Alright, I know that their are going to be a lot of questions of little things. Well, I will answer them right now!
Signatures, or siggies, are little images that are below your post. You can either get one from a website, like Savor the Dreams..., or you can make one yourself using MS Paint, Paint Shop Pro, or another graphics program. To put an image in your signature, put the URL in the image code:
I don't like any of the siggies on Savor the Dreams...:
Alright, if you don't want any of those, there are TONS of others that will offer graphics also, like Warriors Wish, StarClan's Secrets, StarClan's Mercy, etc.
And if still don't want those, go to the shops and have someone make you one or request one in the request section.
An avatar is the little image under your name and stars. To get an avatar, once again we go to Savor the Dreams..., but this time, look through the avatars. Once you find one, right click on it, select 'Properties', and copy the URL. When you make sure you have copied it and you are logged in on the forum, go to the forum and click on 'PROFILE'. Then, click on 'MODIFY PROFILE', scroll down, and paste the URL in the 'AVATAR URL' box, and then you can adjust the width and height. Most avatars are 100x100, but you can mess around with sizes.
Good programs to use for making avatars and siggys:
Photoshop
Paint
Image Ready
Paint Shop Pro

One thing before we go on, when you roleplay, USE THIRD PRESON!!! I don't want to see 'I's and 'me's and 'my's, unless the character is talking. You won't get in trouble if you don't, but it is easier.
A Undescrirptive One Liner:
Flamecloud woke up.
Well, it tells us something about Flamecloud, namely her action. But it is, sadly, UNDESCRIPTIVE.
Semi-Literate:
Flamelcoud's eyes shot open. Her dream was so terrifying. She looked around camp and could see the first lights of dawn. Other warriors slept peacefully, but Flamecloud got up.
Better. Descriptive of what happened before she 'woke up' and after, but still... Some roleplayers may want more than that, so...
Literate:
Flamecloud came face to face with a deadly Shadowclan warrior. His dark pelt ragged and ripped like he battled a dog. He towered over her little ginger pelt, casting a large shadow. Fear crept into Flamecloud, but her eyes were fixed on the enemy. His paw raised to strike, she turned to run. But he was too fast. Pain filled Flamecloud as claws were raking her back.
Flamecloud's eyes shot open and she shot up. Panting heavily, she looked around the warrior's den, seeing no sight of the ugly beast. She only saw her felow warriors, sound asleep. Stepping over her denmates, she quietly crept out of the dark warrior's den. As she stepped on the cold, Thunderclan camp, she looked up, expecting the light of the bright sun rising. Instead, the dull lights of dawn were resting in camp. Flamecloud sighed and creeped back in the den to sleep.
AHA! That's the ticket. Very descriptive and gives a great basis for other roleplayers to go by. Excellent!
Where do I post my role play character's stats?:
Please post them in the 'Character Bios' board under the 'Roleplay' category. There is a form, so use it.
Is it true there will be a Warriors Movie?
No. I am very sorry, but there will be no Warriors movie. At one of the Wands and Worlds chats, Blizz of Warriors Wish asked that question and this was the answer that Vicky gave:
I'M A ROGUE??? WHY??:
Ok hon, hold on. You won't be Rogue for long. That just a little fun thing to describe how many posts you have. Here is the legend.
0-4 = rogue
5-9 = kittypet
10-24 = loner
25-74 = kit
75-124 = apprentice
125-249 = warrior
250-499 = senior warrior
500+ = starclan member
Hey! How did some people get to be deputy or medicine cat?:
The Deputies and Med. Cats are moderators that Hawkmask chose herself. She knew that these people were trustworthy and were active. But remember, they are authority figures so please respect them!

One note about colouring:
You will see that in the post message box that there is a colour bar. To work it, you move your mouse to the colour you want, click on the color you want, then the colour will appear in the white square. Now that the color is in the white square, click that square and there you go!
How Do I Quote Someone?:
You click on the little button in the upper right hand corner of a person's post called "quote"

General Questions:
[/center]Is it true there will be a Warriors Movie?
No. I am very sorry, but there will be no Warriors movie. At one of the Wands and Worlds chats, Blizz of Warriors Wish asked that question and this was the answer that Vicky gave:
Vicky Holmes: Okay, this is a really important issue to clear up. I'm sorry to say that there are NO plans for a Warriors movie, even though we have had lots and lots of discussions with major film companies about this. This isn't to say that there will NEVER be a Warriors movie, but please don't get your hopes up! The reason for this is that the animated movies around at the moment tend to be larger-than-life, laugh-out-loud family films that adults can laugh at as well as kids - think Shrek or Cars. A Warriors movie would be much more serious, dealing with big issues like death and loyalty, which doesn't translate well to conventional animation just now. It might fit with a manga-style approach, but there isn't a mainstream market for this in the film world just yet. So we'll have to keep our fingers crossed...
