== Question == |
|||
Hi, is there any way I can create my own userbox on Wikipedia? I am an alumnus of the [[University of Montevallo]] and I would like to create a custom userbox for my user page. Thank you very much for your help. [[User:A Proud Alabamian|A Proud Alabamian]] ([[User talk:A Proud Alabamian|talk]]) [[User:A Proud Alabamian|A Proud Alabamian]] ([[User talk:A Proud Alabamian|talk]]) 03:45, 20 January 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:{{Yo|A Proud Alabamian}} Well, I don't know a lot about them but, for basic userboxes there is [[Help:Userbox Maker]], and for anything more advanced, you can take a look at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Userboxes]], there's some useful info and links there, as well as the talk page for any additional advice. Good luck - [[User talk:Thewolfchild|<span style="color:black">w<span style="color: red;">o</span>lf</span>]] 09:10, 20 January 2024 (UTC) |

Hi, is there any way I can create my own userbox on Wikipedia? I am an alumnus of the University of Montevallo and I would like to create a custom userbox for my user page. Thank you very much for your help. A Proud Alabamian (talk) A Proud Alabamian (talk) 03:45, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
- @A Proud Alabamian: Well, I don't know a lot about them but, for basic userboxes there is Help:Userbox Maker, and for anything more advanced, you can take a look at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Userboxes, there's some useful info and links there, as well as the talk page for any additional advice.
