I fulfilled an

rpwishes request, and thought others might like to use the layout. Also, I'd like to put out a reminder that if anyone is looking for anything specific, I'm always available to be bugged for code here. I seem to get a lot more done when I have requests to work on along side the things I have random inspirations for. AND, please visit the info behind the cut. I have some questions I've been dying to ask you guys, and I really want to get some input.

Blue Christmas
Codes

Do you actually put information in the user info/profile pages (these) of your journal?
If you don't, is there a reason why not?
If you do, what do you put there? Do you prefer something with room for a lot of text? Images of your PB? Do you ever link to SL partners?
Do you like your UIs to match your layout or be something different?

As you can probably tell, I've been thinking about (and wanting to) get some user infos designed, but I'm always at a loss for what to put in my own, which I find frustrating. Any input you guys could give would be appreciated. Links to your current UIs with why you like or DON'T like what you have right now could be useful too.

Thanks for everything

rp_tutorials!

1./2./3. Depends on the game/server. On LJ, There is usually more content and even a brief bio blurb. On IJ, an image of the character, maybe some lyrics that fit their personality, disclaimer if need be and when particularly bored I will fill in the interests.

4. Sometimes I'll match the colors to the layouts.

	That's a beautiful layout! Do you have it in other colors as well? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I just did a blue one, based on a flexible squares layout on LJ, but it wouldn't be difficult to do other versions. Any particular color you're looking for? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wasn't really looking, but I was curioius if you had other colors. I'm a big fan of green. LOL (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I could do a few other versions (green included). I know a couple of other people on here were looking for more red layouts. I can probably have more colors up tomorrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I usually put a link to my character's profile! Mostly because I don't like having a ton of information in the bio, but I don't feel bad when there's a bunch on an entry. Gorgeous layout. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I wish I could take credit for the layout. It's a remake of a flexible squares layout on LJ. Thank you, though! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I love this layout and will be using it eventually. Good job on recreating the flexi-squares version! It looks the same. As for me yes, I always put something in my profiles. Sometimes tables, sometime just an image with a link, sometimes just credits to for whatever I'm using. Sometime all of the above! (Reply to this)
