Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to 2007. Readers looking for serious articles will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) whatever you want.

 * Copy the following source code to your userpage:

The result should look like this:

If you want to post a different set of pictures to your userpage, ask me specifically. For example, if you want to post the comic at Portal:Comics to your userpage, I can help you with that. Shalom Hello 19:44, 9 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi Bigearedtiger, it's pretty simple to do. (I assume you mean that you'd like to show the current Featured picture of the day on your user page.)  You can add it to your userpage by including the right on your user page.  (Basically, when you include a template, you ask the Wiki software to include the text of another page in the current one.)  The template in this case is called POTD; to include it, simply place this text on your userpage:

 * This version will include something that's a little smaller than Shalom's solution. Iknowyourider (t c) 19:46, 9 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, and there's also Pic of the day, which is a bit in-between in size. Iknowyourider (t c) 19:47, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you, Shalom and Iknowyourider! I have now successfully put on the picture of the day. Thanks!
