I just started playing this rp site and my character that I have is a Shinigami named Koori Yuki. So I have two quick questions, first how do you put a picture as your profile picture? I just cannot work it out. Second, because I'm new to this whole role-playing thing, how do I join a rp? Do I just enter it or I do I need to get invited, or pm the person who started the thread or what? Can't wait to actually start playing ;D it's going ot be heaps fun!

*looks around* Ehh, Wicky's not in atm, so I'll go, even though I'm not as epic.
Hey, welcome to the RP and such.
To put a picture, click on your user name, and then hit "Modify Profile". Then, scroll down 'till you hit "Personal Information", and look for "Avatar". In the box beside it, paste the URL of your picture, and then fill in the Avatar Height and Width (mine is 100x100, and I think that's, like, the standard or something). Hope that's what you're looking for.
And, if you want to join an OPEN thread, you can. Otherwise, you gotta ask or be invited. Or you can start one.
Soo, um, yeah. 'Guess this is where people then say 'Read the rules' and such, but since you already got an approval, I figured you already have. Well, hope to see you around, and sorry for the terrible welcome.

Hey, is there anyway to get rid of the scrolling story on the side of the screen that says 'the story thus far...'?

Unfortunately, no =P I could get rid of it, but it sums up the story of the site. I've noticed that with some slower running computers, when it's not fully loaded, the entire block of text does appear over the links. As such, I may end up doing something else with that rolling screen (An announcement of sorts or something similar).
As you may have noticed, the rules and Guides of this site can be located on the left hand column. It's always wise to read them over, and review them every now and then, as the rules and Guides tend to get updated every now and then.
If you have an approved character, as mentioned above, you can create your own thread and title it 'Open' for an open invitation to anyone that's around. You can also throw in a post in the Plot Discussion subforum, asking others to join it, or find other story lines that you may find interesting. Xat is also another good place to introduce yourself to your fellow players and will more likely than not, be the most useful succession in joining an RP.

So is that story the story from the actual manga or is it just made up for the purposes of this site?

Most of it is simply made up; the current status on the Manga is that the fight is still going on. We simply jumped ahead, assuming the results without going into 'too' much detail on the actual fight.
