Watching Topics Or Forums
What Is It?: Watching topics or forums is handy when you want notifications of when someone posts in a certain topic/forum.
Why Use It?: It's a great way to keep track of your personal threads, like fanfictions and 411s.
How Do I Use It? : Simply click on the "Watch This Forum" or "Watch This Topic" button in the top right-hand corner.

Updating Your Status
What Is It?: Your "status" is the line above your post as well as the top line of your profile. By default, it says "(MEMBER NAME) has yet to set their status".
Why Use It?: You can tell people about your mood, about your day, about yourself. ^^
How Do I Use It? : You go up to your user box in the top right-hand corner. Click on your username, and choose the option "My Profile". Next, simply click on the "Update" button on your profile and type what you want you status to be. Then click on "save", and you're done!

Changing Skins
What Is It?: Tohosomnia always has at least six skins/layouts for you to choose from!
Why Use It?: You can pick which skin to use. It varies from DBSK layouts, to individual layouts. However, only Buddies may change their skin.
How Do I Use It? : PM a Director and let them know which skin you would like as the main skin!

Marking Sections Read
What Is It?: Each section has read or unread topics which are marked by graphics.
Why Use It?: This can help you navigate those topics which you have seen from the new ones.
How Do I Use It? :
For one section: Click on the graphic next to the forum section to mark all topics in it as read.
Example:
For the whole forum: Go to the very bottom of the forum (available on any page), and click "Mark Board as Read."

Adding A Signature Or Avatar
What Is It?: An avatar is the image which shows under your username in the forum, while a signature shows under your post having either words or an image.
Why Use It?: This is just a fun feature you can use to show your own or others graphics, a quote you like, favourite thread link e.t.c.
How Do I Use It? :
For Avatar: Go to your panel on the upper right hand side, and click your name. Scroll down to my settings. Once in the settings page, press the profile tab and click on change avatar. Then you can upload an image, or you can give a link to an already uploaded one. Press save changes and you are done!
For Signature: Go to your panel on the upper right hand side, and click your name. Scroll down to my settings. Once in the settings page, press the profile tab and click on change signature. This works the same as a post, so to add words just paste them and change to whatever font you like. To add other things:
--------
Personal Messaging
What is it?: It's an efficient way to communicate to someone without having to wait for them to go on.
Why use it?: It provides a self place for you to communicate with someone. It also prevents outsiders from reading your PMs and ensures privacy.

Signature you place in image tags: [img][/img] Link you place in link tags: [url][/url]After, press save changes and you are done!

Thanks so much! I didn't really understand the skins thing when someone tried to explain it to me yesterday,
but now I do.
It's so cool that we can change it, too!
Thanks thanks thanks!
--EDIT:--
I don't have the changing of skins options. It's weird.
Mebbe it's just staff...?
NVM!

wowwwww, Tohosomnia is so much cooler than what Shinki was! question though, has the 6 different layouts thing gone into effect yet? Because I dont see the drop box for it next to the language drop box....
