Introduction
Welcome, new member! I am delighted to see you have joined Reflections , and if you haven't yet (but are reading this to see if you should), I hope this gives you a good idea what our site is all about
Our forum is based on the events that have happened after Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort died. Our site involves Death Eaters, Order Members, Blood Traitors and Mud Bloods. Everyone plays an important part here.
Each member will be able to live out the life of a character of their choosing, weather that character is a Cannon Character ( Created By R K Rowling ) or an Original Character.
That's the short explanation of our site. Here are the details:

2 :: Registering
This is a very simple process, so it shouldn't take you anytime. If you've already registered, read through this and make sure you've done everything, then go onto 3 :: Editing Your Profile.
Step One :: Click on the 'Register' button under the Reflections banner.
Step Two :: Fill out the asked information. Please make sure to type your password correctly the second time it asks or you'll just have to go back and retype both passwords again, and the same with your email address. The security code was just implemented (I'm guessing) to help stop unwanted members, and type EXACTLY as you see - I know sometimes it's hard to tell when the letters/numbers are close together or not fully there, but try your best.
Step Three :: Go to your email account. Find the Account Verification letter and click on the activation link.
Step 4 :: You've registered you're account successfully! If you're having problems, feel free to email me at tom@tomsalerno.com and I will help you as best I can. If all else fails, make a new account!

3 :: Editing Your Profile
This is the fun part, because this is where it becomes personal and more customized!
Step One :: To edit your profile, click on the 'Profile' button under the Reflections banner, then click 'Modify Profile'.
Step Two :: You can change your password or email if you like, but I doubt you will, so go onto Display Name. Your display name must be the name of your character. If your not sure of what their name will be, simply put your name. We do not like names such as 'iluvgrant349475' as a display name, it's really annoying to see.
Step Three :: What gender are you? If you don't want people to know, don't put either. For location, if you do not want to disclose where you live, simply put a random country or don't put anything.
Step Four :: Website Name & Url - this is a good place to advertise your own site or someone else's. If you don't have either, just put Reflections
Step Five :: An avatar. You can choose from the ones we have (which are pretty lame...) or your own. You can find them anywhere on the web. If you have one on your computer, simply make an account to an Image Hosting site (like photobucket.com) and upload your photo there, then put the url here. Usually, the size is 100x100 for most avatars. Personal text can be anything you wish - usually, I put something connected to the avatar.
Step Six :: Signature! I love this part, because you can put anything (not against rules) here, like a picture of your character, picture of you, pictures of useful things, or text from your favorite book, a quote or just randomness.
Step Eight :: Instant Messengers - if you don't have one of them listed, I suggest you get at least one, because they are a great way to communicate with other members and even Instant Message Role-Play. To get a messenger go to these links, they are FREE:
Step Nine :: What do you want to see on the forum, and what do you want others to see? You decide here. I suggest Opt-In on mass emails, because they contain important information and events you don't want to miss out on. I also think you should say 'Yes' to Show Signatures, Avatars and Images, because they are really fun
Step Ten: : Final one! This is time zone according to where you live. You should know what it is. If not ask your parent(s) or look on the Internet for it.
If you are experiencing any difficulties with editing your profile, or you feel that someone else is editing it, please PM a staff member or post a thread in the 'FAQ' board.
