Hey howareya, Phantom? Thought I would drop in, say hi, and ask a few questions. I know, I know, it seems like all I ever do is ask you questions, but since you have been so helpful, and since we are friends and all now, I thought I would pick your brain. I only really have two questions: 1)You know the boxes that some people have on their userpages that are similar to a trainer-card from the games, only they have their current Party and their moves too? I am thinking like {{u|Kenji-girl}} has on her page. She has one for her SoulSilver, Platinum, and Pearl carts. I am going to call them a "trainer-box". How do I do that/Where would I get the code from? Do I just ask someone that has one on their page? I would ask KG, but she is a senior administrator, and she seems busy, and I know she has better things to do than hold my hand while I am trying to figure out the code. 2) Also, I have seen some people with a box similar to the one that {{Ash}} has on his page or that {{u|KCorp4000}} has on his page, which is like a Character Info Box, or "CharInfoBox" as Ash's page calls it, for short. How do I do that/Where would I get the code from? Should I just lift the code from Ash's page? If so, is there someone I should ask for permission first (like KG, since she is a Senior Admin and Leader of Project Anime)? Or should I just go and ask KCorp4000 how he did his, and if I could borrow it, if I promise to customize it/credit him? As usual, that was a lot more than 2 questions. They just seem to multiply like {{p|Lopunny}}, the darn things. As always, thanks in advance for all of your help/advice. --[[User:Jediknightdtv|<span style="color:blue">JediKnight</span>]][[User talk:Jediknightdtv|<span style="color:green">DTV</span>]] 02:18, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

:No problem! The party template Kenji-girl has is a custom template, so you would have to ask her if you want to use her code; otherwise you can just use the generic [[Template:Party|party template]] like what I have on my userpage. As for the CharInfobox you mentioned, that's exactly what the template is, and you can find that [[Template:CharInfobox|here]]. To use those you will type in <code><nowiki>{{party}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{CharInfobox}}</nowiki></code> respectively, and you can fill in the information the same way that it's filled in on just about any page where that template has been used. Some templates will even have a model of how they are to be used on their talk pages, but I know the character infobox doesn't have that. I hope that helped!

::It does, thank you. I took a look at the talk page for both of them, and also for [[Template:Pokémon|Pokémon]], and I grabbed the raw code and dumped it on my sandbox, but I am thinking that I do not need it. Am I right? At least for the Party and Pokémon Templates, I am thinking, because I can just edit them like they said on their talk pages. But what about for the CharInfoBox, that I am thinking I need the raw code for. Am I on the right track? I am going to go play in my sandbox. Thanks again. --[[User:Jediknightdtv|<span style="color:blue">JediKnight</span>]][[User talk:Jediknightdtv|<span style="color:green">DTV</span>]] 03:45, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
