The Sims Wiki:Userboxes

This page is a collection of userboxes, small colored boxes designed to appear on a user's user page as a communicative notice about the user or to show things they like. You are free to make your own and add them here. If you cannot, then you can leave a request on the talk page.

How to make a userbox
If you only want to display userboxes skip this section.


 * 1) The first step is to look over the Usage section and Example section of Template:Userbox. This is the code you'll need to use to make a userbox.
 * 2) Next, create a template (a page in the Template: namespace; see Help:Namespace for more info) with the name of the userbox. Names of userboxes are generally short.
 * 3) You can now start to make a userbox. Copy the usage code from Template:Userbox and paste it in the new userbox you're making. You can then fill in the fields to create your userbox.

Adding userboxes to your page

 * 1) Find or create a userbox you want to add to your page. You can find many precreated userboxes on this page and its subpages or Category:Userboxes.
 * 2) Copy the code. The code will appear   and is usually displayed next to the userbox. If you can't find the code it is the name of the article minus "Template:" between two opening and closing curly braces "  "''
 * 3) Paste the code on your page.

Organizing your userboxes
If you find your userboxes are all over your user page, then feel free to make use of Template:Userboxes and its companion Template:Userboxesend. These templates will sort everything between them into a table, making all your userboxes into a nice, clean list. For example,

You can also customize the way the table appears or where it can float; see its Usage section for more info.

Traits
For The Sims 3 traits. Excellent article. I tolltay agree with you that the senior housing websites often look very similar. I think communities have difficulty differentiating themselves from their competitors. They would be more successful if they were able to develop their unique selling proposition (USP to us marketers). Many community managers say it's their service. But if many are saying that, it's no longer different. They need to get more specific. What is it about their service that makes them different? It comes down to answering the consumer's question, If I move into your community, how will I be better off than if I go Happy Acres Retirement Community down the street?
