! Header 1
! Header 2
|-
| cell 1.1

Mysterious font size problemI am trying to make the font size in the userboxes on my userpage draft look like those on my actual userpage. Myself and others have tried and tried to figure out what is setting the size of the font but we can't seem to work it out. How can I make them the same? —Sean Whitton / 20:35, 2 August 2009 (UTC) Current time?I'm trying to get my user talk page to display the current time, as it is to me, which is UTC -6 year round. I've tried {{Utc | -6}} which works fine, but doesn't update, and I can't find anything else which works. {{Time}} has a CST time zone, but it automatically adds daylight saving time.

Confirmed UserHi. Can an admin please make me a confirmed user, so that I can upload a couple of fair use pix (that can be uploaded to wp, but not wiki commons)?

Text Alignment ProblemsI am currently building my new userpage in my Sandbox. So far it is extremely complicated (to me) and I barely understand the formatting. If you go to the Sandbox, you can see my first sentence doesn't actually go to the end of the space. I was wondering if anyone could fix this, or even slightly simplify my page, because I know it can be a lot simpler and I've spent hours trying to fix this small problem. Thanks, Forentitalk 11:42, 17 December 2009 (UTC) Help me figure out how to remove this white borderOn my user page, there is some white border around my image and userbox section.

Help Centering textIs there a way that i can center text on my user page.--Steam Iron 02:41, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
Table issuesI have recently started using tables to format my userpages, and I'm experiencing a few problems. The first one is that on this page I have 3 boxes that are very unevenly balanced. I would like it for the bottom of the boxes to meet at the same line, if that is possible and for the two right boxes to spread out a bit more in the process. The second problem is the background colour of those tables - as you can see, there is a white colouring outside the boxes - how can you change that colour? Any help with either of those problems would be very greatly appreciated. Thanks, Forentitalk 07:05, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
Firstly, thanks a lot - you obviously put a lot of work into helping me. To respond,
Basically, I want the bottom two boxes to end at the same place. When this happens, I think the right two boxes will be able to spread out more, so the text can be viewed better. Thanks again and heres the link again. Forentitalk 12:50, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

I want it to say my username in black font somewhat larger than the other text at the top, with the icons selected as navigation. Also if the color theme could match that would be awesome. Problem with it now: The border is hitting my main text box, and the inner border only extends to 80% (until the user sidebar). Any help would be awesome.

I have a problem relating to the same thing. I copied and pasted the code that Sonia uses, but for some reason the font only shows up differently under the Comic Sans MS font. When I try either Astur, Banco, Caslon Antique, Jim Crow, or Neuland font, (which are fonts that I like) it only shows up as the same obscure font (I have no idea what font it is, all I know is that it's always the same font). What am I doing wrong? B.T.W. I left it with the

New messagesHi, I have got a note from a bot in http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:78.55.254.168 . I have read this message.

Simple userbox helpIf you look at my talk page, there's one centered userbox. I want to put one more userbox directly under it. It seems like it should be simple enough, but I can't figure it out. How would I go about doing this? Swarm X 05:44, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Userbox messHi! I just discovered userboxes. I already have many and plan to add a few more to my user page (I'm still in the process of reviewing the gallery to pick my choices). For reasons unknown to me blank spaces appear out of nowhere as if there were line breaks sending the following userbox to the line below and leaving a tabulation space before it. I have now idea why or how to handle it. I'd like to have a block of 3-userbox-wide lines at the top of my page. I'd appreciate if someone would explain me how to handle this, as I plan to add more userboxes in the near future and it wouldn't be cool if I have to bother you again with the same problem after I added more.

Userpage and {{Scroll box}}On User:Albacore/Userpage, how would I make the DYKs scroll box align right under the header, like under the "Articles created" subheader?

collapsable items that don't fill up the page horizontallyOn User:Cloveapple I'm looking for ways to collapse sections of text without having a bar that runs all the way accross the page. I just want the colored bars to stop short of the column of userboxes on the right. I'd rather not set the collapsable stuff as precise pixel width since I don't know what screen width other people have. I copied a NavFrame example and put it on my page to show where I'm trying to get the collapse effect. On User:Cloveapple you can see the lavendar stripe all accross the page saying "my searches" in the spot where I would want to put a few such sections. As you can see it's too broad and covers userboxes. Suggestions? Cloveapple (talk) 19:56, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
