Question

Can you ever make your own userboxes? well? Pece Kocovski 23:38, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

The Game ?

This userbox {{User:Scepia/The Game player}} refers to a page deleted and protected (The Game (game)). I think it can be removed from Userboxes/games --LuisAugustoPeña 21:54, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Merry Christmas! Pacaman! 20:26, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

I am not sure if someone has previously made it, but can someone skilled in Userbox creation make a Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War (DoW) Userbox? Thanks! (If already made, pls direct me there. Thanks again!) Nic tan33 13:33, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Card games

All these card games could do with some new userbox icons... Morganfitzp 23:09, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

...OK, some have been made for Cassino (game), Euchre, Golf (card game), Sheepshead and Skat based on the highest-ranking cards in the game, and for Cribbage based on the maximum count total of 31 (I was thinking of making one that says "This user always loses at cribbage" with the number "19" as an icon, but I restrained myself.) Any other icon suggestions for specific card games? Morganfitzp 16:24, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Strip Poker? Enigmatical 22:29, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

SSB

The Super Smash Bros. Userbox at one time had the Super Smash Bros. logo. What happened? DL 13:54, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair use violation, probably praetor_alpha 20:00, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

neutral userboxes

This user would prefer to indicate that he has and plays a Nintendo DS without claiming its superiority to the PSP, and that he has and plays an SNES without claiming that it was the "last great console". --Johnruble 19:49, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Where's the "This user is a neopian" userbox?

Or, for that matter, the "This user likes to play card games, board games, video games, computer games, mind games, word games, and just about any other type of game you can think of" userbox? ~ ONUnicorn (Talk / Contribs) 20:14, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

PMD

I made a userbox for PMD. You can change the rescue rank to whatever yours is. Mine, for example, is Diamond. -- ~PinkDeoxys~ 23:44, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

PMDThis user's rescue rank is Diamond.

Organizing

I suggest there be (rough) categorization by genre in the Favorite Game section. Like FPS, Strategy, RPG, etc... Anyone up to it? praetor_alpha 16:21, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Tabletop Gaming

Added two race/faction Userboxes for Warhammer / 40k, hopefully people will feel inclined to add to them. Unfortunately there's no categories for people who root for a given side knocking about on Wikipedia, so I took out the inclusion code. If this changes, all for the better, it can go back in then.

Chess Revert

Who reverted the page to only three chess userboxes? I reverted this edit, and if anyone wants to put their chess boxes on the page, please create a subpage or request them. I don't agree with the change that was made. JuWiki 16:22, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

how do u make user boxes

i asked a freind how to make user boxes and he directed me here but now i dont know how to make them thx --Rsivad 22:20, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Did you read Wikipedia:Userboxes#How to construct the box? That should answer everything. I do construct user boxes on request -- sometimes. So far, only one request has been accepted. However, I will listen to what you need. I am a lousy artist though. You need to either supply the graphics or accept what I find (or don't find) on Commons. I also will require feedback on the layout and colors used. Will (Talk - contribs) 03:51, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Guild Wars userboxes

Hmmm I've made some GW userboxes for each profession but I'm hestitant to put them up here since most userboxes here tend to be concerning games in general - although I do notice there's a favourite characters section. Just wondering if it's alright for me to put them up (and if not, is there any other place that I could?).

Zoo Tycoon

This user is a zoo tycoon.

{{User:Usbk/ZT}}
What do you think? I didn't put on a Zoo Tycoon screenshot (fair use and all that crap) so I put on some seals. If you like it, please place it on the page. --Cuddly Panda 10:22, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Jurassic Park

This user is part of the Operation Genesis project.

{{User:Cuddly Panda/Userboxes/JPOG}}
Here's another one from me. Put it on if you think it's good.

Tabletop Roleplaying section

The Tabletop Roleplaying section looks completely screwed up - I'm not sure how to go about fixing it, though. Lethe 11:54, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Template:tlu vs. Template:usbk

Both templates seem to be used at random, resulting in "What links here" not always showing up. Should I replace the tlu-template with the usbk-template throughout the page? --Buxbaum666 11:21, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

We should have one style (t1u) or (usbk) for this page, I dont mind either way, though I changed mine from t1u to usbk. Salisbury Steak (complaint dept. - contribs) 11:35, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

I started by changing the "Favorite Game" Section. There may be a problem with some of the above userboxes that say "See template for usage." If I replace those with the usbk-Template, there will be no room for the text. But is this really needed, anyway? I think the usage is pretty obvious in most cases. --Buxbaum666 23:05, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Problem with too many userboxes on one page

The userboxes on the bottom don't show up. This seems to occur when too many userboxes are on one page. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? --Buxbaum666 07:58, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

That's not true. I just tried to split the categories up, giving the largest categories their own page, but I still got the same issue. So I am not sure what the problem is. Maybe the usbk template is the problem? Salisbury Steak (complaint dept. - contribs) 18:13, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Why don't we just go to the t1u format. If people want to they can access the what links here function from there. When this page was changed, some boxes became like the area at the bottom of the page. If nobody fixes it by August 30, I will put this page the way that it was. Salisbury Steak (complaint dept. - contribs) 15:23, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

usbk is not necessary

I have tried to fix this page several ways and have come up empty.
So, unless there are any objections with good reason, I will fix this page as this page needs to be fixed at the bottom, removing the usbk templates in favor of the t1u templates.
The what links here is not necessary because anyone can find the what links here function on any wiki page.
I have copied the necessary areas and are switching them to t1u format (on my userspace), and then this page will be transformed as soon as I am finished with that. Salisbury Steak (complaint dept. - contribs) 23:22, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Request line

4-player chess (an ancient game), ST's 3D chess, Tactics, Panzerblitz (& variations), wargames generally, Victory in the Pacific, dominos (& Chinese variations), Triominos, Trivial Pursuit...? Trekphiler (talk) 12:02, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Fantasy Sports

I added a new userbox to the Sports section for Fantasy sports. (Like Fantasy Football). I am not sure if this is the best place for this, feel free to move if you think there is a better place. Micah008 (talk) 21:56, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion

@Ahunt: I suggest that the board games be given their own gallery page. I also suggest that the card games be given their own gallery page also.Catfurball (talk) 22:16, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

 Done, at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Card games and Wikipedia:Userboxes/Board games. - Ahunt (talk) 16:55, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
