Design:
Your Design is, essentially, the way your personal profile page looks.
Everyone begins with the default page. In addition to that, we have designed a few templates for you to choose from.
If you are familar with html, you can make edits within any of these templates or create your own from scratch by making changes in the "Template Markup" - see Advanced Section for more information.
Whatever you title your design, that title will show up at the top of your page.
If you delete a template, even if it is your current template, it will not delete any of the information that you had on your page;
that information is stored in your About Me, Animation, and Art section of your "Edit My Stuff" tab.
Avatars:
If and when you get tired of the avatar you chose when you joined, don't worry!
We offer quite a selection of custom avatars - take a look and find the one that fits you best!
Have something else in mind? You can also upload your own!
Basic/About me:
This section is - you guessed it - All About You! Herein lies all information about yourself that you feel inclined to share.
The information will show up in various places, depending on the Design of your page.
Any and all of this information, except your birthday (which is private information - only YOU see your birthday),
can be changed at any time - just click in the box and delete or create as you wish!
You can also set your email preferences from this section.
Animations:
This is where your animations live. You can upload new animations by clicking the "Upload Now" button at the top left of the page, or you can edit or delete your existing animations.
Editing animations, of course, doesn't mean edit the sense that you can alter the animation itself, but you can change the title, the tags, and the public/privacy settings.
Artwork:
This is where your art lives - a private gallery of sorts. You have the same abilities here that you do in the Animation section; you can upload new art, as well as edit and delete existing art just like you would animations.
Games:
This is where you'll find your Flash games. Just as in Animations and Artwork, you can upload new games, or edit and delete the existing ones.
MyPics:
This is your personal photo album! Upload new photos, or edit and delete your current pics.
Friends:
Feelin' a bit lonely? Go check your Friends tab and see how many people are lined up at the top of your page and waiting to be your friend.
None yet? Keep trying. In the meantime, you can gaze lovingly at the friends already in your list.
See someone you don't like? Click "Dissolve Friendship" to end it right then and there.
Want to check out a friend's page? Just click on their name.
Comments:
Overwhelmed by the plethora of information on your page? Click here to see your comments exclusively on a separate page.
You can even edit your preferences so comments are friends only, or deleted comments.
Message Center:
Your very own personal post office, the message center allows you to send and receive messages to individuals or your entire friends list - you can even censor your mail, excluding anyone who is not your friend from private messaging, or "pm-ing," you.
To censor your mail so that you only receive mail from your friends, simply click the box under "Preferences" at the veyr top of your page, and it is done.
Right beneath that is your inbox, and any new messages should show up here.
Finally, the last option allows you to fill out a message, and then choose as many or as few of your friends that you want to send it to.
Want to send something extra special? You can also attach animations and artwork to your message!
Groups:
Groups are kind of like the coffee shops of MyToons. Here you can get together with your friends and chat about whatever you all are interested in.
If you want to explore the groups that are out there, just move your cursor up to "Groups" on the main navigation bar about the tabs.
You can cancel your membership to any group that you are a member of; simply click "Cancel Membership" in the upper, right-hand corner of the Group in your Membership section.
