Getting used to profile editing can be tricky, especially if it is on a new site. So I am going to take you step by step on how to customize your profile.
Understanding Your Profile
Modifying Your Profile
Understanding Your Profile
The section outlined in yellow is your mini profile. It is view-able for each of your posts. You can edit it under the Account and Personal Information sections when you click to modify your profile. Here you can insert your gender and location, among other things.
This is your information center. It contains your current display name and the other important information about your account. You can edit it under the Account and Personal Information sections when you click to modify your profile.
This is the awards section of your profile. It displays all the awards the staff has awarded you with. A bigger presentation of them will be shown to the right. Currently there are nine awards to win. The clearest one is an actual award while the rest is a little preview of what the staff gets to see.
This is the recent activity section of your profile. Here you can view your last login date and your most recent posts.
The signature part of your profile displays your current signature which shows up at the end of each of your posts. You may edit this under the Personal Information section when you modify your profile.
This is the friends section of your profile. You may edit this under the Personal Information section when you modify your profile.
