This page is a collection ofinformation and discussion on '''talkboxes''', small colored talk bubbles designed to be used when leaving messages on [[help:talk page|talk pages]] as a way to distinguishesdistinguish users messages from others. You are free to make your own and add them here. If you cannot, then you can leave a request on the [[project talk:Talkboxes|talk page]].
 
== How to makecreate a talkbox==
#The first step is to look over the [[Template:User talk bubble#Usage|Usage section]] and [[Template:User talk bubble#Example|Example section]] of {{t|User talk bubble}}. This is the code you'll need to use to make a talkbox.
#Copy the code from {{t|User talk bubble}} and fill in the fields to create your talkbox.
#Next, create a template (a page in the Template: namespace; see [[Help:Namespace]] for more info) with the name of the talkbox. Names of talkboxes are generally short.
#You can now start to make a talkbox. Copy the code from {{t|User talk bubble}} and paste it in the new talkbox you're making. You can then fill in the fields to create your talkbox.

;How to get an image
{| style="background:none;"
# Select an image from the [[:Category:Talkbox images|talkbox images]] or any on the [[Special:ListFiles|site]]. The preferred size for an image is 50x59. You can change the size of an image using an image editing tool or site (such as Picnik, Photoshop, Paint.NET, etc.)
! style="width:300px;" | Code
# Copy the name the title of the page after "File:" and paste it after <code>|image= </code>. Ex. <code>|image= Alexander Goth-SE.jpg</code>
! Result
 
==How to make a talkbox reusable ==
#Create a template (a page in the Template: namespace; see [[Help:Namespace]] for more info) with the name of the talkbox. Names of talkboxes are generally short.
#Copy the code from {{t|User talk bubble}} and paste it in the new talkbox you're making. You can then fill in the fields to create your talkbox.
 
Once you have filled in the fields, your word bubble is ready to be used. On talk pages, you can now include it with this code:
<pre>
{{<name of template>
|time = ~~~~~
|text = Blah blah blah.
}}
</pre>
