Unscripted Reminder - Cool Things To Check Out
There are a lot of new faces to U360 popping up each day so I wanted to take a look back at some of the cool features here to give the newbies a quick, easy guide. I hope it gets everyone new to the site more familiar with some of the unique things going on around here.
Choosing Your Style - If you notice at the top left of the site, there are 4 small color icons. Each of these icons controls your personal choice of style to view the site in. Currently, you can opt for the default style (U360 Normal) or try U360 Green, Orange or Blue. I’ll be making another option to the Style Chooser soon so stay tuned.
Unlocking Medals - Perhaps one of the most fun features here is unlocking all the Medals! It was something I came up with last year to show a little appreciation for the community and all the support you guys give. You can check out the Medals Page for a list of all medals available to unlock.
Showcases - If you’re up to let the community know a bit more about you and how you game, then go all out in a Showcase. They’re quick little Q&A sessions between you and me (or Twylyghyt) that are posted for the community to read. We’ve already had quite a few members showcased as well as a few from the Xbox 360 Launch Team.
360 Laws - The images above are from the first Picture Pack made available on Xbox Live Marketplace inspired of course by the Xbox 360 Laws here. It’s been nearly 2 years since I first debuted them and they’ve gone on to receive an amazing response from the community. There are currently 62 of them for you to read up and have a good laugh with.
Picture Packs 1 & 2 - This is probably my favorite addition to the site because it reaches beyond just the internet and puts the community in front of a larger audience. You can download both Picture Pack #1 and Picture Pack #2 from the Xbox Live Marketplace to represent U360 and some of your favorite 360 Laws. Check out the video on how to download them and become a champion! (you’ll understand once you watch)
Gamercard in Comments - The comments you make here are who you are…at least for those of you with Xbox 360 accounts. In your profile, you can opt to have your Gamercard appear in your comments by inserting your Gamertag in the “Nickname” field. Check out the original post for more.
