A month ago I created an online tool to assist people with their profiles and gifts. Decided to create a separate topic about it. https://status.3dxchat.net/profile-editor If you want to spice up your profile but are lost in the syntax, this online page I created will help you with the markup and syntax. You can either start from scratch, or paste your current profile code into the white area. In real-time, it will give you a preview of how it will look like in the game. It also provides you the character limit that is in place, which is 1000 characters for your profile, and 240 characters for gifts. But within these limits, you can do a lot of magic. To get you started, I also added a few presets. Preview

Here's a useful suggestion that should be dead easy to implement. In Second Life, the profiles include a UI tab called "Notes", where one can type in comments regarding each individual we encounter. These notes are visible only to the user, and are really handy for tracking where we met, mutual friends, birthdays, ingame info, etc. I've seen peeps on my friends' list here whom I haven't spoken with in months, and often struggle to recall their 'story'. A Notes tab would be so useful. And as the code already exists for us to edit our profile info, adding a UI tab set to private seems easy-peas to me, from my somewhat limited experience with javascript, C+ etc. Anyone concur?

How to put colored text in a profile? heeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

Hello, I know that it's not in your highest priorities, but please consider the following: 1) Rich Text Editor in profile editor and gifts I believe we all know what kind of trouble editing our profiles and gifts is needed when we want to use colors or different sizes on text. OK it's not so much trouble for me (but still takes more time) but it's like rocket science to some people. So, since you support colors and sizes, why not just add a rich text editor in the profile editor and gifts so that we can be more creative with our messaging? Also, add some basic UTF characters like hearts, stars smiles etc in the rich text editor. 2) Do not allow us to use more characters than allowed in gifts Most of us have discovered with the hard way that there is a limit to the number of characters we can use in gifts. Which means: Scenario A: We spend 10 minutes on composing a nice gift message with colors and everything and then (after we already spend 300 xgold) we discover that the message gets cropped and some tag becomes broken and the message is basically ugly to read, plain white and with the hex codes and tags unparsed. Scenario B: We compose a nice long gift message and after we spend 300 xgold again, we discover that only half of the message is displayed and all the meaning of the message is lost. In both scenarios we are obligated to re-send and re-spend 300 xgold to correct the message and make it shorter and ask our friend to delete the broken one. So, please add limits (like a counter that tells us how many more characters are left) and add a rich text editor to make our lives easier Regards
