Ah yes, here's the website Cavalls

Yes, all you will be doing is giving people an adoption code in a textbox which links to your image. Then when the pet grows up, upload a new image with the same name as the old one to replace it, and the pet will "grow" where it has been linked from.

This tutorial is for people who are familiar with building a website with FTP. If you've never done that before then it will be very difficult, choose an easier project first. Or just use http://www.myadopts.com/

You can use any text editor you like (like Notepad or Wordpad that are included with Windows). Notepad++ is just a suggestion of a good text editor.

I was wondering how i get the adoptable boxes, found on 'mainpage.php.' incorporated into this code, so my page has the adopt boxes AND has the forum template?

Just paste that part of mainpage.php into your template, it's just regular HTML.

Okay question kind of related. I'm trying to get chibi paint which I believe we have on here? On a site we created that is FreeForums.org based I downloaded the file here: http://www.chibipaint.com/links.html but I have no idea how to intergrate it into the site like it's intergrated here or if it's even possible.
