Disclaimer

This userbox etiquette is part of a project of UBX (Userbox) uniformization applied in part by some administrators on their own userboxes. This etiquette tries to obtain overall sameness of style by being visually attached to the default wiki theme. This sameness is achieved by attributing the page background color to the userbox's "id-c" and "info-c" values. Another way of reaching that sameness is setting a userbox height (id-h) of 45 pixels, this value is also set to the picture (id value). You are not obligated to follow the etiquette as you wont get banned for breaking it. It's your UBX. your style. However in the case of let's say less niche/more general Userboxes (like an admin status UBX, User info UBX like {{User:TabbyGarf/MemberFor}}, {{User:TabbyGarf/UserHelper}} or {{User:TabbyGarf/Translator}}

Template

Such a userbox can be made thanks to multiple ways. For a simple one you can use this template provided:

{{userbox
| border-c      = #fff
| border-s      = 2
| id            = [[File:filename.extension|45px|link=]]
| id-c          = #333
| id-h          = 45
| id-s          = 12
| id-w          = 45
| info          = sample text
| info-c        = #333
| info-fc       = #fff
| info-s        = 8
}}

To follow more the wiki's theme you can set the border-c value to "#e87057" to fit the Hyperlink color.

If you dont want to bother touching any code you can use this UBX generator as long as you follow the template values for "id-h", "id-w" and "id" in case you use an image.
