Hey,I'm Crayon. How are you guys? Are you confused-or maybe you're a left out person here? I welcome you to the Refuge for people who have left or maybe turned away from Foo to roleplay. You don't have to be from Foopets though. Everyone,any age,is welcome here. Some people have been asking questions and wondering about how to post pictures and etc. And there have been many guides. To sum it all up and make it easier-I combined and edited them all into one post. I hope you find this useful. You can post questions and give accurate answers here as well.
Okay,so lets start here....Who doesn't know how to make your words italicize,underline,strikethrough,or bold? Don't be afraid to admit it. Its fairly easy,actually.

FAQ
Welcome to the FAQ! If you have a question,or an Answer and Question you want to add,post below. Here are some Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I put up a profile picture?
A: If you would like to set a profile picture for your account here on Roleplaying Refuge, simply scroll up. Under the main title, you will see a long, thin rectangular box with many icons in it. As you scroll over these, you will see the commands for your homepage. The second-to-last icon, which looks much like a driver's license, will take you to your profile. Once there, look to the big box surrounding your profile information. At the top, there should be the following words: 'Member's Bio' ; 'Modify Profile' ; 'Bookmarks' ; 'Social Networks'. You'll need to click the 'Modify Profile' button. Before you can edit anything, you'll need to type in your password in the space provided (This will be under a pre-filled box with your password in it, next to words that say 'Password, again'.) Then scroll down until you see the words in the left-hand column that say 'Avatar URL'. Find a picture on the internet and copy its URL (The words and numbers in the search-bar at the top where you type the internet address) and paste it into this white box. If the picture is wider than it is long, change the sizes (The two boxes under the avatar URL box) to 100 for the first one, and 80 for the second one. If it is taller than it is wide, put 80 for the first one, and 100 for the second one. Once this is done, scroll down and click the button that says 'Modify Profile' and it should be saved correctly.
Q: How do I reply to a post?
A: First off, you must be logged in. If you are logged in, there should be a white box under the topic you're replying too. This is the 'quick reply' box. If you want to make a reply with bold or italic in it, go to the bottom of the last post on the topic you're replying too, and look at the icons on the righthand side of the box that contains it. There should be a blue paw-print there. Click on that, and it will take you to another box for replying.
Q: How do I reply to/send a personal message?
A:
--To reply to a personal message, look at the top of your screen. There should be a header that says hi to you by your user-name. Beside that it will tell you how many messages you have, and how many are new. Click on the number of messages. You will find yourself in your inbox. Displayed will be all of your personal messages. Click on the one you want to respond too. At the top of the message, to the right, there should be a blue paw-print. Click that to reply. You will be taken to a reply screen, much like the screen used to reply to topics.
--To send a personal message, you must first decide your method. You could compose a new one, reply to an old one, or go to their profile and send it. To compose a new one, go to your messages, as described above, and look to the right of the message box. There should be an icon of a letter (Like the kind you send at the post office). If you click that, it'll take you to the message screen, and you can type in the name of who you want to send it too. NOTE: The user-name you type in must be correct, so I don't recommend this method. The next method would be going to their profile, by clicking their user-name, then clicking 'Send personal message'. The last method is going to your messages and replying to their message to you. Simply click on the message and click the blue paw to the left of the message box.
Q: How do I post pictures?
A:
To post an image, simply copy the link out of your web browser, after pressing 'full sized image' that is. The link will be up in the search bar, where you originally typed the site address. Paste the link where you would like the picture, and put right in front of it, with no spaces between the code and the link. Then you go to the end of the link and put right against it but with a forward slash like this: / in front of the 'I', but after the bracket. Make sure you use the right brackets, and the right link for the picture. Try not to use pictures with copyright symbols on them, or with large watermarks, as they may be copyright, and you do not have permission to use them.
Q: How do I become an administrator, a moderator, or an ambassador?
A:
This is simple. To become a respected member of any site, you must first respect others. You can post something information, such as a guide, or become a respected member of the community. You must be able to get on at least once a day, with the free time to take care of a site, as well as still have a normal life. You must have proper grammar, and a good demeanor, to make others comfortable to talk to you and ask you questions.
