Ok I been meaning to post about this but I wanted to wait longer and see if I can figure it out. I see on lots of other players character bio's that they have different designs and style writing everywhere, and I been wondering how they do that, I even tried out different things when I was editing mine, and nothing. How do you do it?

I like to download a font (or just use one I like) and then write whatever I want it to say into a program like GIMP, and then save it as an image. Afterwards, I'd upload it to Photobucket (or another image hosting website) and insert it into the bio using the link provided.

Make sure you're copying in a url ending in an image extension, such as .jpg, .gif, .png, etc. Many image hosting sites will ONLY prominently give you a url that's something like "www.imageshack.com/3h2j4/" which will take you to a lovely page featuring their logo and advertisement in addition to your image. You can't use that in a layout, you have to right-click on the image and select "copy image location" to get a direct link to the image that you can use here.
