THE NEW ETERNIA!

[Evelyn van Buren]

Welcome to the new layout!

This skin was designed as the first of three inspired by the Lycans, Vampires and Hunters. Greyback is based on the Lycans' underground world of metal tunnels and darkness. There will be a Vampire skin to come and hopefully a Hunter skin after that.

Here's a quick rundown of all the new features that have been added to Eternia in this layout upgrade. This is not a complete list, so if something seems puzzling, feel free to shoot me a PM.

PROFILE FEATURES:

• Modify Profile Just by Clicking Profile in the menu bar. Selecting Cancel will just take you to your profile page instead of the Edit Profile page.
  
• Personal Font Setting on Modify Profile page instead of the wonky template system (because half the time, the templates didn't load).
  
• Your Avatar should show in the overhead dropdown tab (the arrow on the top-left). If it doesn't, please visit your profile page (not Modify Page) and then go to a new page. The picture should show.
  

ROLEPLAY FEATURES:

• Eternia Notepad: That's right, we have our own notepad! This handy little widget stores info on your browser's cookies, so anything you type in there will be stored when you hit Save, even if you close out your browser (or it shuts down on you). Deleting your cookies will also delete any saved text. Do check it out.
  
• Style tags and fancy tables in a post: If you're familiar with CSS, you can now use it to style your posts by clicking on the [style] tag UBBC button (or just typing [*style=...]YOUR TEXT[/style*] (without the asterisk). You can also use tables to give your posts some structure. See the FAQS page for an example.
  
• Spoiler tags (to hide certain parts of your post or a super-huge image) have finally been added. Look for the UBBC button.
  

SITE FEATURES:

• Quick Links sidebar accessed by that arrow icon on the upper-left corner (on menu bar). It'll let you quickly browse boards, access your PMs and log in and out of different accounts.
  
• Navigation Bar Shows PMs: When you're on the homepage, the nav bar (that grey strip right between the dropdown menus and the boards) will show your PMs. Clicking the ◄►on the extreme right of the nav bar will show the regular navigation again. On any page other than the homepage, the regular nav bar will be shown but you can access your PMs and the current time by clicking that ◄► arrow again.
  
• The CANONS page has had a fun little renovation too.
  
• The AFFILIATES table has been modified. Clicking our banner will give you Eternia's banner code.
  

There are a few other subtle changes, but I'll leave that for you to discover.

I understand this is a big and sudden change, so if something is frustrating/confusing you, or you'd like to know where such-and-such page went, shoot me a PM and I'll do my best to help.

Cheers,

Skye.

Oops, I forgot to add a few extras in the posting page:

• We have Enhanced Table Tags, and these let you put backgrounds in tables, make cells in a table span a certain number of columns, etc. Play around with that and see.
  
  
• We also have a Float Image option. Basically it works like this. You put left or right align tags around your image and place it wherever you want it to appear in your post. I've placed mien at the start so it'll appear on the extreme left of my post:
