- Allow me to pass on something a wise man once told me: "The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all." But that doesn't really make a whole lot of sense within the context of this forum, so let me also pass on something a crazy man once told me: "Find a template that you like and see how they did it. Then, and this is the critical part, do not make a template. Templates, with some exceptions, suck." Have I answered your question? - T.L.B.

- I agree with Leddy, but I'd substitute "wise sage" for "crazy". Obviously. Sir Modusoperandi Boinc! 22:49, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
- If your trying to make a "colored box", you can copy the code into an article, but remember to get rid of the categories. The {{box}} template is useful to make colored boxes if your not familiar with wiki code, although it can be a bit buggy with more complex formatting. --Mn-z 20:59, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
