== I say... ==
 
 
 
Shouldn't there be a Poland userbox? Because I was born from Poland. =C [[User:AbeX300|AbeX300]] 02:18, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 
:Will create one. Anything you'd like it to say? -- [[User:Smashman|Smashman...]] <sub>([[User_talk:Smashman|t]] • <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/smashman2004 s])</span></sub> 02:19, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

:::I think it would help a lot of newbies to know how to change the text in pre-made template.

== Examples ==
 
I accidentally undid them because I thought they were vandalism, but they were breaking the page page layout anyway -- [[User:Nineaxis|<span style="color:#FF8C00;font-weight:bold">Nineaxis</span>]] {{mod}} [[File:Duck Gib.png|12px]] 03:06, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== "Uh... a little help here?" ==
 
 
 
I am not sure how to drag/copy a Userbox or the Weapon Library to my Profile. Can someone please help me? (<- Noob question. :3)
 
: Under each userbox is bracketed name like <nowiki>{{User info box}}</nowiki>, just copy that into your profile. -- [[User:Nineaxis|<span style="color:#FF8C00;font-weight:bold">Nineaxis</span>]] {{mod}} [[File:User Nineaxis sig duck.png|12px]] 04:18, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

== Added argentinian userbox ==
 
 
 
And i find it slightly annoying how there is a "South american" nationality box.
 
--[[User:Latin Geek|Latin Geek]] 11:28, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
:Argentinian user boxes sound good to me, and America is a BIG place. So being more specific sounds fine by me. {{n}}[[User:Smashman|<span class="bur">Smashman</span>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> {{bur}} 11:42, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Dueling Badges Userboxes ==
 
 
 
I want to make the Dueling Badges userboxes display the level of the owner's item, but i don't know how to. Can someone do it for me, please? --[[User:SLBros|SLBros]] 21:50, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Added Hong Kong userbox ==
 
 
 
Because honestly, nobody except me is from Hong Kong? [[User:Nanosheep|(nanosheep_inc)]] 00:16, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== How do I sort it correctly? ==
 
 
 
Hello, I have the weird problem that after I copy some template codes for the Userboxes, they look like a Staircase.
 
, yet the templates are placed in 1 row.[[User:Yotsubato|---Yotsubato]] 02:35, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Move to [[Team Fortress Wiki:User info boxes]]? ==
 
 
 
I'm not sure why this is a main space article. It should really be moved. &ndash; [[User:Smashman|<font color=#507D2A>Smashman</font>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> 01:46, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

==Scottish Infobox==
 
 
 
The current text in the Scottish infobox reads "This user is Scottish, and naeb'dy'd best be thinkin' o'herwise." This isn't actually a Scots translation, just a bad attempt at a Scottish accent. Could it be chaned to something like "This breuker is Scottish, an naebody shoud think ithergates!" This is a proper translation. I'd do it myself, but I don't know the rules about editing userboxes someone else has made. [[User:Cooper Kid|Cooper Kid]] 12:26, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
:Meh, if you see a glaring error then it's always a good idea to fix it yourself. If the creator doesn't like it then they can revert it. It ''is'' a public userbox, after all. --[[User:LordKelvin|LordKelvin]] 17:10, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
:I changed it last week and it seems to have stuck pretty well. Or maybe no-one's noticed. Anyway, mony thanks! [[User:Cooper Kid|Cooper Kid]] 03:50, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Parameters ==
 
So I figured out how to put the numbers in for the "Dynamic" boxes, but how do you put in a Steam ID? [[User:Piggie|Piggie]] 14:01, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
 
:Nevermind, I figured it out, it's user=, not id= or steamid= or anything like that.
 
:Nevermind, I lied, I still can't figure it out. I tried the userbox template followed by |user=STEAM_0:1:25970203, |user=0:1:25970203, |user=1:25970203 and |user=25970203, and none of them work.
 
 
 
:: The explanation text is somewhat poorly worded. Only a couple of the userboxes take a steamid, for example: {{tlx|User Steam|nvis}}. The rest only accept numbers, since the stats can't be dynamically retrieved. <span style="color:#577;text-shadow:#222 1px 0;white-space:nowrap">— [[File:Gear_Gib_5.png|13px|link=User talk:NVis]] [[User:NVis|nVis]] </span> 14:38, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
:::OOOOOOOOOH I get it now. You still have to put the numbers and stuff in yourself, but when you click on the box it takes you to that profile. I thought maybe it would automatically retrieve my playtime/achievements/etc for me. Thanks for explaining. [[User:Piggie|Piggie]] 14:43, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== How to make userboxes ==
 
 
 
How do you make userboxes anyway? i wanna know because i have an idea for some. [[User:Awesomesauce|THE3STOOGES/HAMMERHEAD]] 04:32, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

== Moved Canucks and Red Wings ==
 
 
 
I moved the Vancouver Canucks Addict and the Detroit Red Wings addict user boxes to a new section labelled "Sports" Just because of the sheer amount of sports user boxes that could be made and just to make it a little easier to find them. [[User:Meter1060|Meter1060]] 18:24, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Parameter ==
 
Why isn't there any information about how to correctly enter the required parameter for a user info box? [[User:SilverHammer|SilverHammer]] 04:47, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
 
:Good question! I've added a brief explanation to the [[Help:Userboxes]] page. - '''[[User:Cooper Kid|Cooper Kid]]''' <small>([[User_talk:Cooper Kid|Blether]])'''·'''([[Special:Contributions/Cooper Kid|Contreebs]])</small> 01:30, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Film==
 
 
 
Can we make a section for film-related user boxes? We have the section for games, so why not? I was going to try to work on some, but I'd like to know what others think. [[User:Shane Alvarado|Shane Alvarado]] 23:35, 25 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
: Yes, I like this new idea. [[File:Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.png|16px|]][[User:Violencejr123|<span style="font-size:13px;line-height:16px;font-family:TF2 Build;sans-serif;" class="qua_strange">Violencejr123</span>]] 23:39, 25 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
:I probably won't be able to work on some until Tuesday, but of course I would invite anyone to go ahead. Like you would need my invitation. Is anyone in opposition? [[User:Shane Alvarado|Shane Alvarado]] 21:53, 29 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
:: Hmm I should do the most watched flims like saw or fast in the furious. [[File:Painted Batter's Helmet C36C2D.png|16px|]][[User:Violencejr123|<span style="font-size:13px;line-height:16px;font-family:TF2 Build;sans-serif;" class="qua_strange">Violencejr123</span>]] 21:55, 29 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
:::I've started [[Team Fortress Wiki:User info boxes#Film|it]] now. The film is {{w|Akira (film)|Akira}}, my current favorite. Let's keep going. [[User:Shane Alvarado|Shane Alvarado]] 13:06, 2 August 2011 (PDT)

Can anybody help me figure out where to put them? and by the way, the youtube one is dynamic.
