Hello! First of all...I really like this website! In a matter of days, my writing's gotten so much better - I can hardly believe it myself. You guys are all amazing. It's hard not to be inspired.

I guess I should introduce myself. I don't exist. But if I did, I would! I've been un-existing for fourteen years.

Anyway, I had a few questions.
How do you put a tile background on your profile? I've tried, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Also...I'm in dire need of BBCode 101.

I'm so glad I'm not the only crazy writer-person in the world :)

OK, for your background tile I believe you go to your settings. Then profile, and then edit style. It is somewhere there and you check tile in a small box.

Welcome to the site! :)

Follow this link and click the box that says "Background repeat". It's just another way of saying tile. :) @yubbies21 has already linked you to the BBCodes, so take a good look at those as well!

If you have any questions, you can always bug a moderator or admin. Those are users in green and red. See you around!

Hi, welcome to YWS you non-exister!

If you're going to not exist, this is as good a place as any not to do it.

I can see that everyone has stormed over to offer you assistance, but if you think of any more questions or need help while you're here, feel free to drop me a PM!

Welcome! Don't worry, none of us really exist. We're all figments of your imagination. And you're a figment of my imagination.

Thanks you guys :D

I'm surprised too! I rant to my friends all day about how it's impossible for us to exist, logically speaking.

Because if the universe was infinite, it wouldn't contain anything but itself. Technically. Unless it didn't exist, in which case everything else would, but it couldn't either because there would be no universe, and then...

etc.

Life is pretty much the awesome thing ever, this is true! Behind food. Because food is just awesome. And... okay, I'll shut up now. XD

Anyway, I am glad you kind of not really exist! Your fictional presence does us good! :)
