h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hello there, and welcome to h2g2! I'm fords, one of the Assistant Community Editors (ACE) and I'm your offical welcomer.

Now, there are many weird and wonderful things to see and do on h2g2, but instead of bombarding you with information I have compiled a useful guide at A811874 which will help you to get acquainted with the site, make your Personal Space all pretty and introduce you to the wonderful world of the h2g2 smiley and GuideML - the Guide's very own markup language which comes in very useful for writing Guide entries and creating a great Personal Space

Any questions? - simply reply to this message and I'll be more than happy to help

Hello ace ye im a ew commer and im trying to edit my page and write a little bit about myself but i cant seem to get to the edit pg ive looked but cant find it on my pg and wen i click on preferences it just says this pg is temp unavailable why is that, thankyou for ur welcome

On the right hand side of the page beside your name and researcher number, there is an Edit Page button. As for the error messages, h2g2 was playing up a little last night, but it should be okay now

hi ace well i found the edit button but it doesnt seem to want to upd8 my details my pg is still black n white it wont upd8 to clasic goo

hi i have no writing down the right hand side of my pg whatsoever everything is down the lefthand side and i have to press alsorts to try and find the edit button,also my intro should b there when i first log on but i have to press alsorts again to find it lol im sorry for being so ignorant about all this but im not very good with the online stuff its all new to me

That's okay, we all have to start somewhere!

Right, I think the default skin is Alabaster (are the buttons all green and orange?), and as you've probably figured out you can change the skin to Goo or Brunel from your Preferences. Your intro is at the top of your page for all who visit your page but as you know who you are, your conversations will be at the top for you

How you getting on so far?
