Useful Forms

[concierge]

Use of these forms is entirely optional. Feel free to adapt them any way you like.

IC/OOC Permissions and Preferences

This form is generally used on godmodding/permissions pages, but you're free to use or adapt it in whatever way you choose.

<h3>Character Basics</h3> <b>Name:</b> (The Character's Name) <b>Canon:</b> (Canon Name and Type) <b>Exit:</b> (The exit point you described in your application.) <b>Stuck?:</b> (Are they currently stuck in the hotel?) <h3>Gameplay</h3> <b>Time Zone:</b> (Your time zone, if you choose to share it.) <b>Availability:</b> (Your current availability for this character. Hiatus, very slow, fast tag backs, etc.) <b>Slowtagging:</b> (Your policy on slowtagging.) <b>Open to:</b> (The types of activity you're interested in. This can be super specific to this character, or can just use the shorthand found in the game status post — AUs, backstory, PSLs, etc.) <b>Canon-puncturing:</b> (How you feel about other characters telling this character they're fictional.) <b>Offensive subjects:</b> (Whether or not you're open to offensive subjects in gameplay.) <b>Powers:</b> (Whether or not it's okay for other characters to use powers on this character. It's a good idea to specify for telepathy.) <h3>Interaction</h3> <b>General warnings:</b> (Any blanket warnings/notices you want other players to know about.) <b>Romantic interaction:</b> (What to expect from this character with regards to romance: What their limitations are, what you're specifically interested in, etc.) <b>Violence:</b> (What to expect from this character with regards to violence, and whether you're open to them being injured.) <h3>Godmodding</h3> <b>For anyone:</b> (General godmodding permissions, such as "You can say you saw them in the library" or "They wait tables in the bar.") <b>Special permissions:</b> (The list of characters allowed more advanced godmodding, and what is allowed for each. This is usually friends, family, and/or canon mates.)

Profiles and Biographies

• Four detailed character development surveys


• Another extremely detailed biography template


• All kinds of DW-friendly codes at dreamcodes.


• Character profile templates at RP Tutorials and RP Resources (Note: The coding on these might not always work on DW, but they're a good source of inspiration)

I created a profile template for Gwen's profile that anyone is welcome to use/adapt. The code is here!

I recently happened across this old code for a cell phone template by tessisamess. It even includes a contacts page and playlist page, and with just a little tweaking, I got it to work on my layout. (It does not play very well with the default site scheme, though.) For me, it looked perfect in Chrome, pretty good in Firefox, and passable in IE.

Here's the tweaked code I used:
<lj-raw><div style="margin:0 auto;width:300px;height:500px;overflow:hidden;"> <!----------START HOME----------> <a name="home"><table align="center" cellspacing="0" width="300" height="500" background="http://i.imgur.com/VqrEq.png" style="padding-left:46px;padding-bottom:18px"><tr><td><div style="width:206px;height:331px;background:url(http://themadgirl.dreamwidth.org/file/1830.png)top center;padding:5px;color:#eee;font-family:arial;font-size:11px;"><table align="center" height="100%" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td valign="top"><div style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;margin-top:10px;width:90%;background:#080808 url(http://i.imgur.com/q5Bps.png)center top;border-radius:7px;box-shadow:0px 0px 2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);text-align:justify;color:#ccc;padding:10px;font-family:arial;font-size:11px"> ☑ VOICEMAIL<br> ☑ TEXT MESSAGING </div></td></tr> <tr><td valign="bottom" height="40"><center> <a href="#contacts"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/wBhga.png" title="Contacts"></a> <a href="http://themadgirl.dreamwidth.org/817.html?mode=reply"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/kQAEY.png" title="Message Me"></a> <a href="#music"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/FxjB7.png" title="Music"></a> <a href="#home"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/aJDV1.png" title="Home"></a> </center></td></tr></table> </div></td></tr></table></a> <!----------END HOME----------> <!----------START CONTACTS----------> <a name="contacts"><table align="center" cellspacing="0" width="300" height="500" background="http://i.imgur.com/VqrEq.png" style="padding-left:46px;padding-bottom:18px"><tr><td><div style="width:206px;height:331px;background:url(http://themadgirl.dreamwidth.org/file/1830.png)top center;padding:5px;color:#eee;font-family:arial;font-size:11px"><table align="center" height="100%" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td valign="top"><table align="center"> <tr><td> <a href="http://65th-victor.dreamwidth.org/"><img src="http://www.dreamwidth.org/userpic/7109519/2126980" style="background:#000;height:42px;width:42px;border:5px solid #fff;box-shadow:0px 0px 2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);" title="FINNICK"></a> <a href="http://burn-with-us.dreamwidth.org/"><img src="http://www.dreamwidth.org/userpic/7153713/2132295" style="background:#000;height:42px;width:42px;border:5px solid #fff;box-shadow:0px 0px 2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);" title="KATNISS"></a> <a href="http://withbread.dreamwidth.org/"><img src="http://www.dreamwidth.org/userpic/7065619/2123302" style="background:#000;height:42px;width:42px;border:5px solid #fff;box-shadow:0px 0px 2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);" title="PEETA"></a> </td></tr> <tr><td> <a href="http://theprodigaldoctor.dreamwidth.org/"><img src="http://www.dreamwidth.org/userpic/7373581/1976677" style="background:#000;height:42px;width:42px;border:5px solid #fff;box-shadow:0px 0px 2px 3px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);" title="DR.

You might need to tweak it further, as different themes have different values for things.
