Good morning/evening/night newbies of vizzed!  As newly appointed mods of the newbie forum, it is mine and Juliet's duty and honor to take care of you!  We strive to make vizzed a friendly place where you feel not only welcome and involved, but also wanted and respected!

However, we understand that being in a new place can be somewhat overwhelming or confusing, so we've set up a plan to help you out!  Even more fascinating..... we're going to -reward- you for seeking this help!  What's better than free help and free handouts?

How about free help and free handouts for SEVEN DAYS?  ^.^  On vizzed, all newly registered members are considered 'newbies' until they've posted 10 times and been on the site for at least seven days.  Those seven days should be easy and fun, so we're going to celebrate each and every one of them!

Every day (for seven days) that you log in, we're going to post in your newbie thread and give you a new task.  You must complete each day's task to get each reward, and you can't move on to a task without completing your current one.  We hope that these missions will not only be fun, but that they will help you learn the ropes of the place we love so dearly. In addition, if you complete ALL seven tasks, we'll reward you with any item in the site shop that's under 5,000 viz!

If you're reading this, you've already likely made a newbie introduction thread.  Congratulations!  You've earned a free simple layout (the decorations behind the text) designed by either me or Juliet, and we'll tell you how to apply it soon!  (If you haven't created an introduction thread... what are you waiting for!?! Scroll to the top of this page, hit the red button that says "New Thread" and tell us about yourself!)

So what is your first task?  Well, let us know that you read this thread.  Go back to your newbie thread, and -summon- us.  Summoning a person is very useful when you want to get their attention, because it alerts a user that you've 'called' them to a specific place on the site.  You'll be able to see such alerts on the top right of the page, under "Notifications".

Try summoning me and Juliet!  To do so, make sure you press ENTER after a line of text. Then type the name of the person you wish to summon, place a colon after their name, and hit enter again!

For example, if I wanted to summon Juliet, I can't do so by typing it here after this line. Juliet:

See? It didn't work.  Instead, I have to go to a separate line, like this.
Juliet :

You can tell she was summoned, because her name appears as it would on her profile, and it's boldened.  Go give it a shot to win your second prize and next task!  Remember, summon both of us!
