But I would appreciate if someone could provide some GDFL or free images that suggest each strip (or as many as possible).  We can't use fair use images due to limitations of the licensing.

thread_title:  Tools that can be used to create Nation and state user boxes 

message: I would now like to offer a trio of tool templates for listing user boxes.  Together, they create a table with columns for Name (which shows how to call the box), Created By (defaults to read "Me"), and a sample of the box.  The samples can normally be displayed with no code.  All of the boxes I list at User:Will Pittenger/User Boxes are now displayed with just one line of code per box.  I even was able to group boxes by type.
You use  to begin the table.  It adds the header section.  Then, for each row, call .  Then, to complete the table, call .  Only the row template requires any parameters.
BTW: If you would like to list templates like I do at User:Will Pittenger/templates, feel free to check out and use , , and .  They require more parameters than the user box templates, but you will find they are more flexible too.  However, you still call them in the same order you do the user box templates.

message: I'm not familiar with programming, so sorry that I can't provide a demo for this. Rhotics are "non-lateral liquid consonants", and are mostly written as r or similar variants in many languages. I suppose if this userbox stands, it should be put in the grammar section or elsewhere.
Maybe the text can be: This user loves rhotics very much./ This user is a fan/lover of rhotics. And then rhotics links to its article.

replies: text: "This user doesnt [sic] have a clue how to make userboxes" does not help bring together users with similar interests.  "This user is emo" might have more weight to it, but are people really just interested in "being emo"?  I can see "This user likes emo style music" being more acceptable, but still.  "This user is a ninja" unless you study ninjitsu this shouldn't be a userbox, and in that case it should be "This user studies ninjitsu." (Tdmg 07:26, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

One for lovers of Slipknot (like myself) that has the 'S' logo on the left and something along the lines of "This user can't see California without Marlon Brando's eyes" or some other well known Slipknot lyric...
And last but not least... something for lovers of Radiohead, the "no suprises" one is cool, but i'd love to see one with the 'Bear' logo on the left and something like: "this user may be paranoid, but they're no android" or some other Radiohead lyric.
If someone wants to make these, that would be great. Alternatively, if someone would could possibly to teach me how to create userboxes, that would be great also - as I could then do them myself.
