1.  First Tag (Basic) - by Sie

[dohtml]<table class="infotable"><tr><td> <div class="header">Thread Information</div> <b>Date:</b> DD Month (forward/backdated) <br/><b>Setting:</b> Territory, subterritory if applicable. <br/><b>Time:</b> Morning, afternoon, dusk, etc <br/><b>Character Form:</b> Lupus, Secui, Optime</td></tr></table>[/dohtml]

The first one here is basic and useful for most threads, not specifically all welcome threads. This is intended to sit on top of your posting table, if you use one. If you need a mature tag, this tag should go beneath the Mature tag. Remember that your M tag goes first!

2.  Second Tag (Basic - Floated) - by Sie

[dohtml]<table class="infotable" style="float:left; width:225px; margin:5px;"><tr><td> <div class="header">Thread Information</div> <b>Date:</b> DD Month (forward/backdated) <br/><b>Setting:</b> Territory, subterritory if applicable. <br/><b>Time:</b> Morning, afternoon, dusk, etc <br/><b>Character Form:</b> Lupus, Secui, Optime</td></tr></table>[/dohtml]

This one floats to the left of your post table, and is useful if you don't use graphical tables. It can be included inside a wide table, but is not suitable for use with narrow tables.

3.  Third Tag (Complicated) - by Sie

[dohtml]<table class="infotable"><tr><td> <div class="header">Thread Information</div> <b>Date:</b> DD Month (forward/backdated) <br/><b>Setting:</b> Territory, subterritory if applicable. <br/><b>Time:</b> Morning, afternoon, dusk, etc <br/><b>Character Form:</b> Lupus, Secui, Optime <br/><b>Character Mood:</b> Whether your character is in a good mood, bad mood, etc. <br/><b>Requested Participants:</b> Ideally, how many people you want to reply to the thread. <br/><b>Participant Preferences:</b> If you'd prefer someone from a particular pack, a particular demeanor, gender, etc. <br/><b>Thread Direction:</b> If you'd like a random friendship, argument, adventure, etc. <br/><b>Ideal Participant Speed:</b> How fast you'd like your thread partner to reply to the thread. <br/><b>Ideal Thread Length:</b> Whether you'd like a short thread, long thread, etc. <br/><b>Word Count:</b> Total word count of your post <br/><b>Game Points:</b> If you're participating in a pack game, the number of points awarded for your post</td></tr></table>[/dohtml]

This one is geared toward all welcome threads intended for a random partner and is a lot more detailed. Most of the stuff even might be obvious in the thread, but could still be useful for someone who is just checking out potential all welcome threads from the open threads to consider which they'd like to reply to. Delete fields as needed, of course!

4.  Fourth Tag (Complicated) - by Tammi

[dohtml]<div class="infotable"> <div class="header">Thread Information</div> <b>Date:</b> DD Month (forward/backdated) <br/><b>Setting:</b> Territory, subterritory if applicable. <br/><b>Time:</b> Morning, afternoon, dusk, etc <br/><b>Character Form:</b> Lupus, Secui, Optime <br/><b>Character Mood:</b> Whether your character is in a good mood, bad mood, etc. <br/><b>Requested Participants:</b> Ideally, how many people you want to reply to the thread. <br/><b>Participant Preferences:</b> If you'd prefer someone from a particular pack, a particular demeanor, gender, etc. <br/><b>Thread Direction:</b> If you'd like a random friendship, argument, adventure, etc. <br/><b>Ideal Participant Speed:</b> How fast you'd like your thread partner to reply to the thread. <br/><b>Ideal Thread Length:</b> Whether you'd like a short thread, long thread, etc. <br/><b>Word Count:</b> Total word count of your post <br/><b>Game Points:</b> If you're participating in a pack game, the number of points awarded for your post</div>[/dohtml]

This is a DIV version of the previous complicated version! There's not a ton of difference between using a DIV and a table; some players prefer one and others prefer the other.

5.  Location Tag - by Zero

This provides a neat little map slice of the big 'Souls map that shows exactly where your character is. O:

[dohtml]<span id="location"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/5TaeS.gif" id="pushpin"></span> <style> #location{background-image:url('http://www.soulsrpg.com/images/BSMapPixels_subterr.jpg'); width:150px;height:150px;float:right;border:1px solid #000000;margin-left:5px; background-position:25% 66%;} #pushpin{position:relative;left:100px;top:20px;} </style>[/dohtml]

The only things you need to touch are the last couple lines. The pushpin stuff moves the pin, so all values should be between 0-150px. The background-position: % stuff changes where you are in the map. I'd suggest just eyeballing it. Here, I wanted it set around CD, so I saw it was about 1/4 or 25% of the way over horizontally and about 2/3 or 66% down vertically.
