Site tab > Contact Us.

At least, I *think* that's what you do.

I've tried that, but I don't know how to get my doc. File into that textbox in the 'contact us' section.

Don't send it as a .doc; just send the words as-is.

I can send the words as is, but I can't include pictures. Also, the instructions for submitting an article tell me to send a doc. Or docx. file.

Oh, okay.

In that case, emailing a webmaster, admin or site staff directly would probably be your best bet. I'm pretty sure the Contact Us thing goes to a specific email address, but I'm not sure what, sadly.

Alternately, you could upload the file directly to one of a number of websites. I haven't needed to do so for a while, but when I did, I used uploadthis.co.uk

...I'm not actually sure if that site is still working. :/

I'll send you a PM, Ladon. Check your inbox.

How do I start a new social group?

I believe the requirements are the same as being able to join a clan (50 posts; 1 month, last I checked), after which you would then go here. This link can also be found on the Social Groups main page.

That sucks, the only Linux related group seems dead. Thanks.

Most groups are dead; Social Groups are a very undeveloped feature in vB3. (And there are currently no plans to upgrade further.)

Just a question for the graphic design forum, are we allowed to post gifs? And can we start a new thread for our own artwork

I don't see why not you can post gifs in the graphic design forum (unless you're the one who made them). Best to ask the Graphic Design mods via a pm for more info.

And you can definitely start a new thread in the artwork forum if you'd like to share some of your works with the rest of ZU. :)

Thank you! Yes I'm definitely the one who made them, I post most of my stuff at my Tumblr page but have a few Zelda things I've made. I'll send them a PM!

Just yesterday, there was a dropbox in the lower right corner, at least for the Dark Green skin, that listed all the forums, so I could jump straight to one without having to go back to the main page. Now it's gone. What happened to it?

try the bottom left

I think you misunderstood; Darth Yoshi was referring to the forum jump thing (or whatever it was called), not the thing which switches skins.

Not really a how to question, but someone on my Ignore List apparently sent me a message, but when I took him off, I still cant see it. Did it not go through somehow?

Eyaah, is anyone particularly good with signatures? I can't get my one right! I want it to look like this;



You know, with like the picture on the left and then the writing to the right. But when I use my limited Signature power to try and recreate that minus... Paint... it looks more like this;



I thought it'd be easier for someone to give me a hand if I popped the code in there.

I'M SO LOST AND CONFUSED, I feel like a Time Lord in a vacuum. Also, the first time I put "like this" I meant like how the signature looks in regard to the cascading (is that even the right word?) links, I'm not trying to make my signature look like a bunch of nothingness with white spaces spread about it.

(I was feeling lazy and just copied and pasted this from my Nayru post (HEY NAYRU PEOPLE) so some of the words might be a bit confusing and I might seem like a crazy person.)
