I discovered this website several months ago and became addicted to it. So I figured, why not create an account in it?
July 6, 2007--Last night, I reverted some vandalism. I'm so pleased with myself.
Super deformed
I am not sure if the ? in your statement means that you don't know what super deformed means or that you have no idea why I changed the link. chibi is a term that means "runty" or "shrimpy" which was mistranslated as "cute" or "little" (our own Wiki page added the words "small beauty" to chibi in Japanese for effect) and has come to mean the same thing as super deformed to a lot of American fans because of fan-fiction or fan-art of "Chibi Goku" or whatever. The correct usage in reference to genuine Japanese media is super deformed. Chibi is accurate in cases like Sailor Moon's Chibiusa because she was being mocked for her small size, but in most cases it is used inaccurately. I thought I was correcting that link, as it seemed an incorrect usage, but if "chibi" was the actual name of the item in the game (which for some reason didn't occur to me) then I was incorrect and I apologize. Examples of Japanese usage of the term super deformed (or SD) include SD Valis, Super Deformed Gundam, SD Snatcher. JohnnyMrNinja 05:47, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
I totally see where you were coming from on that one. I guess I'm just too used to the term by now. But thinking about it, super deformed hardly sounds like a cute way to portray people. It just sounds like they were in a horrible accident. Guess that's what we get when we use an English term made up by Japanese people: confusion. JohnnyMrNinja 06:59, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
Userboxes
I think here you'll find everything you need to create a userbox.

I don't find it easy to explain. It's better for you to ask an administrator, i'm sure they'll be able to explain better than me. It's very easy, you'll see.
