Your '''[[Special:MyPage|userpage]]''' is a space you can edit and show others who you are, your likes and dislikes, and so forth. Every registered user has a userpage, and there is a lot of liberty on what one can place on it. This guide will help you understand and hopefully inspire you on what you can add to your userpage, as well as warn about what cannot be placed on there. Note that not all the ideas on this page ''have'' to be there.

Diversity is important on the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki, and we like viewing other people's diverse opinions and styles on their user pages, which truly are personal profiles for each user. However, there are limits to what is allowed on a user page.

On the right, you see a personal infobox. It is a quick and easy way for you to display the most essential information about yourself to other users. Feel free to [[Help:Color Chart|add different colors]], other types of information, and whatever you'd like. It functions just like a table, simply off-center. As you become more familiar with wiki markup, you may choose to make it more complicated, such as adding background colors, borders, and more.

==Talk Bubbles==
==Talk bubbles==
Talk Bubbles are a means of communicating, and are popular for their various forms of customization. Many people like to display all the different talk bubbles they've had during their time on the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki in a sort of "display section" on their userpage. If you have any questions about how to create one, you can view [[Template:TalkTextTest2|'''this template''']] or relevant guides in [[KHWiki:Traverse Town/1st District/Moogle Workshop|'''the Moogle Workshop''']] of our [[KHWiki:Traverse Town|community portal]]. If you're fresh out of ideas on making a talkbox (or, if you want some tips on tweaking it even further), you can look through this [[User:Troisnyxetienne/Talk Template Archive|Talk Template Archive]].
