I have seen users be able to place an "online checker" for their characters on their player profiles. Is there a BBC code for this or is it strictly something that can be done on HTML custom pages?

There are similar things used for the Furcadia, FAM and FAZ forums and I have the codes for those, but they do not work for RPR as they are HTML codes. Perhaps there is something I am overlooking?

These online checkers consist of images that change when you get online or go offline through a special process. The codes they supply are indeed HTML, but RPR doesn't offer the ability to use HTML at all. I believe you're thinking of CSS customization, which is something else entirely. :)

To make use of these images, you just have to put what goes between the 'img scr' tags into a BBCode img tag. So when I get told this is the HTML code I need to use:
Code:
<IMG SRC="https://www.furcadia.com/services/online/myonlinestatus.php4?username=YOUR_NAME&offline_url=ONLINE_URL&online_url=OFFLINE_URL" ALT="Furcadia!" BORDER=0>

I just take this part:
Code:
https://www.furcadia.com/services/online/myonlinestatus.php4?username=YOUR_NAME&offline_url=ONLINE_URL&online_url=OFFLINE_URL

I fill in the blanks as described by the code generator and put it into the BBCode img tags, so it looks like this:
Code:
[img]https://www.furcadia.com/services/online/myonlinestatus.php4?username=Sanne&offline_url=http://cms.furcadia.com/images/online/offline-blue.gif&online_url=http://cms.furcadia.com/images/online/online-blue.gif[/img]

Which results in this:

Does this help?

It does immensely! But do you have a similar code for the 'Pounce Paw' icon, as well?

Unfortunately I don't, but if you see someone who uses it, you can either copy the image URL they use, or save it and reupload it to an image host yourself!
