Chameleon3322 is taking a short wikibreak and will be back on Wikipedia occasionally, time permitting.

The story of Chameleon3322
I'm relatively new to Wikipedia, and would like to get to know more about Wikipedia. I hope to contribute as much as I can and follow all policies that are encouraged to follow. I have been editing some minor things here and there on Wikipedia for a few weeks but have never got around to actually become a member. Now that I have created my own account I will try to contribute more to Wikipedia and encourage others to do the same.
Signatures in Wikipedia are identifying information that you put after writing a comment on a talk page. They tell other editors who wrote the comment and when. This can be done by writing ~~~~.
Signatures can optionally be spruced up with colors. To add color to your signature, go to the
Preferences link at the top of the page. In the nickname box, enter [[User:MYUSERNAME|<font color="MYCOLOR">MYUSERNAME</font>]]. Replace "MYCOLOR" with a color you like, such as "red" or "green". Replace MYUSERNAME with your username. Finally, check the "raw signature" box, and save your preferences. Now, when you type four tildes ~~~~ in a talk page, your new signature will appear.
The color names that can be used in standard
HTML are given in the standards document
here. Using the hexadecimal RGB-style colors (such as #008000) you can choose any color you like from about sixteen million, not just the 140 colors that have names in standard HTML.
More complex signatures are possible; however, your signature as typed into the box above should not be unnecessarily long. Long signatures make pages larger and harder to edit, and are discouraged.
