For claiming and review purposes, I understand wanting all of the information to be easily accessible. There's nothing more s**t than sifting through a thousand quotes and pictures and useless crap to find what it is you're looking for. HOWEVER - Quite honestly I think the skeleton is an eyesore. In my opinion (and the opinion of many others, though I'm not going to list them or expect you to care) bolding and underlining is supposed to be used for emphasis and effect. Having the larger part of the skeleton bolded AND underlined? That's a little too much. Perhaps it's just me, but it's distracting and hard to read through to find errors and such.

Now, I'm not trying to ask if you can delete your rule about using the profile skeleton - but after a character has been claimed, is it alright to ALTER the skeleton? Take out the underlines, add some colour, maybe some proper headings or separations... I mean, technically, you're all done looking at it and combing through it, so what's the harm in making it..well. Not ugly? Prettier?

*no offence intended to anyone who created the skeleton. Different strokes for different folks, you know?

Must've missed that - I just copy pasta'd my old profile from the old guild - but, the question still stands on alterations after acceptance.

Just as long as you keep the same format and information

So, I can add colours, but I can't really change anything else about it?

(just checking - don't want to get in trouble.)

I was thinking more along the lines of separating it into a few posts, kind of like a simplified version of this. Morrigan has much less information than Marcel, currently, so.

Certainty our policy is simply and straight forward. To make our lives easier and to make campers feel less intimated by more complex profiles we would like no more than two posts for a profile at this time. These two posts must include the filled in skeleton in one post and the extra stuff that might be needed in the second post (like the questionnaire if you are creating a greek camper or the sample RP for a Roman camper).

You can of course add colors and some other small details but right now you must follow the skeleton provided.
