Quick Questions & Answers

[Honeyman]

Thank you. I remember finding it before, and I couldn't remember where it was.

This one's for the mods, in that I don't want to break any rules, but am looking to maximize input as well. Under what category would you post about websites? I'm really only looking to do one thing, but it'd help to get an understanding for different scenarios.

I want to ask about fan websites in general, which includes Pokemon, but is not exclusive to Pokemon fansites, and get a perspective viewpoint, hopefully from other site owners and site visitors alike, about what they do, and what they look for. I'm trying to find out if trends are leading to certain outcomes. I'm not necessarily looking to link drop or advertise.

Where would I write something like that?

And while I'm here, where would it be okay to talk about, as well as link to our and other people's websites or accounts or blogs or whatever?

Try the Webmaster's Lounge.

And if you have any questions, ask the mod of the section.

I have a question regarding donations.. if we have payed via SMS/phone once, are we able to do it again to accumulate higher value?

Does anybody know why it is very difficult to edit my hack thread now? I mean that the editing feature displays everything as text (including uploaded picture links) which gives me a bunch of jumbled text which makes it nearly impossible to edit.

You switched from WYSIWYG to Standard. Go to your options in User Control Panel and select "WYSIWYG" on the page then click save. Alternatively if you switched to Chrome it won't work, so make sure you're using Firefox or IE or something for that. You can also temporarily change modes in the top right part of where you're actually posting is. It'll look like A/a. Click that and it'll change the mode. :3

Thank you very much! It was because I started using Chrome! =]

I've seen the "Journals" thread in every Pokemon game section, but is there like a place for general journals that are not limited to the games?

[droomph]

Oh, those are the blogs… However, you can only access them if you're a supporter, staff, or more than 5,000 posts.

[AnonygooseD]

Um, so where are these blogs? (i.e. which ones?) also, does the fan fiction forum work? (though what I'm writing is real)...

[droomph]

Those are in the "blogs" section of Pokécommunity, they're not part of a forum.

And the fan fiction section requires a mod to approve the thread first.

Blogs are only exclusive to PC supporters which are tier 2 & above. Blogs are also granted to those who are mods & those who hit more than 5000 posts. Check the FAQ for more info.

And the fanfiction forum does work. Just go here & post something!

[AnonygooseD]

Thanks everyone , I'll check the forum since it's the only place reachable at the moment...

[Hikari10]

For future reference on blog access, since hitting 5,000 posts can take close to two years unless if you post like crazy the best option is donating money to become a Supporter.

If you can't donate to get Supporter, you can always use alternate blogging services like Tumblr.

[AnonygooseD]

Thanks for the reply but I don't have a tumblr and I don't like to use it, so I guess it's the forum for me but thanks for telling me anyway I might consider that in the future

I'll probably end up kicking myself for asking, but how does one "like" a post? halp

You click the icon that looks like a Furret making a thumbs up sign () at the bottom of the post. Not all skins have it implemented so you may have to use a different one.

Since this wasn't answered - yes, you can. If you donate $5 one time and $10 another time, you will be able to be added to the Tier 3 Supporter group. Of course, this won't apply if you donate $5 on one user account and $10 on another - in that case, one would be Tier 1 and the other Tier 2. I hope that helped~!

I wonder if this is right place to ask, but how do I donate to Pokécommunity in Indonesia? I'm not using Paypal, and Zaypay is not covered here.

Based on what I read about donations, they are currently not accepting donations from Indonesia so I guess your only chance of getting Supporter status is through either getting it as a competition prize or if someone sends a gift donation to you.

I'm looking for someone to help me with art or something(not exactly pixel art) and I can't find any forum that seems right. Is my best bet just to find someone who's skilled with Photoshop and ask them?

[LilJz1234]

So uhmm.. how do I make a User Note? I keep looking around the options and all, I can't seem to find it.

[donavannj]

@Dratizard:
Try the Art&Design forum, located here:
http://www.pokecommunity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=21

@Liljz: You can't. That's not something that members can do here. I don't see it becoming public anytime soon, either, as it was the system that was used to keep track of infractions in the past.

At the bottom of the page it shows some settings being on or off (like BB code, Smilies, etc)...how do you change these?

You can't. That's just information telling you what's available to you to use in your posts - only administrators are able to change this. However, the exception is the "[IMG] code is On" rule, as you can disable images via "Edit Options" in your UserCP.
