Userpage border
Do you think you could add a red border to my userpage, going around the outside and dividing my big top image from whats below? -- Lego@lost 03:53, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, this has nothing to do with this section but wow yuo've finally archived! --Lego@lost 03:54, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Mmmmm... I don't have a full border I is broken In some areas, Why's That? -- Lego@lost 04:10, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I run on Internet Explorer 6, Your borders display fine, and also my text is smaller, Do you know anything that could overcome this? In the meantime I'm probably going to have to delete the border or change it, my page is muddled -- Lego@lost 04:27, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Screenshot on Stephen Colbert
Hi -- I saw you added a screenshot to Stephen Colbert, but I can't figure out from the description whether it's from the Daily Show or the Colbert Report. What was the dramatic encounter about anyway? I've been told screenshots aren't fair-usable unless there's significant discussion of the content of the image in the article, so I'd like have a better idea what's going on there. :) -- (Lee)Bailey(talk) 03:24, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, I've seen it now, and boy do I love Colbert/Stewart crossovers. :) Thanks for the screen -- I'll probably try and resize it a bit eventually, but I think it's a nice shot. -- (Lee)Bailey(talk) 01:33, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Image request
Could you make one of those big images with my username on it for me? --S-man 11:42, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Noob Trouble
Hi MoP,

You welcomed me all the way back in February and said if I had any questions, I could come here and ask. I've run into a bit of a problem over on the Auroville page and am not sure what to do next. I've had trouble keeping it NPOV, and there is an anonymous POV-pusher editing without any apparent regard to my repeated requests for discussion of the problem on both the page's talk page and his/her own. What do I do? I can't just keep reverting it, can I? I'm really trying to create a better page, but this particular user is making it rather difficult. I thought about Mediation Cabal, but since the user isn't responding to me at all, I doubt s/he would respond to that either. Suggestions? Thanks, --TurabianNights 02:47, 24 August 2006 (UTC)


 * He's at it again :( How do we go about reporting it?--TurabianNights 18:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

Vandalism?
Hi MOP, if one checks the recent history of the Auroville  page, it becomes quite obvious that someone is bent on re-pasting a lot of negative falsehood, trashing a struggling article with stuff that as the article grows is even contradicted internally in the article. Is there a remedy? Thanks.Earlgray 02:41, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Master of Puppets, thank you for your reply. It's good to know you're monitoring. And bike riding for two days! Great Earlgray 14:58, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Ummm
I have a little bit of a problem with your guestbook. I put in an edit and then I'm not sure where it went. Do you think you could format it so the whole thing will be visible at once? Ruff Bark away!

Curious
I just found a user named MasterOfPuppets. He has all of 20 edits though, and no warnings, so I don't think it's a malicious imitator or anything. Just FYI. --Fang Aili talk 21:31, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

A Couple Formatting problems
Hey I got a reccomendation that you are the best with userpages. After visiting yours, I think I found the right place. I copied some text from Leroyencyclopediabrown's page and I had some problems. He left, that's why I chose it (and I like it). I decided to take it a step further and add some different colored text (white) but it only worked on part of the userpage. I wanted to make the text (and maybe the titles) white, and I also had some problems changing the background color of the page. Can you help me make the text white and change the backgrond color? So few people know how to do this, and I could really use some help.--Clyde Miller 22:07, 9 September 2006 (UTC)


 * It looks totally awesome (I hope that doesn't sound too cliche). If the links or text is stopping you you can delete all the text. I have the raw text saved on my computer so don't worry about messing with it. I'm not sure why the links are acting weird though.--Clyde Miller 01:01, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You've done way more than I thought possible. I may add some more info or whatever, but everything else is great. If you are bored and it's not too much work, a hide/show thing with my userboxes would be cool. Could you help me with that? --Clyde Miller 01:08, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey I was trying to add my current projects back in and I had some problems. What am I doing wrong? I think this is a good lesson becuase I am always adding or removing sections from my userpage and I need to figure out how to edit it (so I don't have to bother you). --Clyde Miller 01:59, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

The userboxes look great. You have voiced continuing concern on the weirdness of my page, so I'm sorry if it's caused you a lot of trouble. You don't have to add anything else in if you don't want. Everything looks good, and I'll figure out how to put anything else in if I want to. I'll just have some fun getting aquantited with my cool and improved userpage. Thank you. --Clyde Miller 02:21, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much for adding the talk page and userboxes, and a talk page template would be neat. I don't want to push your courtesy too far, but it sounds cool to have. Your ideas have been really good so far, so do what you think is cool. --Clyde Miller 02:38, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Wow. It's done then. You have my deepest thanks. I guess there isn't really any way to ever repay you, but if you ever need a favor, let me know. --Clyde Miller 02:54, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

Status indicator
Hi, could you please tell me how I can get my online/offline status to show on my user page? I searched for the template on your UP, but it's waay to complex. -- Chodorkovskiy  (talk)  09:12, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
 * First of all, thanks a bunch for going to the trouble of typing all that up and changing the username accordingly. Second, I am also having trouble with step 5. I left the status link on my UP and, like in the below case, nothing happened. -- Chodorkovskiy  (talk)  05:43, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I tried it with a template before and yes, I even tried clicking on the images in the status changer (assuming it's the images I need to click on). I'm really sorry for all the comotion; feel entirely free to answer or not at your own time. -- Chodorkovskiy  (talk)  14:22, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

2 questions
Hey again MOP, firstly I second what User: Chodorkovskiy wants from you (your online/ofline status thing) above. And secondly what ever happened to your userpage picture? -- Lego@lost EVIL, EVIL! | 19:31, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm experiencing trouble with step 5, I don't get that part, I added the link on my userpage (It isn't there right now) and it just comes up with:

User:Legolost/Status


 * This is really hard to follow, and also you mentioned something about the text being wrong, did you not? Do you think you could insert it for me? Oh yeah, when I said above: whatever happened to your userpage picture, I meant yours, but glad to no whats happening to my picture; and I've got a 'backup' picture right now, until you get around to creating a good one. Get back to me when you can. Cheers -- Lego@lost EVIL, EVIL! | 03:49, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Need to catch up
My, your wiki edits are really starting to decline. Hope everything is all right. Could you please tell me where my user picture is. I've literaly been waiting weeks now, it's ok though, I've got patience..., and, do you think you could make me one of those slide down bits for my userboxes, if you can thanks so much. Plus, if you can get me that online offline thing working, great, although, you might need to do it. Cheers alot -- Lego@lost EVIL, EVIL! | 04:57, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah I know what you mean, I'm a year 6 (which turns out to be grade 6 in America & Canada). Last year at primary, next intermediate (year 7&8). I'm already starting to hate it. -- Lego@lost EVIL, EVIL! | 20:56, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Quick Q
Hey I love the userpage, but some links have changed to blue. Can you help me fix it? It might be good to explain how to fix it so I won't have to bother you if it happens again.--Clyde Miller 01:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh and is there a way to play around with what the talk page says other than what people are saying? Just wondering.--Clyde Miller 01:58, 22 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks dude (I'm concluding from userboxes).--Clyde Miller 03:06, 22 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Naw I'm good. Thanks though.--Clyde Miller 21:08, 22 September 2006 (UTC)


 * P.S. I just realized how dumb my question is. Links are always blue, I just forgot that if you click on it, it turns purple. God I'm stupid.

How are things?
Haven't crossed paths with you for awhile. I see you're still wiki-busy. I have been email'd/talk page prop'd to toss my hat into the RfA ring. I have told all that the time is not right and that I still have a bit more to learn. Soon maybe? I am content doing what I do best...and my user page has been vandalized many times for doing it :) . I am closing in on 12000 edits. I can remember when it was 1000. I've seen quite a few "wiki-friends" quit altogether due to constant frustration from vandals and POV pushers. I'm still here. It's a decent little hobby. I've "coffee break chatted" about Wikipedia to some of my staff. There are a few here(maybe even a few in our offices out west, and in the States) who edit now and then. I have my finance officer hooked. She says she watches pages that her children might view(Pokemon, Bionicle etc) to see that they don't read anything "naughty". Hard task on some of those pages. I told her I've never watched Barney...but I've rvv'd his article more times than I can count. Fun fun fun. Hope all is well with you. Cheers and take care! Anger22 02:29, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

P.S.: I didnt wanna clutter your talk page by pasting the lyrics even though they are a little hard to understand due to the quality of the recording. Gimme a shout if you want the lyrics or if you have any problems while listening. Thanks a lot again!

VP Ongoing Issue
For some reason my name has been removed from the list of authorized users. I was added by Betacommand here, and he welcommed me here. I had difficulties using it, did everything I could myself, was unable to, so I requested assistance here. Instead of assistance, I was removed from the list. Because I have had difficulties on wikipedia recieving help from administrators when requested, this message is in essence a generic template I am writing on all moderators' talk pages and discussion boards in the hopes of recieving if nothing else a response - ideally, however, a solution. Thank you very much and apologies for my impatience. Gregorof/(T) 05:28, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Icons
Your userpage and icons are amazing! I hope you don't mind if I use a few of them in my userboxes? Lily Towers talk 06:30, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh thank you, I like the headers! I was looking over some of the code and noticed all the stuff about online, offline, etc. but I didn't see it when I was on my userpage. What does it do? Lily Towers talk 05:19, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * hahah oh its kind of cute. How would I be able to make that status a userbox? Because the one you have has an icon and text, and looks userbox sizable. Lily Towers talk 05:24, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * lol I dont think you know who you're talking to. I'm so slow when it comes to understanding these things, I dont think I have a monobook.js. It sounds kind of complicated, maybe I'll wait. Lily Towers talk 05:39, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Well I saw some icons but my monobook doesn't look like its doing what its supposed to. Lily Towers talk 06:15, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hey you, long time no speak. I changed my monobook, well User:Mkdw changed it for me. He also replaced the inc("User:Lily Towers/statuschanger.js");; on my monobook accordingly. But now what do I do? Lily Towers talk 22:28, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

Question
Hey, Master Of Puppets how ya doin'. I have a quick question, you have been doing this longer than me so you might know. Is there any way that I can put a code in my monobook to be able to tell when I am online or not rather than have to change it manually. Thanks.

I closed my browser (Firefox) and started it up again yet there is no online or offline icons. I really appreciate your help but I don't know what is wrong. Am I possibly missing something. If you can can you give me an example by doing it for me. Just so I know how to do it in the future.
