Hi. It appears you're new here so let me explain how things go down:
1. Emoticon spam is a huge no-no. Don't do it. Alternatively, don't use emoticons at all unless it's a joke (really, people only use cookie monster for puns or jokes).
2. Colors are also incredibly useless unless you're in A. A RP thread, or B. A thread you make with info in the OP, but not overly used.
3. The picture dimensions and file size are 75x75 and 75kb, if I remember correctly. Animated avatars can be used, but require compression.
4. Don't double post or triple post. The Edit button exists for a reason.
5. If you make a thread, you can lock it in case things go bad. You CANNOT lock in Drama. Saying you will means everyone laughs at you.
Have a nice time. BTW this text was not made from me.
