The FAQ! Read here before you post!!!

Welcome to the JA FAQ or Frequently Asked Questions.

Here I will try to answer questions that you may have. Hopefully before you ask them. Here goes!

Why isn't there a forum for this movie?
1. Quite simply because there is no Angel yet for that movie. But rest assured that there WILL be an Angel for that movie and, if you are a valued contributer to the site, it just might be you.
OR
2. That movie has not yet been released yet. Go to the Upcoming projects forum to discuss it. If there is no thread about it there, then you may start one.


What is a sidekick?
Sidekicks are basically Angels in training. Once a member has 100 posts and has been a member for 1 month, then they can become a sidekick. Sidekicks will receive the password to the Angel Academy and there they may begin training to be a full-fledged Angel.
;D

How can I become an Angel?
First you must become a sidekick. See above. After that, you may train in the Angel Academy under one of the existing Angels. When they feel your training is complete, you will be recommended by them for the Academy of Flight where you will complete your training with either me or Dangerbabe. The Academy of Flight is a finishing school of sorts to make sure sidekicks understand the responsibilities and duties associated with being an Angel. If you succeed in the Academy of Flight and there is an available movie, then you are eligible to become an Angel!
;D


There will be more to come, savvy?

AVATARS AND SIGS!

If you are having trouble with avatars and sigs, or you don't know how to use them, this should help you out.

What is an avatar?
An avatar is a small picture that goes under your name. 100x100 pixels or smaller.

How do I get one?
First, go into your Profile screen and scroll down to the Personalized Picture section. There are 2 ways to select an avatar.
1. Select one from the avatar list. Just click one and it will show you what it looks like.
2. Link to an image from the net. Check the box next to "I have my own pic." You need the URL for the pic you want. You put the URL into the space there. Then enter in the size of your avatar. 100x100 pixels max.

What is a URL?
A URL is a web address. You need the web address for your picture. This is NOT the address for a page.

Can I use any picture?
Yes and no. Every picture on the net has a URL... but you can't just take any pic you want. When you put up a URL, you are linking to that picture and the site where it came from. This uses up the site's bandwidth, and people have to pay for that. So, in effect, when you link to someone else's site or picture, you are using up their bandwidth, and even wasting their money. Nobody likes this. You can however SAVE those pics to your computer (right click on the pic, and select Save Picture As) and then host them yourself. It is always best to host your own pics.

How do I host my own pics?
Several ways...
1. If you have a web site or just have some web space, you can upload the picture file to that and use that link.
2. You can purchase web hosting and then upload it to that.
3. You can find an image host. There are several places that do this, some are free, some cost money, some have limits, some don't. The Angels favorite image host is Photobucket. Check them out at www.photobucket.com . It is free, there are few restrictions, and it works great. Just upload your pics, and copy the links.

What is a sig?
Sig is short for signature. That is the text and/or pictures that appear under all of your posts. There is a place in your profile to enter in text or code for your sig.

How do I get a picture into my sig?
You need that URL, just like you did for your avatar. But this time, you have to put it inside image tags. This is BB code for entering a picture. This is also how you put an image into your posts. These are the image tags. [/img] Just put your URL in between the two tags. There you go!
;D

If you still have questions about avatars or sigs, just ask. ;D
